Choose Wisely

If you were stuck on a desert island and could only have books/cd's/movies/video games related to one of these two universes, which one would you choose and why?

Star Trek. The sheer volume of crappy material might allow me to construct a raft.

I choose the highly controversial (and unfortunately non-existent) pinup-book "Naked Chicks of Starwars versus Naked chicks of Star Trek" and die 3 days later due to thirst.

I would assume that you can't just make something up.

You know, that just might work... *Goes to see if crossing a body of water in a raft made from Star Trek books could set any world records.*

Anyway, I think I'd choose Trek, simply because there's more of it, and therefor it would have more variety.

Be careful, if you bump into something it might blow up.

Me, I'd choose Star Wars. Why, you ask? Simple, I just don't like Star Trek.

Remind me not to drink anything when I read your posts. Almost spit up on my keyboard...

Well, have not readed any of those "Star Trek novels", but some of the book of the EU are crap too.

Yes, but it's Star Wars crap, and Star Wars crap is still better then Star Trek crap, any day.

Star Wars is a better choice. While Star Trek has more material it is of lower quality compared to Star Wars.

Star Trek.

I cant add up the amount of crap there is related to it on CD....the raft idea would work best with them. Add in tons of useless paper with which to make some kind of sail....or, if you dont want to make the raft, there's enough crap there to build a papiaemachae mansion.

Star Trek
If the raft doesn't work, I can dry it out and make a signal fire large enough to be seen from space

That would actually work. The plastic covers (of the books) ablate water quite well, and you could tie it together and make the inside using the paper. Heating the binding glue up, you could seal up holes in the raft.

If the movies are on VHS tape, then use the actual tape as rope. The CDs are good for signaling people if you see a rescue boat (reflection). You would need a piece of wood or something as an oar.

Just hold on to the Eugenics War duology to read while you're heading home.

Star Trek. The high metaphasic temporal subspatial plasma coefficient of the Star Trek material would make it burn better.

Jawawithagun · Post by **Jawawithagun** » 2004-02-05 08:40pm

Star Trek, don't need to make a raft out of it, just pile it up. The sheer amount of it will create a mountain noticeable from space. And if that doesn't help I can still thumb down a high-flying aircraft.

Darth Yoshi · Post by **Darth Yoshi** » 2004-02-05 08:55pm

I'd pick Star Wars. Sure, a lot of the EU is crap, but it's crap I can stand.

Even better yet, throw some of the Star Trek material into the ocean or burn it, Greenpeace will swift arrive to protest your illegal dumping of hazardous material in the ocean and hopefully give you a ride in exchanging for ceasing the activity.

Star Trek. There's, what? 8 movies? TONS of games, books, etc. Look at the garbage lucasarts has put out under the starwars name...

With the amount of "secondhand" KJA books and Crystal Star hanging around out there, I probably have enough material to start another smog in the pacific

Star Trek. But i intend to do something different. I'll burn it in a fire so hot i can melt beach sand into a glass boat and make a sail out of the remainder of it. Then i'll save some of the (rare) good stuff to prevent boredom on the trip home. Plus i'm hinging my bets on the fact that somewhere, there's star trek related food.

I'd like to point out that if you'd chosen Star Wars, you could simply use the volume of flames generated by the mention of KJA's name to bake the raft, and you could snack on wookie cookies while you sail home. Instead, you will be stuck with Klingon Blood Pie (scroll down to the review, it's mentioned.)
