Henchman of Santa posted:On Friday Night Lights like half the residents of Dillon are pedophiles, probably because the local teenagers are all played by hot 26-year-olds. The worst plot related to this is when Tim dates the 30-year-old single mom next door, who is at least aware that she's committing a crime and tries to keep it secret. Then she leaves him for his adult brother. Nothing weird about that! Saracen deserved better.

Data is also an android who, if he decides to, punch a hole to the ship's hull and take a direct hit from a phaser without giving a gently caress, also take control of the ship at any point if he chooses to do so. He also knows everything about humans and being a human, but simply wants to experience the full spectrum and learn emotions by nature. This is also why he was the more successful one because unlike Lore, he wasn't given the emotion chip so that he would not become a supervillain the moment he understands his superiority against everything biological. And yes, Data fucks. He knows several moves. Maybe not as many as Riker or Kirk but still.

There was also that episode where a woman on the ship was so frustrated by a series of selfish and careless lovers that she thought that a passionless robot who just did whatever she asked for was a huge step up.

That Italian Guy posted:Self quoting from a few posts above If anything Born Sexy Yesterday and Actually a 1000 Year Old Demon are basically opposites of each other. One is a character with an adult body and the mind of a child, the other is a character with the body of a child and the mind of a 1000 Year etc. The latter doesn't really have the same power imbalance thing, or if it does it's in the opposite direction. Both still super creepy, though.

It’s established that Data has already been through starfleet academy and has already existed like 25 years when TNG happens and he’s still asking things like “what’s a joke” and “why do people get sad” are we supposed to believe that at no point during any of that time he didn’t either have these concepts explained or studied about them or learned anything

She's technically not a child, so it's legal!" All excuses to draw Loli porn are lovely. Don't draw Loli porn.

I just assume he finds it funny to constantly ask the same questions of people. But then I've only seen like 2 episodes of TNG all the way through and they were terrible so idk.

Inspector Gesicht posted:One day I will write the worst book ever written. It's about a writer struggling with writer's block, who is also a college professor who is contemplating adultery with a female student half his age. There's also a parallel story about post-war Vienna for some reason. We should team up after I finish writing the scripts I'm working on, one is about an angel observing an old man wistful for his lost youth and his grandson desperate to grow up. They share a birthday so when they both make their wish at the same time nothing happens because wishes aren't real and neither are angels .

Data believes he can't use contractions, so he doesn't. Just like how he denies his own emotions despite clearly experiencing them.

All those country music songs about pretty girls are talking about teenagers.

He wants multiple data points. (I know it's just because of serialisation, but I guess a good chunk of psychology is about answering the question "why we get sad" so it's a good question for an android to keep asking).

Data's time at Star Fleet Academy was spent switched off in a cupboard. Then on exam day someone popped in an SD card containing 'star_fleet_rules.txt'.

The episode in season 2 where a Starfleet scientist wants to study Data and claim that he's legally Starfleet property rather than a sentient being was really weird. Ok, there's maybe an argument to be had regarding Data's status, but shouldn't that have been had before he spent several years as a Starfleet officer? And then the episode where Data builds a daughter and she malfunctions and dies when the same scientist tries to claim her seems like it would have been covered by the same legal precedent, ie "We argued this in court already and you lost, dickhead." I think they should have discovered Data in the pilot episode, had him serving in the same sort of trainee crew member role Wesley Crusher was in most of the time, THEN have the episode debating Data's status.

Friend, do you think that a person living their life as normal for years and then having questions raised about their legal status is unrealistic?

Fish of hemp posted:World needs more campiness and silliness. I agree entirely. I will also add to this the point that, to my way of thinking, "Grimdark"(tm) is sillier and camper that actual "camp". Insomuch as it is overly performative and pantomime and dramatic. And those that take it seriously are hilarious and great to make fun of.

I’m enough of a nerd to wonder if somebody has done Data taking the Kobayashi Mary test, though I suspect he’d either be a boring “can’t save them, staying outside the Neutral Zone” type or he’d do some sort of super fast calculating android thing that crashed the sim computers.

It's canon in The Next Generation that they reenact it every time on a set with staff playing the parts of the crew, as seen in that episode where Wesley makes friends with the blue guy who needs to breathe from a tiny smoke machine.
