Messing Around With The Prime Directive

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the when-the-reporters-and-journalists-come-i-will- dept.

One of the humour sites that I enjoy, SatireWire is back with a look at the daily struggles of the Enterprise orbiting the current Earth. Considering the last reaction to Star Trek, I figured people would like this.

    The previous article [satirewire.com] is much funnier (imho), and probably the best I've read from satirewire in a while.

  3. They can't interfere! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Funny

    How can they interfere? We're right on schedule. Enterprise is 150 years from now, and in the series premier they complained that the Vulcans had been keeping the humans tied down for a hundred years. That only gives us 50 years to get WW3 out of the way and have that drunken leach invent warp drive. If the nukes don't get me I might even live to see it. Woo hoo!

    ... pattern matching, which necessitates illogical responses.

    You'd better not tell Larry Wall.

    Redefinition of the scale. Imagine:

    Worf: The Borg ship is following us and catching up!
    Picard: Increase speed to warp 9.99999999999999999999999999999345671235...
    [Borg ship destroys enterprise before Picard could finish stating the speed]

    Similarily, I can easily tell you my old small car can go 180, and most British and American people won't believe me (because they'll think in terms of mph while I'm talking about kph).

    So, could NCC-SpinalTap go to warp 11?
