Miles O'Brien
Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
I just drove to Michigan and back, saw maybe 5 vehicles, including a semi covered in lights.
One just had a single dollar store strand around the hood, one had followed all the panel lines on the car, and the others were just wrapped a couple times over the top and underside.
None were flashing or twinkling, just steady lights.
As long as they don’t flash or move while driving, honestly I don’t think a couple strands would be that distracting except maybe a double-take
I can see how this many lights would be distracting for some. I would definitely look more than twice, if I had space around me.
Still though I think I’d just ask them to leave most of the lights off while actually on the move at most.
Oh man, I missed bullpupping memes…
Same.
I listened to the original Broadway cast so many times I was concerned I wouldn’t like a “cover” of it. After my sister said she liked it, and listening to a song and not finding it objectionable, I had even considered watching it.
This is the first I’ve heard of it being a two parter, so they hid it well. I’m surprised my sister didn’t say anything
Not a chance in hell I’m watching it until part two comes out in physical media so I can watch them both in one go. I hate breaking up the flow, even for a few hours while I wait for the next screening…
if the characters behave too unnatural
My wife doesn’t get this.
I can’t stand watching some movies because every part of the movie is just one character doing something unnatural or outright insane that nobody would ever do, and the people around them react in similarly unnatural and insane ways.
And certain old movies (especially holiday oriented ones) that lean heavily into the “everyone here is a bumbling idiot” trope crank this up to 11.
If you enjoy said things, awesome. Good for you. Keep watching them, it literally does not affect me. I’m genuinely glad you have entertainment. I just won’t watch it with you.
Five) is a good one. Like “oh shit… I fucked this one up too much, I guess I’ll see how it turns out but I’m gonna start over with a new batch”
I’d love to see someone more creative with writing than me do some writing prompts with that premise. Maybe have someone from this universe ascend or something and actually confronts god as they’re spending time with their new family creation.
六> is also a good one, it reminds me of the idea that every single person is God. And when all of humanity has finally lived and died, god will become a single consciousness and join the rest of their kind. It kind of pairs poetically with Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot.
