I always thought this was a bullshit cop-out.
No you didn't, you lied.
Agreed. I'm guessing this is one of those 'myths' that Humanity has about Vulcans and the Vulcans just play completely into it to have an advantage. But the longer a human works with a Vulcan, the sooner they realize that it's utter bullshit and that most Vulcans are a bunch of lying emotional sluts
Emotional slut:
I mean it's largely Berman at play here, but still.
May his dick be infested with a thousand termites.
Old Vulcan proverb.
Ha! I get it, because termites eat wood! This is very logical. I enjoy this.
I can fix her
You can’t fix everything Trip.
O'Brien can fix her
Beaming her out into space is not a solution
Well, DS9 era Miles can fix everything, even a broken marriage. Not his broken marriage mind you.
His marriage is fine. It's his own trauma that he's running from. That's why he spends his days fixing everything else and his nights playing dress-up and dolls.
I beg to differ.
Listen.
Hot space elves don't get spaced. Not on my watch!
O'Brien bream @WarmSoda 500m off the upper pylon
I read that in Trip's voice.
Wasn't Spock originally supposed to be an android, but they changed him to space elf because of budget?
I could be making this up. I feel like that's something I read though.
That would explain the no lying thing.
I'm not sure about android but he was supposed to be Martian and have red skin. However there were a lot of complaints about 'devil' comparisons.
I was mixing things up, it was phase II that was supposed to have the Android.
IIRC, it was the Vulcan science officer in Star Trek: Phase II that they originally wanted to be an android.
That's exactly what it was! Thank you
We come to serve
I can't find anything to indicate that, but this novel has a wild plot involving android versions of seemingly half of Starfleet.

Vulcans = twinks in their early 20s?
I mean they're not even bound to tell the truth like the Aes Sedai, who anyway manage to deceive plenty. Plus even if Vulcans had some kind of instinct to only tell the truth, Spock is part human.
