/c/TenFoward: 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. 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.

Could someone wiser than me translate?
Panel 1: Reference to the TV show Letterkenny ("Let's get on with it")
Panel 2: Reference to old TV ads for Tombstone Pizza ("What do you want on your Tombstone" i.e. "Any last requests?")
Panel 3: Reference to Futurama episode: "Brannigan, Begin Again" ("Yes. Tell my wife how I feel about her.")
Panel 4: Reference to the movie, The Princess Bride ("Yes of course, I'll do that.")
Panel 5: Reference to the movie, Blade Runner ("Time to die...")
Panel 6: Meta reference, sticking with the referential nature of the dialog instead of actually rolling credits.
Thanks for the reference breakdown.
Very welcome! With my brain, it's about the only thing I'm good for 😬
Same wavelength, dude.
Who is that, ajdnwhy do they look like a mediaeval fantasy character sitting on a modern couch?
My response from another:
[Freja] from God of War, yes. In place of Liz Lemon in 30 Rock.
Edit: There's a wonderful treasure trove of meme based gifs from the game studio itself.
Holy shit these are incredible. Reminds me of the skit easter egg in the credits to Summoner.
Is that the same background though?
Assuming a facsimile using the game engine.
Love both! Thanks!
You got it.
You’re like some kind of sentient pop culture wiki.
Edit: Wasn't meant for me, just felt compelled.
You absolutely are a pop culture wizard though!
☺️
Excellent. What exactly is six fingers?
Princess Bride character.

Hail, Satan ^in ^the ^details
Gotta put a closing caret on your superscript words in Lemmy. And end a line with two spaces if you want the text to appear on the next line.

🤷🏽♂️
What app/UI you using? Some of the former Reddit apps that were converted to Lemmy haven't implemented markdown according to the Lemmy specification, especially regarding ^superscript^ ~subscript~
and
SpoilersOne of the six fingered man’s promises was a lie
Sure, but the one to Humperdinck was intended.
Didn't the message have something to do with Inigo Montoya, and something about his father?
