At the risk of devolving into ad hominem...

I feel that Nintendo hasn't made a good Mario game since.. 3D world on the 3DS/wiiU and before that.. Mario Galexy and then.. since Paper Mario on the original Wii. those games were in my opinion the best of what Mario has to offer as it was originally intended. Fun, colorful cartoony, and exciteing.

...how old were you when those games were released?

Does that make the fire caves the good place?

I tend to think of the term as meaning "obsessive to a fault" (versus simply being passionate about something).

Tell me you didn't read the article without telling me you didn't read the article

I know, right? It's 2023. They should really provide a QR code or something.

we saw Wesely grow dilithium as part of a high school science project

We also saw Wesley mention that the Klingons had joined the federation.

Things change.

Yes, we've had Windows 98. But what about second Windows 98?

Thank you for your creations! This one really tickled my brain the first time I saw it.

It's narrated by Morn.

There are some shows where actors just ad lib their lines, then there's Star Trek where you have to say exactly what's on the paper.

Sorry, neither!

The other thing is ... these are time paradoxes so whatever happens creates a new universe and we will never become aware of the alternate versions.

Are you thinking Marvel-style timeline-forking? I could be wrong, but I believe it is established that time doesn't work that way in Trek.

Interesting pre-XP rendition of Bliss

Let me see if I can explain it to you: Nerds don't have a problem with women; they have a problem with change. I'll give you an example: Nerds are upset at black stormtroopers in the new Star Wars movie. Do they have a problem with stormtroopers being black? No. They have a problem with you changing their definition of a stormtrooper. I'll be a little clearer: If the first time you introduce oatmeal to a nerd it has maple syrup in it, it better have maple syrup every fucking time, or it's not oatmeal.

And then when I asked advice from people in Hollywood—I knew a handful of people, not many in those days—and I said to them, "Look, I've been offered this, what should I do? I've got plays lined up in London, I'm finally beginning to get a reputation in the West End playing leading roles." And they told me now, this is a six-year contract, don't worry about it. You cannot revive an iconic show like Star Trek, it cannot happen, you will be lucky to make it halfway through the season before it's canceled.

Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

And there it is. The one thing on the Internet that made me laugh audibly today. Bravo 👏

I didn't think there was any Trek that could haunt my brain more than TNG 1x25 Conspiracy did when I was 5.

I was wrong.
