So star trek nerds I require your help.

I'm currently knitting a star trek potholder for a secret santa. It looks like this but it's black and gold (each side is the inverse of the other).



Now since potholders come in groups of two, should I make another identical one in black and gold, one in red and black or gold, or should I make one with another insignia on it. The Klingon insignia would be easy enough to adapt in some combination of red/black/gold.



What should I do, dear nerds?

I'd say you can up the degree of difficulty now that you've mastered the bendy triangle of the starfleet insignia.

Why not bump down the denier and aim for the stars with a still tableau worthy of handling hot casserole dishes?

Alas that would require it to be the size of a quilt and this needs to fit into 30x30 pixels.

Good point. Yes, you should make a scene from Quark's quilt next once the training wheels are off.

Now, for all its labial qualities the insignia of the Cardassian Union would still be the most suited to the task of comfortably gripping hot stoneware. The Cardassian people have a remarkable tolerance for dry heats.

For a non-autistic answer, identical is boring so do the klingon one

Whatever nerd you are making them for will be totally pumped

Although if they're like the previous poster they may not have the social skills to express it properly and they may say something like "Hurr, you should have made a black and white picture of blah blah blah!" and then sit back with a smug look on their grubby jowls, feeling like they were really witty and awesome

Don't be offended, they are basically a mongoloid

RE: star trek knitting.

I think if you did one in red with the Federation logo in white that would look pretty good. I think for future star trek knitting projects that's the way to go as it's the uniform colour and the badge.

I think the best one to send a goon would be gold (yellow) with a white badge, and on the other side have "I'm a nice guy" as we all know Geordi is the last living goon.

For the Klingon one, I'd do that in black and red (if you have the wool to do it) with the symbol in red.

The other logos I think are all a pain in the arse in comparison

The other option is to knit one that is gold and white with the Federation badge with KIRK on the other side and a red and white one with PICARD on it. They can make their kettles fight each other then.

I know the most recent one was about who beams stuff into people's rectums, but I'm also sure this is as common a recurring theme as Klingon dongs have ridges.

I'm sure that Worf's ginormous Klingon meatshits were too much for the Federation plumbing to handle and he had to cut them into smaller pieces with his bat'leth before they would flush down.

The Klingons would have a specialized blade with unique stances and motions for that purpose.

The fact that nobody in human history has fought with anything remotely similar says a lot, since humans have tried to use just about every even slightly usable weapon imaginable.
