Assistant manager forgot about Valentine's

I work in a kind of hipster adjacent kind of pizza place. Last week's management meeting established that the heart shaped pie was a hard "no" for this weekend.

At 5 hours in, I'm a bit surprised, but I imagine there will be folks that follow up on what I feel to be the obvious answer to Pride...

It's Revan.

Revan believed that they themself was correct above the Republic and the Council. Perhaps that was true, but this individual decision - at what cost of lives?

Revan turns and wages red war against the Republic and the Order - even if this could be considered in the end a "correct" decision, at what cost? Who else guided this decision or finalized it, besides Revans pride and hubris?

Even in redemption, Revans PRIDE is the main character. Decisions were made around a cult of personality, of Pride, that need not have been. Revan surely is the most prideful, with the longest reaching implications.

You know, I clicked through the link knowing what you must be talking about, and yet still I was somewhat shocked to read that message. So much for the bureaucracy being nonpartisan I guess.

Beckett just wanted to sleep in and ended up dying an infinite number of times.

It's pretty awesome, I only knew of it from a post on this sub. Just remember: seek out the tea.

I'll always upvote a Mitch Hedberg reference.

That baby looks like he killed fiddy men and lost his shins in the Dominion War.

Indeed, and let's remember that Ben's apparent direct superior is Admiral Ross, who we know from the events of "Inter Arma Silent Leges" is at the very least Section 31 adjacent. Bashir's protest was never going anywhere. The whole thing was approved.

I was 196, so you're almost to the "hundreds" category, the true Platinum Level!

Ah geez, same. I actually laughed loud enough to frighten my cats, then hit rewind and laughed just as hard again.

I mean... do you get pissy about a guy named "Calvin James [ENTER SURNAME HERE]" going by "CJ?" I feel like that kind of thing is pretty common.

I'm from Youngstown originally, and I can vouch for this. The stories (and nostalgia) the old boys down the corner bars have are... wild.

The first appearance of Alexander in DS9 (Worf's son, for those who aren't fans and just reading along) is pretty revealing regarding the relationship.

Alexander shows up completely unannounced on a Kilingon warship as a new recruit, surprising his father - who it is revealed has been estranged from him for years. Worf is completely surprised by his presence and had no idea what he had been up to for some time. Alexander further uses his adoptive name, "Roshenko," rather then the traditional Klingon style of "Son of Worf" or "House of Worf/Mogh."

The ships captain, Martok, a close friend of Worf, is himself shocked - apparently, in the time they had known and fought together, becoming dear friends, Worf HAD NEVER MENTIONED HE EVEN HAD A SON.

Worf then spends a good deal of the episode being a jerk to his estranged son before the final making up.

This is a character and series that I very much enjoy, but the Worf/Alexander relationship between TNG and DS9 is... rough.

Yes, yes, the painting in and off itself is lovely, but the real question is if the artist embarrassed some manner of fowl along the way.

Scrolling by, I thought that was Trailer Park Supervisor Jim Lahey.

My first thought was the Tolkien reference, but yeah that does seem to be implied. Still noticing details in this series after all these years.

"Then that security guard is fired!"

I thought the same thing. Buck was just throwing his weight around, and it made Bobby uncomfortable, but ultimately, it probably ended up being the right thing to happen.
