The Difference Between Star Trek and the Best Science Fiction Show Ever on TV










Star Trek
:

Picard: "Arm photon torpedoes!"
Riker: "Captain! Are you sure that's wise?"
Troi: "Captain! I'm picking up conflicting feelings about this! And, it appears that you're a 'fraidy cat."
Wesley: "Captain, I'm just an annoying punk, but I thought I should say something."
Worf: "Captain, can I push the button? This is giving me a big Klingon warrior chubby."
Giordi: "Captain, I think we should reverse the polarity on them first."
Picard: "I'm so confused. I'm going to go to my stateroom and look pensive."

Firefly:

Captain: "Let's shoot them."
Crewman: "Are you sure that's wise?"
Captain: "Do you know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I'll BEAT YOU WITH until you realize who's in command."
Crewman: "Aye Aye, sir!"

blasphemy.

I've said it before - when faced with the eternal question, "Star Wars or Star Trek?", the correct answer is "Firefly."

Well said Reverend!

...and Clay, if prefering Firefly over Star Trek makes me blasphemous, then, in this case, I am proud to be sacrilegious. You can't stop the signal Clay!

Claytonian said...

what signal? Your show was cancel :D

Modig said...

*Must…resist…desire…to point out…the narcissist's…spelling…error.*

Yeah, I guess I failed.

Clay,

In case you haven't noticed, so was Star Trek.

Brendon,

If Clay wants to indentify with a skinny philosopher in spandex instead of a sturdy soldier in real clothes, he has that right...

Clays original post...

"Brendon, insults and off-hand character analysises of people you don't even know are great way to make friends. Keep it up and I'm sure you will be real popular.

Linus, so glad you acknowledged my presence, but TNG is not Enterprise by far. And you two seem to be taking this debate seriously, which worries me."

Modig said...

Clay,

The fact that you believe either of us are being serious about anything in the context of this debate worries me.

Claytonian said...

Brandon, you could do with showing a little class. causually throwing out insults is a really immature way to debate (I didn't even comment to get into a nerd-debate), as is playing copy cat. But don't worry, I don't like to feed trolls, so I'm done here, and your blog can get back to being about really important things that matter.

Linus said...

You have a real way with people, Clay...

Clay,

Your toolness is showing, check on that…

It’s Brendon, by the way, not Brandon.
