yo I saw some buskers today and it turns out you can definitely play the gently caress out of some tunes for a good while with a bass and a pile of literally pots and pans and buckets.

It's a little early for Prohibition, but I thought he was saying "Not a thing" with a wink like he's actually got booze in there, and the cop will come back later to drink some.

I don't understand this. It's Kirk and Spock, but they're paging Worf? Is Data (the robot) part of the joke? Why would Kirk be sharing his internet with Klingons? What Klingons? Worf? Why is Spock so angry?

I've heard it in store Christmas music rotations once or twice, but that's it. Probably a good thing since it's sung by a kid.

Good work Intelligent Life on managing to google Klingon phrases, but "today is a good day to die" is something a Klingon says when they are expecting to die honourably, not a threat given out when insulted.
