Alright. im bored. And inspired by the end of lower decks I have a question for ya'll: Whats your "warp" phrase?
Explainer for non scifi fans
The captain of the ship usually has their own phrase when they want the ship to go fast. "Engage!", "Make it so", "Punch It" and "Warp Me!" are all examples. You dont need to "get scifi" to have one. Just imagine your sitting in a captains chair, what is your catchphrase to make the ship go fast?I grew up in the country and with 00's pop culture. So mine would probably be "Lets fuckin' GOOOOO!" which is bogan as shit but I stand by it.
Don't dilly-dally.
Hehe. The arabic word for walk is m-she. If I'm walking with a slow poke I like to do a whipping action and command "m-she m-she".
๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ that's adorable.
Giddy up or quick sticks. I'm sure there's more.
I also like to say "Press play".
Oh i like Giddy Up! will you be pairing this with a cowboy had an a bit of straw out of your mouth? Cause thats a pretty cool look on a starship.
No I like to wave an imaginary lasso.
Mine is 'chop chop!' With some emphasis. Next level down is 'Let's pronto this'.
