I’ve barely started S6E9 (literally; just past the opening credits) and I already want to turn off the episode and delete it permanently from my collection.

Hm? Hm? Hm?

Oh yeah. Skeezy McKidnapper was way more punchable.

Hell, Nog was more punchable at times.

[-] cattywampas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Early Nog was kinda punchable. Captain Nog from "The Visitor" is awesome.

This is the dude that, IMO, proves that Data feels emotion even without the emotion chip. He managed to piss Data off enough that Data would have killed him, had he not been transported right in the same instant he pulled the trigger.

Not necessarily felt emotions, but after spending that amount of time with Fajo Data knew he would continue doing the absolute vilest things possible for his own personal benefit up to, and including, remorseless killing of his own underlings. And he'd be able to sleaze his way in and out of justice so there was no moral point to taking him to the law.

Side note, if you haven't already you should look up the side-by-sides of him and David Rappaport, the actor originally cast in the Kivas Fajo role who had to be hurriedly recast after Rappaports attempted suicide

I can think of far more punchable faces from DS9 alone, not to even mention any other series...

Your left hook is strong, my child.

Fisticuffs, pugilism, the manly art of self-defence. Come on. Isn't this all wonderfully barbaric? Go on, take a poke at me. I know that's really what you want to do. Come on.

"You hit me! Picard never hit me!"

"I'm not Picard."

As much as I hate Winn, her presence (so far) has not illicited as much rage as Jack has accomplished in the literal 2 minutes of screen time I’ve allowed him to have right now.

Neurodivergent characters are difficult to play well. Definitely didn't have a good handle on them in the nineties.

All things considered I think they did a pretty good job. He reminded me alot of someone I went to elementary with. They were insanely smart, for example he could recite the entire periodic table at 10 years old from memory, Atomic mass and everything. They were bullied relentlessly by everyone. I havent seen them in years but i could totally imagine he grew up to be similar to Jack.

Only episodes I skip of almost all the shows I habitually watch.

When all of them start signing. Ugggghgghgghggghh

What’s that, my child?

/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.
