This is why you outfit your worldship with an espresso machine (plus hydroponically-grown coffee plants).
I disagree on the first one. You could probably teach Data to make a mean espresso without too much difficulty.
And two beautiful children named Nathaniel and Superfly.
I think this is the general convention-goer's experience, whether it's Bronycon or some other convention.
It's a future where no one ever RSVPs, and when they do, it's always with a "maybe."
I fail to see how middle-aged German men are anything less than dope.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's without emotional intimacy, but it isn't the romantic intimacy that one typically associates with "twue wuv."
I think you've hit on something, though I would argue that listening to one's fans is different from acquiescing to their demands.
It occurs to me that Sisko's ending and foretold return is basically the Seattle "We should hang out some time." THE WORMHOLE LEADS TO SEATTLE!

It was a dark time in my life.
But really, are we that surprised? Silicon Valley has long been a haven of libertarian politics for some time. Look at a guy like Larry Ellison and tell me that that mofo doesn't see himself as the protagonist of an Ayn Rand novel. Go to any hacker convention, and you can't swing a dead baby without braining a Ron…
Massive City are infamous for being generally shitty, though. They generally have a bone to pick any time a new team comes into the league, and want everybody to respect them, even though this year is the first time in five years they have been relevant. Hell, they almost blew up the American Outlaws over a scuffle…
