I was just chatting with another Doper in instant messages, and mentioning the Enterprise Season Finale, which he didn’t see. I was explaining how this “Expanse” place was described by Vulcans as a place where there were lots of hostile species and strange goings on.

He replied: “Sounds like a singles bar.”  
Monstre: “Vulcans at a singles bar? :::snicker:::”

Then suddenly we were coming up with Vulcan pick up lines… 😉

- “Pardon me, but do you frequent this establishment on a regularly scheduled basis?”

- “The Vulcan Science Directorate has determined that that position is not possible.”

- “You’ve seen the neck pinch. But let me show you my other Vulcan pinch!”

Of course, we don’t have to be restricted to Vulcans. So, what pickup lines would you hear Star Trek characters or species using in a singles bar?

We are Borg. Let’s get naked. Flirting is irrelevant.

If i said you had a beautiful flgmtreex would you hold it against me?

If you knew oomox like I know oomox

Do you know the Prime Directive? Then you know _my_ prime directive.

So… is everything blue?

I’ve got ten million little photon torpedos that want to penetrate your hull, baby.

Betazoid: I _know_ you want me.

_slap_ “I’m a doctor, not a pick-up artist, damn it!”

“Me balls! Thi’re goin’ all blue! Thiy kinna take any more, baby!”

“Wanna bump tribbles?”

“I calculate a 97.32% chance that our mating would produce a viable fetus with an admirable constitution and extraordinarily aesthetic physical attributes. In addition, the procreative acts necessary to the impregnation of your ova will take an unusually lengthy time and would produce most agreeable sensations.”

“My olfactory sensors have detected a recent increase in the production of vaginal mucous, concurrent with increased respiration and heart rate. I can surmise, therefore, that you are ‘_hot_’ for me. As I am currently investigating human sexuality, perhaps you can show me this thing called ‘around the world.’”

“Hey, captain. Is that a doomsday device in your pants, or are you just glad to see me?” _sets mammaries to ‘stun’_

“You know, this visor lets me see through clothes.”

“I need your pussyon field emissions to reverse the polarity of my subcock matrix deflector, baby!”
