Enterprise Similitude & Spoilers

Klingon humor:

A Ferenghi goes into a bar with a tribble on his head.
The bartender puts the batleth he was polishing under the bar and pours the Ferenghi a prune juice, no ice. He looks at the tribble and says, “Where did you get that disgusting thing?”
The tribble replies “I dunno, it started as a wart on my ass.”

(When did we all start spelling “Ferengi” with a -ghi, as though it’s some Italian dish?)

We don’t but 'plant always has for some reason.

I’ve seen it spelled Ferengii before though.

Well, sure it has two I’s. When was the last time you saw a Ferengii with a patch? :wink:

Good one, 'plant!

I thought Cervaise* was going to blow in here and piss all over the thread. Instead, it turned into one big pile of shit. Who’s responsible??!!
[blushes]Oops.

I was gonna see Gothika but it looked like it might be shit, so I saw Master and Commander again. Man, I love tall shits. I mean, Ships! Ships! Ships!

Shut up.

[SIZE=1]Oh, right…he hasn’t seen the ep. yet.

It is the proper transliteration of Ferenghi script.
Just as Tsar and Czar from the Cyrillic.
Damn I hope I spelted that right…

I was just reading about the Diet of Worms. No wonder those bishops were so cranky, having to eat worms and all…

How about the lesser of two weevils?
:smiley:

c’plant will know what I’m talking about.

As well hanged for a sheep as a bird in the hand.

_____ ‘Only this morning I was thinking how right they were to say it was better to be a dead horse than a live lion.’ He gazed out of the scuttle, obviously going over the words in his mind. ‘No. I mean better to flog a dead horse than a live lion.’
_____ ‘I quite agree.’
_____ ‘Yet even that’s not quite right, neither. I know there is a dead horse in it somewhere; but I am afraid I’m brought by the lee this time, though I rather pride myself on proverbs, bringing them in aptly, you know, and to the point.’
_____ ‘Never distress yourself, brother; there is no mistake, I am sure. It is a valuable saying, and one that admonishes us never to underestimate our enemy, for whereas flogging a dead horse is child’s play, doing the same to a lion is potentially dangerous, even though one may take a long spoon.’

See? At least my courtroom scene had something to do with the episode!

:dubious:

I kid beacause I love…
Next week, Crewman Daniels comes back and inform Quantum that USC loses to OU in the 2004 Sugar Bowl.

Quantum replies that that is no secret to revealed by the Future People™, it’s a college game from 200 yrs ago. Then, he lets Malcolm use him as target practice.

I wonder if we’ll see any Phlox reaction to Quantum telling him we lost Cutler on the away mission or something like that in a future episode?

Didn’t they lose Chef on an away mission already?

I just watched the clone show. As you folks said, it was quite good. Interestingly, I couldn’t watch it Weds, so my wife set up the VCR to record. (She takes care of those technical things around here) Anyway, she forgot that one shouldn’t leave the mute on the cable box. So I had an hour long tape with no sound. Know what? The show looks really really silly without dialog. I was about to skip the rerun (Enterprise comes on twice a week here, don’t know about other places) for the first time ever. Then I read about the show on this thread. So I had to give it a try. Glad I did. It was interesting how much the dialog contributed to the show. I tend to think of Star Trek as 90% spaceships and 10% short skirts (or the more modern pajamas scenes). But talking really does help. Interesting.

Allow me to welcome you to the boards, fellow Southerner.

Since I am here, where can I find a list of all the ships in the opening credits (I will pass on the raft)? And the astronauts? I assume they are Apollo 11, but I am not sure.

The raft should be the Kon Tiki

And who is the US astronaut atanding their smiling?

In a thread over the summer, the Dope pretty much IDed him as Shepherd. Since he was first American in space and was on a later moon mission.

Search is a little wonko right now, but the thread tittle had Snoopy hat in it.

:eek:

Standing…there… !

Are you doing this on purpose or are you coming off of a Tylenol PM hangover? (I only ask because I know the feeling and the effects.)

He’s standing. They’re smiling.
