Just because Chekov wasn’t on the bridge and we didn’t see him doesn’t mean that he wasn’t still part of the crew somewhere else on the ship. When we finally did see Chekov in Season 2, he at no point claimed to have just joined the crew.
I applied for cosmetology class when I was in high school. No one questioned it at all because not only was I a blatantly obvious nerd but I was also the only openly gay guy in the school. First day I’m told to meet in a room I didn’t even know existed. Fucking mirrors everywhere. Circular tables around the mirrors with decapitated heads for as far as the eye could see, all with horrific hairstyles and blank, expressionless faces. Went in. Sat down. Realized I was the only one in the room with a set of testicles and started to slowly piece together where I done majorly goofed.
Class was surprisingly good. I can french braid now. I did fail however because the teacher hated me. Not only was I gay, which she didn’t like, but I wasn’t a “stereotypical” gay guy which she somehow found more infuriating. A dude who didn’t come off as particularly effeminate but was comfortable enough doing peoples hair. 2 weeks before the final class she ‘lost’ my module and expected me to make up the entirety of the semesters work in 2 weeks. All worked out. She broke her ankle the next year after someone got berated so hard they pissed themselves. Janitor was on the way to clean it up, she wasn’t looking where she was going, and slipped in it and fell down a nearby set of stairs.
Same thing happened to me. I realized it was trek memes. Didn’t understand the relevance of Risa. Googled on memory alpha and found out. Had a good laugh at the joke as it were. Understood why there was no written out explanation of the naming. It’s part of the spirit and injokeness of the place.
The reason people are antagonistic is because it’s all coming across a bit entitled.
It’s just trek memes. Chill. You’re going to be ok man.
What is it about "Star trek memes and shitposts" you're incapable of understanding? Can you not google "star trek risa" to see where the name comes from? Why are you all up in here trying to play the victim like everyone's out to get you, when you're determined to live in the ignorance a 2 second google spree and reading comprehension could solve?
I solved this for myself by googling Risa. It wasn't difficult and I didn't have to complain to anyone, or declare that I was leaving and never coming back or whatever.
c/All browser here and not a subscriber of this community. But as a fan of Star Trek, I find this post pretty hilarious. Especially as Risa is part of at least four of the shows, at least one movie, several books, multiple games, RPG manuals, and more.
I imagine a hypothetical tatooine@starwars.website where the community posts nothing but pictures of sand with titles like “The beautiful view from my apartment” and someone dropping into that community to complain “what even is a tatooine!? all i can see is brown. why are you alienating non-starwars fans?”
Or football@sport.website “Why is everyone running after spheres? Who are all these people? Why don’t you explain what a football are in your sidebar? Why are you alienating people who don’t have feet spheres?”
Not everything on the internet is for you or required to cater to you. Rather than share negativity, simply try tapping on a different hyperlink instead and find something that is for you.
You’re alienating people. Again, that’s your right, but don’t you think “Community Information” should contain information about your community…?
For the record, I have enjoyed many posts from Star Trek communities, but it’s annoying that I don’t know what this one is about and absolutely nothing is provided…
And here’s me about two hours away from my copy of the Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual to debunk this obvious joke with a picture of all the architectural diagrams where it calls out places where one might find a head, including, IIRC, the Ready Room, of which I imagine Riker probably avails himself on the regular.
Allowing the rotational periods of the planet to continue and liquid dihydrogen monooxide to immobilize me. Allowing the rotational periods of the planet to continue and liquid dihydrogen monoxide traversing subterranean layers. Into the azure colored atmosphere once more, when the currency has been expended. A single moment in the years that consist of a lifespan and liquid dihydrogen monooxide traversing subterranean layers.
