Stupid Star Trek Dilema

[flynn]

The mind of the average night shift worker can be a scary place.<br /><br />Long story short, I was talking to a fellow sci-fi nerd last night and we were trying to decide....<br /><br />If you had to, you really had no choice....<br /><br />Would you **** a Gorn or a Ferengi?<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#800080">"All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring.

Not so sure thats the mind of the average night shift worker, LOL. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><strong>My borrowed quote for the time being:</strong></p><p><em>There are three kinds of people in life. Those who make it happen, those who watch it happen...and those who do not know what happened.</em></p> </div>

 

[jmilsom]

Why limit your selection to those two? <br /><br />Why not make a poll? I'd go for the Gorn. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

I'm sure I could make myself do it if I was at gunpoint. But stranded on a deserted planet with no chance of rescue?<br /><br />A Ferengi female I might consider doing the deed with, if I cared about her enough to see beyond the sharp teeth and enormous ears.<br /><br />A Gorn? No way. Having sex with a reptilian alien would be too much like bestiality.<br /><br />The mere fact that I gave this question any kind of thought means that I can renew my nerd identification card... <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />

[spacefire]

can someone post a pic of a gorn? Never heard of that species.<br /><br />The ferengi ears have some good usage <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br />Plus I remember that Ferengi females are always naked.<br />So...alone with one, after some time... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>http://asteroid-invasion.blogspot.com</p><p>http://www.solvengineer.com/asteroid-invasion.html </p><p> </p> </div>

gorns are the lizardmen with crumpled balls of aluminum foil for eyes and old window screen for ear patches that appeared in one episode of TOS

 

[MeteorWayne]

A highly accurate description.<br />Somehow I can't imagine the Gorn females (?) would be much more attractive.<br />All the ST series have had their attractive females, and several lived on the ship.<br />I'd work my way through them before I started experimenting <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

[MeteorWayne]

And if you look at my current sigline, they didn't call 'em "Horta" for nothing.<br />The corrosive fluids could be a real turnoff, though <img src="/images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

The Gorn had to be one of the cheesiest and cheapest "alien" ever to disgrace an ST series. It looked like a crappy halloween costume. No realism at all. The mouth didn't move at all (plaster of paris mask I assume) And what kind a civilization, with warp capacity, still has guys running around in loin cloths and Jesus sandals?

The females have quite small ears. I remember there was on episode of DS:9 where we met a transvestite female Ferengi. She had prosthetic ears that she had to glue on every morning. Basically, the females are very subjugated, so she was taking the obvious route out by pretending to be male. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><font color="#666699"><em>"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly . . . timey wimey . . . stuff."</em>  -- The Tenth Doctor, "Blink"</font></p> </div>

<blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr /><p>She had prosthetic ears that she had to glue on every morning<p><hr /></p></p></blockquote><br />So, in other words, she had to do a "Nemoy". <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><em>So, again we are defeated.

Now you know why I didn't even bother taking the <i>Star Trek</i> trivia quiz. My score would be something like, "You are the dude in the red shirt." <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

[jmilsom]

The ferengis worry me though. All that excess cartilage to contend with. Who knows how they are configured down below. <br /><br />(And after noticing what I've just written 'Goodness me Flynn, don't you have anything better to do!!!) <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

 

[lampblack]

Just to prove that you can indeed find just about anything on the internet: the Gorn Home Page.<br /><br />http://www.70disco.com/gornpage.htm<br /><br />If these are the only two choices available in all the vast galaxy, a Ferengi damsel is the way to go. She would have the advantage of being at least remotely mammalian. (Can you say "bosoms"?) <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#0000ff"><strong>Just tell the truth and let the chips fall...</strong></font> </div>

 

[vogon13]

Anyone contemplating trysting with a Gorn should realize that they probably have a cloaca like other lizards do.<br /><br />If a suitor to a lady Gorn doesn't know what a cloaca is, he is in over his head . . . . <br /><br /><br /><img src="/images/icons/tongue.gif" /><br /><br /><br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>
