I’m with you on this completely, it seems Zack just wanted to see Picard potter about chatting to the old crew and maybe having the odd adventure, and claims that’s what the series promised to be, but I don’t think that’s true at all and the trailer made it out to be a very different beast.

I can’t say I’m surprised I…

I guess part of the reason I’m enjoying this more than most is I didn’t go into it feeling like I was promised ‘a visit with old friends’. I knew there would be nostalgia and fan service, yes, and it is very effective as this episode shows. But what I was expecting, and wanting, was a new story in the Trek universe -…

I would love to believe that our Elliot was born with the Hello Friend opening speech of the first episode. That those were his first words.

I disagree. As children we’re all taught there are consequences for our behavior, but the richer you get, the less that is the case. You can act however you want and face almost no consequences.

To think, until now I only avoided Razer products because they are overpriced glossy garbage. Now I have Reason #2!

Well, he’s not American, he’s Singaporean, and his crap attitude is typical of the management culture in the tech industry there more broadly. Managers at Creative are also famous for being assholes in precisely the same way. I legitimately wouldn’t be surprised if he has them on his resume- Creative has a horrid…

That guy sounds like a huge asshole. Jesus

It’s almost like you have to be an abusive sociopath to be a CEO in modern capitalistic societies.

I’m reading a book right now that refers to the actual object of these dopes’ worship as Tactical Jesus.

I don’t know what that even means. Sorry.

How do people live normal lives and get angry about these things. Holy crap.

??????????????????

I cannot believe people got mad over this. Amazing. Truly amazing.

Its just a pack-in deal with the shipper. I’m getting them with computer parts orders. 

It sounds tiring to have to continually look for something to get angry about in an attempt to make yourself relevant and feed your desired image on social media.

Absolutely. I used to buy cheap gray office chairs at office Depot or whatever for years (I moved a lot). After 6 months or so, they were all broken in some way, or creaky or uncomfortable or whatever. Bought a big DxRacer chair 4 years ago. It’s held up every day and is super comfortable. I use a Herman Miller at…

*flips back a few pages to choose the other option*

The way this reads reminds me of the bad endings of the old Choose Your Own Adventures books.

Eventually you play for hours on end as the comfort of the chair allows you to play for far longer than in a normal chair. You sink in its folds as it envelopes you. The neck brace is your neck. The backrest becomes a permanent vertebrae. You become an amorphous blob, effortlessly transitioning between chair and…
