So when did you find out Star Trek was not real, and how did you find out?

1. Not real? Dude, some things are too serious to joke about.

Star Trek not real... :eyes:

[skygazer]

2. Look, just because the Prime Directive keeps them from disclosing who they are

when they slingshot the sun and travel back in time to (when else) the 20th century (except to whale biologists who conveniently have no friends or family who will miss them and whose absence does not screw up the time continuum - which is kind of a sad thing when you think about it)....


where was I?

Oh, yeah, so just because of the parameters which I have just divulged in my previous utterance...

Oh, never mind. :silly:

3. And nobody notices that the Monterey Bay Aquarium has been renamed

the Cetacean Institute, and Scotty can type a b'skillion words per minute with two fingers even though he doesn't know what a mouse is...

5. if the transparent aluminum didn't screw it up nothing would. nt.

[skygazer]

8. Hey, how do you know he's not the guy who invented it?

That line always killed me - Scotty would know. :rofl:

[Deja Q]

6. You lot talkin' about me again?

:rofl:

[El Fuego]

4. It IS real - a real franchise.

A bona fide money-making-gold-mine-never-going-to-even-end-in-our-lifetime-god-help-us franchise.

7. When Micky Dolenz once said in an article.....

"The Monkees were a TV show......we aren't hanging out in a beach house any more than William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy are running around in space suits saying "Beam me up, Scotty".

[Crabby Appleton]

9. What do you mean not real?

[Bryan]

10. Well, strictly speaking, STAR TREK takes place in Teh Future...

So we can't necessarily rule it out. I mean, I wouldn't want to go on record that Star Trek isn't real; what if World War III breaks out and the war-ravaged nations of the Earth are taken over by genetically-engineered supermen? I'd look awfully stupid.

11. When Obi Wan Kenobi came to visit me

[petronius]

12. It is real, it just hasn't happened yet. Do you not grasp the linear nature of time?

:shrug:

:)

[KoKo]

13. No! Don't destroy my BELIEFS...STAR TRECK WAS REAL!

It really was..if you have a view .....out to the future........ So don't trash it ...you IDIOT!

[azmouse]

14. Resistance is futile.

[Autumn]

15. And next I suppose you are going to say there is no

Santa Clause. What the hell is wrong with you people? You are all insane.

[flvegan]

16. First time I was exposed to Star Trek, I knew it could never be real.

Nothing in life sucks that much.

:hide:

[harmonicon]

17. just now

19. ...

18. David Gerrold ruined it all for me with his tell-all book

[Tabasco_Dave]

20. THE SPACE HIPPIES AREN'T REAL!!!!!

22. When that phaser kit I bought at K-Mart didn't work.
