Star Trek..The TSD Generation...

Allegedly, that's what she said.

 

One of my minor gripes with star trek is that nothing ever really does look lived in. No litter in the halls. Nothing looks worn. Everything's clean and neat. Even the crew quarters. Compare and contrast that against the new BSG...

 

I've thought of that also and I figure it's because they have legions of little Trek bots aboard ship on patrol, continuously re-materializing things and transporting away the trash and such..lol..

 

that, and Rodenberry spent time in the military. the ship cleanliness reflects its pseudo-military nature. It probably also comes from Rodenberry's desire to portray a shining happy future

although... at least in ST:TNG there are families on board. Do you ever recall seeing an episode where you heard a crying child in the background? Or saw a riding toy left out in the hall?

 

...or a parent, in uniform, with a diaper slung over his or her shoulder?

 

They have diaper phasers..2

 

They have phasers for that too..2

 

I bet my Mom would have loved one of those.

 

I want one. And a phaser I can set to sleep, so we can get through this teething stage.

 

Well..there is the standard stun setting, but that's mainly used for Klingon infants.. could prove a little aggressive for the human child..:football:

 

ooh! how about a silent/ mute setting? That way I could ensure my four and six year old don't reverse the sleep setting.

 

Looks like one of the new doggy drive designs..

 

Or is it "air bud"?

 

<facepalm>

 

Wha... Are you trying to kill this thread?

Thank you, kind sir!

 

I got your back. Just use it wisely, the supplies are getting low around here.

 

Lol I think he's fixin' to throw it out the airlock..
