Started Star Trek: The Next Generation for the first time last night. How big of an ongoing factor is "Q?" Because I kind of hate him. - eviltoast

I also had no idea the top portion of the Starship Enterprise could separate like that. That was pretty sweet.

      I don’t know why it’s hilarious to me that Picard pulls up his covers like he’s ashamed at Q seeing him in the nude, as though he isn’t a multidimensional demigod who probably can see through Picard’s clothes anyway if he so wished.

      It’s just such a cute and pointless attempt at privacy with a nearly all powerful being. Like dude he just magicked himself into your bed, you think he didn’t already get a good look?


      Patrick Stewart : So in my film, I play a man who controls the world with his mind.

      Andy Millman : Right. Oh, that’s interesting.

      Patrick Stewart : Yeah. For instance, I’m walking along, and I see this beautiful girl, and I think I’d like to see her naked, and so all her clothes fall off.

      Andy Millman : All her - clothes fall off?

      Patrick Stewart : Yes, and she’s scrabbling around to get them back on again, but even before she can get her knickers on, I’ve seen everything. Yeah. I’ve seen it all.

          I actually remembered it after I made the comment, and edited it in. Realized how Patrick Stewart at least already understands.

          But it’s also true that I’ll drop this reference any time I get a chance because it never fails to crack me up.
