They had no idea what they wanted to do with Ferengi in this episode. By the end, they are downright feral. Wearing furs and jumping around screaming like cavemen. After watching them in later episodes, this one just feels really weird to see.
It would be off the charts in Chinese media too if they had things like free press and didn’t arrest their people for posting things critical of the Chinese government.
If it did, it could only have been a positive effect. From a logistics standpoint, what happened that day is nothing short of astounding. Less than 3 hours after making the decision, the ENTIRE US airspace was cleared of all commercial traffic. 4500 planes were re-routed and grounded at a time of extreme uncertainty. It may have been his first day, but the guy did his job flawlessly.
Proto-chicken laid the egg. It was a proto-chicken egg. The creature that came out of it had enough genetic variance to be defined as a full chicken.
Note, the question does not ask “what came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?” It’s just “the egg”. It doesn’t matter what type of egg, as long as a chicken came out of it.
“What a fun show, I can’t wait to see how the creator develo-”
Rabid Fans: “WE BELIEVE ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE GAY AND KISS EACH OTHER AND WE HATE THE CREATOR FOR NOT GOING ALONG WITH OUR HEAD CANON! ALSO, HERES 10000 PIECES OF FAN ART OF ALL THE CHARACTERS FUCKING!”
So what’s the deal with Keiko? Was she intentionally written to be an awful wife? She frequently holds double standards, is lukewarm to O’Brian at the best of times, and constantly acts like she’s just in a marriage of convenience. I honestly can’t recall a single time she ever showed genuine affection for O’Brian. It’s like she expected him to die long ago to get Starfleet’s widow benefits, and every day he’s still alive she resents him for it.
what would you have done differently with the DCEU
Started it from the Nolan Batman movies instead of rebooting it again. The DCEU could have been the darker, grittier answer to Marvel’s movies. Instead we got a lot of formulaic movies that all look like a low budget CW show.
Ironically, this would be a terrible place to try and hide. Since it’s the furthest point from land, it tends to get visited by private ships pretty often, just so the people on board can say they’ve been to it.
No God damn way is it an intentional body mod. If it were, the pinky would not be the digit chosen.
Grip strength.
If you lose your pinky, you lose almost half your fucking grip strength. And as something like grip strength is pretty fucking important for a hunter-gatherer society, I’d be shocked if they were just lobbing off pinkies for the hell of it.
