WTF is a risa!? - eviltoast

Hello. It’s hugely annoying to look at “community information” and find just an in-joke that won’t make sense to most people, and no explanation of what this community is about. I’m sure that’s fine for those already initiated, but I still don’t know what “risa” means!

Don’t worry, I also know you don’t care that outsiders are kept out-of-the-loop and maybe even want to keep them out…? Well, that’s fine; it’s your community, but just a reminder that the casual browser will probably filter this community after several spammed posts that don’t even clarify where their interests lie…

EDIT: Don’t worry, I’m gone, and I’ve turned off reply notifications… I have even watched Star Trek! But don’t fret, your caustic and hostile replies have ensured you’re safe from the curiosity of myself and others, they won’t bother you any more! Enjoy your gatekeeping…

      That is not an answer.

      That is just more of the same gate keeping Bullshit.

      Would Picard be proud of you now?

        Picard would just google “risa” instead of complaining about the fact that a star trek community on an instance with the domain “STARTREK.website” is making star trek jokes you don’t understand

          Show me the episode where when someone asked for help he said, screw that, work it out for yourself.

            He helped when someone was legitimately struggling, but you aren’t legitimately struggling. You either just have a world record for laziness, since googling risa takes a grand total of 15 seconds, or more likely you just want to complain, since you spent the time to make a post and to continue to argue

        Would Picard be proud of you recycling the same comments over and over? We all know you’re OP’s alt lol

          Yes., he often got angry and gave a verbal dressing down to those who were acting like pricks.

          Maybe you should Go watch TNG. All of TNG as you don’t seem to have learned much from it.

            I don’t recall him snapping off at the slightest notion. Sure at the drumhead or other opportunities he stood by his own morals, but I don’t really recall him taking liberties just cause… certainly not because of a simple disagreement.

            Bro Picard didn’t get angry, that was kinda part of his whole deal

            Maybe you should rewatch TNG since you wern’t paying attention to most of the episodes apparently

            Maybe a better comparison is Picard vs Sisko. Picard gave infinite patience to Q, Sisko punched Q in the face.
