Cagi,

Don’t cheap out. Buy a good one or you’ll end up spending more constantly repairing the cheap one.

Nor are you the head of state of the provisional government of Bajor and former resistance cell leader. Shakaar, when the walls fell.

Cagi,

The cool thing about star trek is I can pretend I knew that and am speaking from the perspective of Discovery in the 29th century or something and still be technically correct, the best kind of correct.

Any single word in quotation marks. Reread sentences with any single word in quotes as if some conservative know-it-all is rolling their eyes and scoffing at these quoted terms. Putting them in quotes quarantines them from having to be taken seriously and is setting them up for criticism. If they didn’t use quotes for terms they didn’t like, they might be accused of being complicit in the “woke mind virus” that has stupid people so terrified.

The socialist utopia that is Earth is a dystopic story for them. It’s like one of us reading Brave New World.

Cagi,

It’s the rules of the gameshow Jeopardy. The gimmick is the game will give you an answer, you have to guess the question, so all responses must be in the form of a question to count.

So for the prompt:

“This Actor portrayed the captain of the Enterprise in all but the pilot episode of the original Star Trek series.”

You would answer:

“Who is William Shatner?”

Cagi,

Because there were a whole bunch of trivia gameshows out there at the time, this one had to set itself apart somehow. So it’s trivia, but in reverse, which was novel for the time. The format and content were a hit formula, enjoyed by the well educated and the uneducated alike. We forget the weird gimmick because it has been a nightly fixture in homes for several generations. It’s just good, high paced trivia with little filler and, for almost the whole series, a beloved host.

This is the greatest videogame video essay ever. 6 hours long for a 25 year old game we’ll never play.
