My wife likes TNG and Lower Decks, I’m still easing her in to DS9 and Voy.
The other day I showed her a picture of Picard wearing a yellow uniform, and she said “he’s wearing the wrong uniform. He’s command, not engineering.” before I could even ask her what was wrong with the Pic.
I immediately yelled “YOU’RE FINALLY A NERD!” And shot a text to the family text group and our friend group to share the good news, everyone had a good chuckle, and she just goes “YOU MADE ME THIS WAY! Not that I’m complaining…”
I have successfully made a convert. And yesterday she actually asked to watch more Voy before she even got home from work.
Well, at some point Starfleet swapped colors. See Kirk and Scotty from TOS.
I like how most Star Trek characters are clueless about the past, but the Lower Decks characters have encyclopedic knowledge about the most minute details.
After watching the bit in We’ll Always Have Tom Paris, I can’t read Voy without hearing it in Mariner’s voice
Ransom calls them “Those Old Scientists” and it catches on.
Honestly when I heard that line I cracked up, but my wife was lost since she hasn’t seen it.
when she corrects you and says the uniform is “gold” and the division is “operations,” you’ll know she’s a super nerd!
To be fair, She mostly knows “engineering” because of Geordi and Rutherford.
He also wears blue during the episode where Q makes him not a captain when he prevents his younger self from getting in the bar fight with the Naussicans
Dude gets a heart transplant after a bar fight with naussican pirates, And people still think he’s an uptight nerdy philosophy major…
That is what he becomes…until the movies, when Stewart wanted him to be an action hero.
Ahem… archeology major.
Was Indiana Jones uptight and stuffy? Yeah, kinda…
YOU! I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU!

This is the best one of these I’ve seen. Maybe just because T2JD is a fantastic film
T-800, his thumb held high
I don’t have the faintest about what that means, but I feel this is a really good meme format!
I the Star Trek The Next Generation episode “Darmok and Jalad” we encounter the Tamarians, and they speak in metaphors.
This is one metaphor that appears a couple times in the episode.
Misunderstanding a cultural reference that refers to a culture that speaks only in cultural references that cause misunderstandings is delightful either way.
His eyes are open!
