I’m a sometime Trek watcher, and I had a question about this new season. So instead of actually looking it up, (I’m lazy) I decided to prostrate myself before this august group. My question is this: How does one pronounce “Xindi” Is it like “Cindy”? That doesn’t sound very scary…

It’s like Zindi.

I think we all know that T’Pol gets a new look, but I certainly did not expect this -

Trip has one of those, but I didn’t notice T’Pol with one, athelas.

Oh, Xindi

Well you came

And you rayed without warning

And I blew you away

Oh Xindi

I always thought it was:

I want Xindi…  
(duh duh duh, du-du)  
I want Xindi…  
(duh duh duh, du-du)

Or even:

Hey, Xindi, you’re so fine. You’re so fine your blow up Earth, hey Xindi! Hey Xindi!

What is a Xindi if he can’t scratch?

What is a Quantum if he can’t rap?

What is a Chef without the live clap?

T’Pol can do it all, baby, just like that!

I thought it was a song from “Grease (Trek)”

Of course, this might have been a lie, so how can we trust you? 😃

I will be out Thursday and Friday.  
Do you reckon some of the Xindi are graphics?

The season started already? Damn, that means I missed my chance to be all snobbish about seeing it before you. Oh well, T’pol’s breasts you say?

Is it fingernails?

Aha! I found Xindi at 6:00 today. I’m back in the game baby. Although, typically the game only needs you to know about what happened in Enterprise threads and almost never what happened in the episode themselves.

Considering that alien morphology would probably allow for anything and that Jolene Blalock obviously loves her some invasive surgical procedures, it could be anything.

I guess we can give up on serious discussion of the episodes this season, too.
