One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

I've said this before but as much as star trek crews get thrown around it's insane that they use touchscreens and have zero safety restraints.

*pushes up glasses* ahem in a deleted scene in Nemesis Captain Picard receives a new captain's chair with built in seatbelt.

If your religious leader is colder than a night on Rura Penthe - you might be a Bajoran.

Before I mastered the thirteen realms of comedy I performed routine engine maintenance throughout this sector. The first Bajoran ship I saw had exceptionally corroded aft manifolds. The second shop also had exceptionally corroded aft manifolds. The third one was the same. It was very irritating. Thankfully, the fifth Bajoran ship arrived when I was approaching my Pon Farr, so that was no problem.

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

"Mr. Spouk, I heard that your betrothed left you because you compared her to a Bajoran."
 "That is inaccurate. She left me because I addressed her with a term that was pejorative."
"Ah, I see. What was it that you called her which offended her so?"
 "A Bajoran."

Your logic in attempting to cancel Mr. Spouk is flawed.



I like how weirdly Picard and Dukat pronounce Bajor and derivatives. Obviously for Picard it's because they just got introduced, but I like to imagine Picard is convinced he's pronouncing it right while Ro is like "ugh, should I tell him? It's really been too long now for me to tell him without it becoming a whole thing..."

For Dukat, it's even better. I imagine he pronounces it Bay-zjor while every Bajoran pronounces it with a hard J, and Dukat firmly believed only he is saying it correctly.

I'd like to this that this was what that fatal confrontation between Confederation Picard and Dukat was like. Before Picard caps Dukat he's just like "SAY. BAJOR. DAMMIT!" :blastu:

Then there's the early "Bajora" variant (which is not terribly dissimilar to calling people "Vulcanian" early in TOS).

I watched Nemesis for the first time the other night and tbh I didn’t hate it. It’s not good, but none of the TNG movies are except for First Contact. It certainly wasn’t worse than Generations or Insurrection.
