Seer of the tapes! Knower of the episodes!

    Should we ban porn?

  • "Expressed greater intent to commit rape"

    I would really like to know how they measured this. I get the feeling that the men being studied didn't come out and state, "yes, I have a greater intent to rape" on a survey or something. The researchers must have been using something as a proxy for "intent to rape".

    I'd also like to see the stats for how many of the men have actually raped someone. For example, if 86% are rated as "more likely to rape" after watching porn, but 99.9% don't rape anyone, then that would suggest there is no correlation between porn and rape.

  • Merde

  • Each decade of age took me half as long as the previous one did.

    0-10 took forever

    10-20 took 20 years

    20-30 took 10 years

    30-40 took 5 years

    And I fear it only gets worse.

  • Let us, like Him, hold up one shoe and let the other be upon our foot, for this is His sign, that all who follow Him shall do likewise.

  • Here's a rainbow that is close enough for the trees across the street to appear behind it.

  • When Tuvok is blinded in Voyager's Year of Hell, he explicitly activates the tactile interface for his console. So it's definitely something that LCARS supports.

  • The alternate future in DS9's The Visitor implies through dialog that they have 3-D controls on newer starships.

  • Reminds me of the old trick on HTML forms where you use CSS to make one of the form fields invisible to humans and reject any submission that filled in that field.

  • first initial middle initial and last name

    I do this when it's a work-related document. Anything personal I write out my first name fully. So good luck forging my signature on possibly the wrong kind of document, people who want to forge my signature but only have one example to work from!

  • Don't give up a stronger position for a weaker one in hopes of avoiding a conflict. You've only undermined yourself when the conflict happens anyway.

    I'm an apartment building superintendent. I once confronted a late night trespasser: a junkie looking for a place to shoot up or snort or whatever his thing was. I demanded that he leave, but realized that I was physically blocking the only exit. He was cornered. So I moved out of the way and suddenly I was the one who was cornered. It all worked out in the end, but for a minute there I was facing a large, angry, paranoid junkie with a knife and no way to escape.

    I don't know what would have happened if I didn't move to give him an exit, but I know that in doing so I gave up my own exit, and that was dumb.

  • I've had customers like this. Usually they just write their name in block letters. There's no rule that says a signature has to be written in cursive so it still works.

  • Don't you mean RDSM?

  • My champion:

  • Bride of Chaotica is my all time favorite Voyager episode. The cast all seem to be having so much fun with it, especially Rayner/Chaotica himself. The scene where Lunzak shoots Janeway and it just bounces off (cuz holodeck safeties) and she ad libs "ha, you're no match for Arachnia!" is just so perfect. Satan's Robot is hilarious. And I love how they merge the Chaotica-style music and Star Trek theme for the end-of-episode musical sting.
