Did Somebody Say "Star Trek"?

ST:Discovery gave us the Platonic ideal of Klingon.

Come at me.

Oh Jesus. I might belong in this thread…

I watched a lot of Star Trek as a kid. I remember some time ago I mentioned that I mostly learned English from watching Star Trek every day, with my parents. Someone said they could tell that “by the way I phrase things.” I asked them to elaborate. They did not. I’m still not sure what they meant.

Anyone else been particularly enjoying this season of Lower Decks? Right off the bat they had me tickled with the quantum singularity…

…where the parallel universe is only slightly different than the “prime” one. It’s easy to play with “what if” in those settings where you turn everything on it’s head, but much funnier having to dance around thing being just barely askew.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll take an Intendant Kira Nerys and roguish Ben Sisko any day of the week. But having a mirror universe where the outfits are exactly the same but with +2% saturation had me cackling. And Boimler doing the Riker Maneuver was a great gag.
