“This is my spot, buddy.”

Were they all afraid of her?

A barely recognized singer songwriter that was a wafer-thin smoker whose hair represented 30% of her body weight?

I’d be afraid I’d knock her over if I talked too loud.

I knew you wouldn’t let me down. Danka.

A Riker always mounts his seat.

This was no mere copy & paste classic server, Turtle was remastering the entire game and releasing their own expansions.

Post the code so the community can run with it. If one head is cut off, two more will take its place.

“Why do you think I wear white gloves? haha!”

Quick, gimme a German word for saving a social media post for later.

Humankind still hasn’t learned that there are consequences to treating intelligent creatures like idiots.

I mean, just look at that face. They’re still cross about it.

It’s a powerful and understated bit of acting how when Spock thought Kirk might have been in actual mortal danger he got visibly worried and broke protocol, calling him Jim over the comms. It’s a great display of his human side breaking through in a moment of high stress.

I don’t know how much of that was intentional, but I think this is the first instance of Spock calling Kirk Jim.

This episode has a lot of firsts. The first “I’m a doctor…”, the first distinction between the type 1 and type 2 hand phaser, the first and only episode of TOS to not open on a shot of the Enterprise.

…and the first and only TOS episode that has zero female lines. A fact that prompted Gene Roddenberry to write a letter to Gene Coon reminding him that if Star Trek is a future where women are completely equal and share the same responsibilities as men, then the show needs to reflect that.

While that doesn’t stop this from being one of the better episodes of Star Trek, I thought there should have been a few female miners while watching. But I didn’t realize that Uhura, Chapel, and any other female crew members were also absent from this episode.

No news is good news.

I’m pretty sure that’s Human Bill.

I have something to say about that dolphin painted to look like an orca.

The Mii honestly looks like Zuckerberg.

What food group is that fork suppose to belong to?

And then he turned into a Rickroll, funniest shit I’d ever seen.

The blueprints are what drew me in.
