You are an odd fellow, but I must say... you throw a swell shindig.

Commander Riker walked down the corridor completely nude. He turned to Picard and pointed to his rear end. Then Picard said "Really?" And then Riker said "really?" He was passed by several crew members. Everyone looked at Riker and then walked to the side.

Picard suggested that they go back to the bridge. Riker said they were already late and insisted on staying. He said "This was a medical emergency" and he ran to the bridge to find out what was going on. He was dressed in a rubber armor. He knocked over a cup of coffee and spilled it on the ground. Then

Commander Riker zipped up his pants. "You have nothing to worry about."


Lieutenant Commander Data smirked. "I would hope that's what Lieutenant Commander Crusher would tell you."

Yeah in the episode where Kes tries to have a baby. They can only have one baby ever, and only during one period of time in their lives, so if she misses it then that’s it


Goddamn

Wait wait, does it explicitly say they produce only one child? I remember them saying that they only have one window of opportunity to become pregnant., but not that it was a 2:1 deal.
I had assumed they produced several small spawn.

I'm pretty sure there's an episode where Kes runs into some Ocampans that are like 30 years old and they tell her that all the stuff she heard about them only living til 9 and having one kid is bullshit.

It’s pretty obvious they were expecting Kes to stay on Voyager for the full 7 year run, and have her die of old age in the tearjerker finale as they made it home.

But as with all things Voyager: lol

Was there some other prominent actor at the time called like, Barry Bim, or something?

I'm trying to figure out if it was another Elvis Grbac situation
https://deadspin.com/the-sad-hilarious-tale-of-elvis-grbac-1998s-sexiest-5302475

quote:

Best as Wulff can remember, all the People staffers and correspondents were on a conference call when someone, somewhere blurted out, “The Kansas City quarterback is really hot.” It was eventually decided that, yes, the Kansas City quarterback would be that year’s Sexiest Athlete Alive.

“Somehow,” she said, laughing more now, “the photos came back and the interview came back,” (even more laughter), “and we were like, ‘What the hell? This is not …'” (a cascade of laughs).

According to Wulff, the photo editors called in the staff to look at the pictures that would run in the magazine, and it didn’t take long for everyone in the room to realize that something had gone wrong. “One of the editors said, ‘This is the guy?’ Then we were looking it up and figured out that it was the other quarterback.”

As in Gannon, Grbac’s backup.

“And then it was too late,” Wulff said. “They felt so bad. We couldn’t cancel it at that point. It would be so mean.”

The magazine barreled forward. The writer quoted a teammate of Grbac’s who said, “He’s just a regular guy”; Grbac’s college coach at Michigan, who said, “I never pictured Elvis as a ladies’ man”; and his wife Lori, who had the last line: “His personality makes him sexy.”

Those ocampans were with the caretaker's ex-wife, and she obviously took much better care of her pets. They probably lived that much longer simply because she didn't feed them walmart kibble

Just so we're clear, Worf is a web and a nerd, but he's also a good nerd. He's a nerd to always stands up for principles and tries to do the right thing. And he's extremely competent which is more than we can say for any chud militia.

Worf might not be antifa grade but he sure as poo poo wouldn't be down with racist chuds either

Using only what information I've gleaned from this thread, I take it Discovery Season 3 is set in the far future where there is no Federation anymore so the writers can't gently caress up Federation lore?

They're in the year 3100 or so and the Federation largely collapsed after a plot device happened and every ship in the galaxy blew up simultaneously.
