I worked hard at imitating the Leonard Nimoy Spock’s raised eyebrow for quite a while. I don’t regret the time spent practicing that in front of a mirror. I never mastered a fully raised eyebrow, but I can do a slight eyebrow raise.
Whenever someone is being greedy or acting a fool, I say, “hoo-man,” in a bad Ferengi accent.
Jean-Luc Picard’s “make it so” is a go to phrase for me.
My first sip of coffee for the day is always my Janeway moment.
When someone says something far fetched, I say “really.” I think I’m channeling Benjamin Sisko. No one else sees it that way.
I say “p’takh” a bit too often. Not to anyone who understands Klingon. Not yet, anyway.
Any Star Trek mannerism or phrase you’ve incorporated into your life?
“c’est la vie”
Kirk says it in Star Trek III.
Sorry about your crew, but as we say on Earth, c’est la vie.
