You folks are amazing.

Y'all keep doing your thing. They brighten my day.

Whatever helps drive engagement to Lemmy.
ENGAGEMENT. GET IT? ENGAGE.
FUCKING. LAUGH.

This is what got me to start watching Trek and so glad I did
- Oh I started last Jan (off risa) and have seen everything multiple times at this point. Went to a local fan meet-up earlier this month!
- It's a lifetime obsession.

Be careful though, this can lead to bad, bad places...
- I hate the "Shut Up Wesley" trope, so this is very wholesome!!
  
  I'm not sure why those are so funny. Maybe bc they are so "over the top" as to not register as being real? Like Frank Burns in MASH - if an irl person was that way it would horrifying, but as a "bit" it's funny?

It's true, and I love it.

i don't usually understand them, but i'm glad people are having fun

Grew up watching TNG and Voyager but haven't really watched since. Subbed here thinking I'd get a funny every now and then. Half my feed is now Star Trek memes. No regrets.
- You really should at least watch DS9 too
  
  I've heard really good things about DS9 its actually on my media server rn I just haven't got to it yet. Guess this is the push I need, haha.

Alt: clip from the Terminator movies of the military guy saying "Skynet's fully operational. Processing at 60 teraflops a second."
- 60 teraflops is still pretty fast. But I can only assume 60teraflops/s is an acceleration of operational speed which would be crazy impressive.
  
  I agree. BUT, if you allow "teraflop" as a noun, then adding an s makes it plural, and it can still be accurate to say 60 teraflops a second to mean simply (the original definition of) 60 teraflops.
- the military guy
  
  That's Lorian, son of T'Pol and Trip!
  
  But is he really? He was from a future that was erased by the actions of the NX-01.
  
  I heard he was very lazy growing up.
  They called him Sloth Lorian.

ya like jazz, Timmy?

I've only ever watched The Original Series but I enjoy the memes regardless. Also I am not a boomer just had public access to a retro channel while in foster care which resulted in Star Trek, Svengoolie, and Naruto being a highlight.
Edit: Fucken TWO that's what you chose autocorrect?!

One of my friends thinks I'm obsessed with Star Trek because of the memes i send her.
She'll even send me one every once in a while!
- My wife thinks I'm obsessed too.
  She's right, of course.
  But she doesn't have to remind me of it...
  Joke's on her, I turned her into a nerd. She bought the silmarillion.
  
  She crossed thru the door. I'm impressed.

I think Lemmy would have more Star Trek content if Ten Forward hadn't killed startrek.website

Sorry not sorry 🖖
- Sounds like something someone else would say…

I’ve always liked this meme format, but this one in particular is great!

The meme is meh, but that photo is hilarious.
- one might even say it is a meh meh meme.
- Tubazooka ftw
