6. Thank you a hundred times for saying so. So many get their
entire life, etc., from it. Culture? I don't know if that is the proper term for it. Garbage, sewage, yeah, junk, yes, useless mash, yes, etc., back to you data.

10. Only if they got the gams.
Because a Starfleet with unisex uniforms isn't the kind of change I would ever vote for. Maybe in the 24th Century, but no way will Starfleet be ready in the 23rd century for uniforms that don't sexually exploit half their officers.

11. Didnt you see Encounter at Farpoint?
The mini skirt uniform IS unisex in 24th century! Sometimes Yar would wear the mini skirt and Troi wore the mini skirt on the first day. But if you look in the scenes when they are evacuating the people to the saucer section you see a guy coming around the hall in one of the mini skirt uniforms. I always wondered what was up with that guy.

15. Hey, when's the last time someone got run over by a TV show?
Or robbed by one, or carjacked, or had a toilet seat fall out of the sky and kill them? (oh, wait...)

It's sitting in my living room right now, turned off and unwatched, but I know it exists.

17. If you found out Ward Cleaver had affairs, how would it affect your life?

:rofl:

Seriously, sometimes TV and ads make me want to run off to some uninhabited place, wherever that might be.
