We've been over this many times in the past. People tend to believe that their favorite universes are the best at everything. Look at some of the lengths that rabid-Fivers go to to prevent B5 from losing!

It's okay. I'm just always surprised when someone comes onto the board swinging at everything that's been tackled long ago.

I remember when I was first on the board, I was involved with numerous debates with one "User099," who enjoyed re-hashing old material in countless uninteresting ways while trying to make his points.

Well, thank you Master Ossus. I have looked at this board quite alot acutally, just never on a regular basis. Im a deep SW fan and science nerd, so, ill catch on soon.

Nobody like to think that the things they love are second best. Whether it be football teams, video games, and in this case sci-fi movies. Star trek is and incredibly weak sci-fi universe in terms of power but they don't want to like something that is weak so they Bullshit alot. Starwars is a powerful universe but there are things that we know it couldn't stand up to ie The Culture but we don't try and argue that Starwars can take them on. The problem with trekkies is that they refuse to believe that there are strongers universes out there and that their show is not the "Be all end all" show that they led themselves to believe it is

Well if it helps to answer your question, I get into arguements with people at school over who loses the most sleep.

Lord Sauron-Tyranus-Vader · Post by **Lord Sauron-Tyranus-Vader** » 2002-11-26 10:44pm

Well, if it helps, I get into fights at school over how much sleep we lose

And you being on this board at 11:15 at night is gonna REALLY hurt........

VF5SS · Post by **VF5SS** » 2002-11-26 10:49pm

Eh, I have a half-day tomorrow and then a four day weekend! Plus my engineering drawing class doesn't require that much brainpower so I can rest a bit before stats.

Very nice. However, i attend classes on a comuter, and dont have to get up until like 11 in the morning. Plus, no stupid teachers, no stupid classmates, but sadly, not my girlfriend.

Uhh..... I get woozy tjust thinking about her.

Too bad i got pseudoseizures. Cant go to school, cant do nothing. This online school was the last choice.

Obvious answer: Trek fanaticism + stupidity + internet = DarkStar

Better question: Why do so many people like Star Trek? I mean, it's not like it doesn't suck...

Sod off you moron. There is nothing wrong with liking Star Trek. And the funny thing is people say that the odd movies, Voyager, and ENT are the worst yet they automatically assume that someone who says they like Trek MUST like the entire series. I am a proud Star Trek fan and I admit that most the odd movies blew chunks, Voyager sucked royally, and Enterprise is a pathetic attempt at a prequel series. So get off your fucking high horse and stop insulting people for no reason.
