TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name @lemmy.world ummthatguy @lemmy.world 2mo ago

[Meta] Welcome to TenForward, home of the TenForward, can I take your order?

You know how you go to your favorite bar, your local bartender isn't there.

You ask, "Where's Stamets?"

"Stamet's no longer works here. I'm ummthatguy."

And you're thinking "Hey who's this idiot? I like Stamets."

But you still want your drink. And even though ummthatguy doesn't mix your drink the same way you're used to, like Stamets, you still like the bar. You don't have to go to a different bar. And even ummthatguy might feel kinda bad because Stamets trained him. Stamets showed him how to work the cash register, where the tonic was on the soda gun, who tips, who doesn't.

Stamets is the SNL Weekend Update Norm Macdonald to my Colin Quinn.

Glad you're here!
- Thanks. Just following your guy's lead.
  
  Neat videos .... did someone remove the background on these videos?
I'd try act more surprised but I've noticed you've been running this bar for a while
- I was just a bar back, but now I gotta help restock the shelves, throw out the belligerents, empty the holosuite filters, etc.
And you're thinking "Hey who's this idiot? I like Stamets."

Yeah, we all like him - but you know what, we like you too:-).

And now to Trek this comment up a bit:
- Obligatory:
  
  Also an intriguing video mashup!
Uh, yeah whatever. A rootbeer and two hours on the Vulcan Love Slaves of Terrix IV.
- Uh, the suites are currently occupied. Vic's got a set going, then Chief O'Brien and his boytoy are "fighting" the Battle of the Bulge. The jokes practically write themselves.
  
  Friends like these, huh Morn?
- That's the creepy spirit!
- BTW .... happy to hear you taking the job ... just don't spill the drinks or set fire to the bar
I honestly already thought you were a mod here lol
- Nah, just a regular who kept sneaking behind the bar to make my own drinks. Guess they figured "Why fight it?" and had me start helping out.
  
  Like that tribble trader when that Klingon insulted the Enterprise. He started pushing buttons, worked out fiiine.
Via con dios, Stamets, and welcome ummthatguy!

I'll have something... green.
- Currently out of green. Try this.
- Vaya*
  
  Brunt: I am an F.C.A. agent!
Me, as a YouTube reactor: "Chat, this is just temporary... right?"

But, seriously, congrats. You'll be mostly fine.
- Appreciate the vote of confidence.
  
  affirmative grunt
- Me, as a YouTube reactor: “Chat, this is just temporary… right?”
This may not be the day you die, but when you do, stamets will wait for you in sto vo kor.

Glory to the house of ummthatguy!
Can i still call you Old Man? Do you carry the stamets symbiote
- I carry his spirit, if you will.
Okay but the thing is I'm delightful and I tip and I only ever seem to get snark ; _ ;

Live long and prosper, Stamets. We'll be here if you ever decide to come back.
We are lucky to have you!
- Glad to be of service.
  
  This image is in no way intentionally ominous, just where my head went.
  
  My Big Lebowski postthis morning was supposed to be a subtle welcome, but I don't think it was very clear
  
  _And look at that ‘orse _
Stamets is the SNL Weekend Update Norm Macdonald to my Colin Quinn.

Norm was the goat. But Colin was criminally under-appreciated.

Thanks for Guinan us through these days!
- When a friend asks for help... You help them! It's just...
  
  ... that it happened as the result of losing a fondly remembered founding member of our nice, quiet little beach community here.
  
  Is this your only form of I.D.?
Love you buddy. You'll do well <3
- ~~please don't your squad of hit-meese to kill me~~
  
  He don't need no squad - if he's got the right one!
- Glad you came about! Hope things are going better for ya.
  
  They're not, but I appreciate it. Just heard about the post and figured I'd stop by for a second <3
