/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

The issue wasn’t opening them initially, the issue was with the flat edges on the sides where the two sides were fused together, and along which the layer of connected popsicles were connected. You put the popsicle in your mouth and it felt like you were slicing the corners of you mouth with a razor blade.
Maybe you had a really large mouth as a child? Idk. Now I’m wondering how you hurt yourself with these things lol.
That's what I mean, I didn't!
The plastic wasn't a danger unless you were doing something absurd like putting plastic in your mouth and then tightening your lips to a dangerous degree. And that would be very easy to stop doing, you just... Don't hold so tight with your mouth.
It's not like you eat these like drinking a thick milkshake. You suck too hard, you pull all the flavor out and are left with flavorless ice. I would always rather have flavored juice left over
Ah see that’s where you’re mistaken. The concentrated hit of flavor juice was like kiddie crack.
Edit - you said you opened them like three times with your teeth then only used scissors from then on, so I assumed you hurt yourself during the opening process.
See, I preferred to save that for the end, so it ended on a high note. Being stuck with boring ice in the end just left me feeling like the whole thing was a bummer.
Like chewing a stick of Fruit Stripe gum
That fucking zebra bro.
