I just wanted to add how I enjoy this community and all the witty banter. Thanks for boldly going where no meme or gif has gone before.
We have a continuing mission. None of that 5 year jazz. We also have jazz.
You know I hate to keep saying this bit it’s absolutely true, I would rather trust the ferrangi than American capitalists.
The ferrangi have a book of rules detailing the ways that they are allowed to rip you off, you can be well-versed in them and by doing so actually get a good deal from a ferangi.
A human capitalist is just going to take their ball and go home with the slightest push, and help yourself to whatever they can take from you, ethics be damned.
One of my favourite lines in all of DS9 is when Rom and Quark are arguing about where they’ve crash landed.
Quark says something like, “maybe we’ve died and gone to [ferengi heaven]”.
Rom then says “or maybe we’ve gone to [Ferengi Hell]?”
Quark responds (and Armin absolutely crushed this line IMO): “The bar was turning a profit!”
