This, in honor of the death of James Doohan, ‘Scotty’ of the original Star Trek. May he find peace among the stars.
I’m not exactly a Trekkie, but I was a big fan. For those who loved Star Trek, you’ll agree that these are true.
For those who DON’T love it—WHY NOT??!!
10) The crew took pride in themselves & their differences without needing to put others down.
9) Romulan women not only commanded ships, but weren’t afraid to use sex to get what they wanted.
8) Lieutenant Sulu, who would get that little half-smirk on his face whenever ordered to fire, as if to say, “yeaahhh…permission to blast the infidel dogs out of space with my sperm-shaped fulton torpedoes…yeaahhh…”
7) Short-short skirts, leather boots & black stockings–need I say more?
6) The first interracial kiss on national television (even though several Southern states refused to air it, and it was banned in England for nearly 25 years afterward).
5) Roddenberry had the balls to cast his current girlfriend (Majel Barrett) and ex-mistress (Nichelle Nichols) in the same show.
4) If your vibrator battery ran low, you could probably slip a Tribble between your legs.
3) Lieutenant Uhura, who always had her black leather-booted legs crossed, as if to say, “yeah, uh-huh, I’ve got the coochie tucked away right in here, so you can’t have any–and it’s good…”
2) Mr. Spock could go for years without sex, then suddenly go berserk unless he gets it–then suddenly lose the urge when he thinks he’s killed his friend. (And we all know that a human male would’ve gotten a nut first, THEN grieved for his buddy).
1) Captain Kirk, who proved that a dawg is a dawg, even in outer space, by being willing to screw anything with a body temperature or pulse. Or even without one.
