Stole those from my sisters all the time to be Geordie

[-] Nythos@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Not sure how doing this relates to being from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne

[-] hactar42@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

A'd blame it on auto-correct, like, but a think it was just me proper dodgy spellin'! - my horrible attempt at a Geordie accent

You didn't say "wy i man" so you have room to improve.

I had one of these as a kid! I only ever wore it as a Geordi visor, because I couldn't find a way to wear it that didn't look ridiculous.

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 28 points 3 months ago

Is there anyone here who DIDN'T do that? lol

[-] angrystego@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Even the moms and sisters did that.

All you gotta do is take a look.

Moms spaghetti

[-] NoxAstrum@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago

Yes, and they had the ones with the spiked teeth just like the real one did.

[-] neon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 3 months ago

Yes, 100% but I wasn’t a Trek fan back then. So I was just “the guy from Star Trek”

[-] lath@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

No. We were all Cyclops, laser eviscerating each other.

Huh. Well there's a kink I didn't know I had.

[-] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I don't know who Geordi is but pretty sure i have done this.

[-] Case@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 3 months ago

No.

No sisters, and my mom didn't wear them.

I would have though.

[-] singletona@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Yes... yes I did.

[-] kandoh@reddthat.com 5 points 3 months ago

Absolutely, it made pretending you were Geordi easy

[-] pseudonaut@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Why wouldn’t you?!

[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I did it with headphones.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.
