/c/TenForward: 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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

I love her. She's the queen of TMI during Q&A's. Like when she casually dropped that before she met her now husband, she "slept" with just about every single guest star. What a legend.
"Not just the men, but the women and..."
SHUT UP WESLEY
Wesley: "Did he just tell me to shut up?"
Dr. Crusher: "Shut up Wesley."

Guest star. So william didnt get any.
Thomas however…
He just saw what she had for breakfast.
I think it’s safe to say that Gene liked miniskirts.
Does "slept" have yet another meaning, or were they all just playing make-believe?
In many English speaking places, "slept with" is an old euphemism for sex.
I always assumed it was because the couple stereotypically spent the night together and This way you can supposedly "preserve the innocence" of people who don't know.
Yes, that's one of the already-existing meanings I alluded to in my comment. It's also never written with quotation marks.
I was starting to forget why I have you tagged "Insufferable Pedant" in Voyager. Thanks for the refresher.
I never use the tag. Anyone annoying enough that I want to remember not to engage with them, I just default to blocking. Do they post good content or something?
They're just unintentionally funny. I also block most, but instead keep this one and a few others tagged for amusement.
Edit: also for watching their cumulative vote score build over time. They're at -20 as of today.
Sometimes I want to see others give them shit in the answers. If I block them, those are gone as well.
Yeah, how dare I ask for clarification.
Haha, okay. DARVO much?
Sure, Jan.
Yeah would be better if she just said she fucked everyone, damn people these days with their lack of clarity. Argh!
So what's your point and how did you meaningfully contribute to the conversation by essentially asking what it means to sleep with someone and then saying you know what it means to sleep with someone, while somehow having an undeserved air of superiority?
They're being a bit prickly about it, but using quotes like that certainly implied to me as reader that it was meaning a suggestive usage, which doesn't make sense since the plaintext version already means fucking. I mean I understood their meaning and realized they were just unnecessary quotation marks quickly, but I also at first wondered if there was some sort of third meaning beyond rest or sex that was being suggested by the marks, so I kind of feel like the reaction to them here is a bit overblown.
Sorry, I'm confused. Weren't we talking about human language here, or are you using "never" figuratively?
(The quotation marks here are referring to acual quotation of the word you used, not a standard feature of the way the word is normally written or an indicator of some alternate meaning. I'm spelling this out because just in case you're unaware of that usage of quotation marks, which frequently occurs in the context of quoting someone. Unless you're literally asserting that the word "slept" is never quoted, "never" is a strong word to use.)
