/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I think maybe Ribetius for a true swap? Sounds froggy. A little James Ribetius Kiroak singing it ain't easy being green, a mix of Kermit the frog voice and Shatner speech cadence.

James R.R Kirk It was his pen name for his fantasy series.

Ramalamadingdong.

But the real question is who put it there?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Likely the same culprit involved with the bomp.

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Somebody set up us the bomp.

Anyway, whoever it was, I'd like to shake their hand.

A eurotrip meme in this economy?

[–] czarcasm@kbin.earth 8 points 3 days ago

The Kirk's come from a long lineage of Pirates. Everyone's middle initial is 'R'. It's required.

I was thinking Richard, since he tended to think with his dick a lot, but yours works too!

Rebel.

His father was a king, so that would make him a prince, a rebel prince. (If you get this reference you get major points)

[–] wildncrazyguy138@fedia.io 5 points 3 days ago

Raclette.

Cheesy, I know.

[–] lath@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago

Raktajino. He loved it so much, he named himself after it.

[–] M137@lemmy.today 4 points 3 days ago

I thought it was canon that his parents were big Styx fans and his middle name is Roboto
