Just means that when Trump pisses in the wind, we get the golden shower.

Bed bugs are usually in a straight line (they follow your veins). Could this be something other than an insect bite?

But by then, Frodo would go by the name Dollum.

Already lost to a bunch of hoodlums (hoodla?) who TAKE the piss. And then kick the shit out of you.

In other words, “trumped-up” charges?

Here, put this on one of those cards:

“Be the change you want to see”

That’s one C-suite that doesn’t even need to be replaced by AI. Based on what he says, he could probably be replaced by a simple, dumb script.

Me too. Michael Garibaldi from B5 is a pretty traffic figure. He’s kind of the Miles O’Brien of his series: the one who’s made to suffer more than most (though I’d have to say all the regulars get their fair share of suffering, looking back.) But he does get beaten up, shot in the back, and worse throughout the series.

I really thought this was an AI generated image until I saw your comment.

Practice makes perfect! If you don’t succeed, try, try again!

That’s another good choice!

They admitted, with obvious glee

Kinda surprised no one here has mentioned the Barney Miller theme, even though it’s pretty old. It’s a banging jazz fusion tune.

Canada here. Please, Europe, make it a condition for any future trade deals between us that we have to ban the Cybertruck here as well. I’ve already seen too many of them on the roads here for comfort…

We’ll finally get to find out which of these:

• Artificial intelligence
• Military intelligence

… is the biggest oxymoron.

I mean, all practicing Christians eat of the body of Christ and drink of his blood…

Nog went up the ranks more quickly because of the war, which provided him with many opportunities. Also, his connections, which allowed him to intern on DS9 and the Defiant, again in the context of war.

Harry was on a ship isolated from Starfleet. If Janeway had promoted everyone who had the merit, she’d have had a ship full of commanders and a handful of captains by the time they got home. But most of those people would have had to keep doing the same jobs, anyway.

But the true reason for the discrepancy noted by OP is just down to the fact that Voyager’s writing team just wasn’t as good as DS9’s (or they were held back from above). The only characters to have a meaningful arc on Voyager were the Doctor, and Seven. The others mostly just had to reset at the end of every episode to preserve the show’s episodic nature.

Harry never got promoted because the writers never figured out how to evolve his function on the show. Now, I assign a small part of the blame to Garrett Wang himself: he rarely gave performances that stood out and made the writers want to write about him more. But most of the blame goes to the writers and show-runners.

For example, if they’d exploited dual crews more throughout the series, with more conflict, etc., Harry might have found a place. Imagine if the Maquis crew had had their own ship for a big part of the series? Harry, eventually frustrated at being passed over for promotion, might have joined them!

Sand on the nips just doesn’t seem to cut it in this context…

Here’s how I understand it: at the time, he thought the penalty was for braking under the safety car, which he thought was bullshit considering how many times Max slowed down just before restarting a race, in the past. He didn’t hear that the penalty was for “erratic driving”.

So, thinking the penalty was bullshit, and that the team were challenging it, he figured he was owed the lead once it would be overturned.

That’s how I figure his reasoning, anyway.

Or it’s about bestiality.
