I'm going to argue that Quark is the only consistently annoying character in the whole show unless you hate bad acting, in which case Bashir and Jadzia are there too.

The CEO at my old place sounded (and acted) just like the Grand Nagnis.

It was so hard taking him seriously.

In a way, I would probably take him even more seriously and shop my mom around to him.

Nog doesn't get enough love. The dude understands supply chains, which gives him a strong command of an important element of engineering logistics that most technically orientated engineers lack.

Have Nog run operations, he'll clean up O'Brien's poo poo no problem.

O'Brien is too goddamn busy fixing replicators.

Do you know how a chief engineer should fix a replicator?

"Junior Engineer, fix that replicator!" TADA!!!

Beyonce is an incredible businesswoman who turned marketing hype into a juggernaut that masks the flaws of her music! Truly brilliant maneuver, and though I feel that Beck's album was similarly treated with kid gloves due to his incredible legacy, it was an understandable victor through the methods the people at the GRAMMYs use to decide!

I strongly encourage anyone invested in the debate to consider listening to albums not nominated for awards, I personally feel that albums such as Future's Honest and St. Vincent's self titled offering were true standouts.

I can confirm that this is accurate.

Additionally the characters of DS9 ranked:

Garak > Jadzia > Kira > Sisko > Quark > O'Brien > Worf > Bashir > Jake > Ezri > That Time Picard Was There > Evil Riker > That One Romulan Who Says "IT'S A FAAAAKE" > Nog >>>>>>> that evil cardassian I forget his name >>>>>>>>>> the papess lady forget her name too that final season was AWFUL for them.

Dukat that was his name.

I would put early-seasons Dukat in the top half, definitely. late seasons Dukat goes right where I put him.
