Are there ever vulcan captains of ships, or is it just a matter of having human captain, high-functioning autist backup, on basically every ship? Is data just an attempt to make less horny stand-ins for vulcans? More importantly, why do I care enough to ask?

Vulcan captains would be a terrible idea, they would either be venting 49% of the crew at the first sign trouble or be sat in engineering getting the self destruct ready.

Vulcan ships are probably similar, Vulcan captain mostly Vulcan crew and a smattering of (probably constantly borderline suicidal) members of other species.

Any human serving on a Vulcan ship is constantly fantasizing about venting atmosphere after three months tops. Occasionally a human has to be teleported to the brig because he starts ranting about the ship being "too loving hot and full of goddamn Vulcans" while eyeing the atmosphere control panel.

Yeah, but you'd still take a job on a Vulcan ship just in the hopes you'd be serving during a mass Pon Farr outbreak.

I wonder if all the Vulcans on a Vulcan-only ship have their pon farrs synchronize after a while. That would be one crazy weekend.

Chipotle, Kim, guy who got busted in Starfleet academy, the doctor, guy who killed saruman. Even Neelix would have made a better captain.

Vulcan Captain - "Sorry Human, you enlisted for the wrong ship. That ship over there is scheduled to have a Pon Farr outbreak in the next few weeks. This ship is only planning to have a Jamie Farr outbreak."

I was thinking it would be pretty cool to work on a Vulcan ship but yeah you're right the heat thing. I bet it's like working with a ship full of those horrible women in every office that pitch a fit all summer about how it's freezing just because the AC is blowing a temperature below 80.

There are definitely Vulcan-captained starfleet ships, and in fact there was a Starfleet ship populated entirely by Vulcans in DS9. They kicked Sisko's rear end at baseball.

I always thought it was funny that the Vulcan captain was outwardly racist to everyone and Sisko was the only one calling him out on it their entire Starfleet careers.

Whats the point of the symbiote if it doesn't make you smarter? They double up on brains but dont seem to see any boost to their intelligence. Trill should be dominating the galaxy but they seem to spend their time being mediocre officers in star fleet. Dax seems to be one of the most important trill but they get posted to a lovely space station next to a planet full of cowards.

Once you get up to 5-10 they are crippled by severe nostalgia and their every thought and sentence is dedicated to "You remember the time......" It's like an Onion article I read one time about WW2 where it was like "Massive Casualties at Normandy today as soldiers immediately start reminiscing about the battle, deploying strategic rocking chairs and corncob pipes to wistfully remember the machine gun fire as it was happening"

The writers wanted that to be forever, but he said no loving way is a show about a black single father going to end with him abandoning his kid and fought hard against that. So instead he says he'll just be gone a little while, at least from our perspective (NONLINEAR TIME STUFF). I mostly feel bad for Kira and Odo, but I guess odo has his work cut out for him spending the next century teaching those idiots not to be reactionary racists against anyone not made of goop.

First human warp 5 ship going further into unknown space than anyone? Entering a dangerous region of space on a military mission where you are under constant attack and have no way to re-supply? At least there are steak dinners, cakes and pies on constant display. Show = Bad * I thought the decon gel thing was just a joke from the first couple times they did it, but nope. Season 3 T'pol and Phlox are stuck in the chamber and Phlox is talking about some disease while the camera zooms in on T'Pols belly button and you watch her rub inside her waistband / her legs. That's more transparent than 7 of 9 being eye candy. Fat Shat Sings fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Aug 25, 2016 |

They knew they were going into that zone where they would be stuck indefinitely. Probably just filled a shuttle bay floor to ceiling with Hungry Man dinners and vented atmosphere.

Decontamination Procedures 1. Undress to your strategic gray underwear, or wear your issued Sanitation Thong, lighting will be set to Blue Mood standard 2. Open the jar of Decontamination Jelly 3. Lovingly rub yourself and your crewmates all over 4. Specially tuned audio waves will interact with the Decontamination Jelly, for convenience it has been made to resemble soft-jazz 5. The Sterilization Rod will descend from the ceiling, use this opportunity to prevent muscle soreness from the Jelly by either stretching with the Sterilization Rod or mutual massage 6. Prevent nerve cluster inflammation by softly kissi-

Make the B plot about him cloning a new beagle with that desert larvae plot device thing. Archer wakes up "Porthos! You look younger! that Nebula must have done wonders for you!" *frozen dog bounces off of shuttlepod as they inspect the ship for damage*
