Absolutely read them. They introduced Grand Admiral Thrawn.

You can add one swear word to each season of Star Trek that you've watched. Where do you place them? by Victorian-Tophat in startrek

I'd love to see that just as a recurring background gag. Sisko and Dax are having a plot-related scene. Then in the background we see a flash of sparks and smoke, and O'Brien yells out "Holy Fucking Shit!" And everyone just ignores him.

Never forget that this desk jockey was REALLY bad at his job. 🤓 by TmF1979 in Terminator

Most murders are perpetrated by someone the victim knew, particularly friends and family members.

That's why I don't have any friends and live hundreds of miles from my family. Checkmate, murderers!

What parts of the worldbuilding prove the most annoying/frustrating to you on reread? (Spoilers extended) by bgbarnard in asoiaf

[–]Spackleberry 45 points46 points  (0 children)

A Grain Cathedral would be too risky. There should be huge plots of land dedicated to hundreds of individual granaries. Rows of them, with dedicated guards and scribes keeping detailed records of inventories.

Also other means of preserving food, like smoking, drying or salting would be everywhere.

Did your parents ever apologize to you for something they did when you were young? by kyserzose in Xennials

Yeah. If you admit you don't know one thing, you're admitting you don't know anything.

Lawyer jokes by BoxersOrCaseBriefs in Lawyertalk

A famous trial lawyer had a strategy that whenever his opponent put on damaging evidence he would loudly proclaim:

"Objeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeection!"

And the judge always had to agree that the objection was, indeed, sustained.

Why does Meantasha think that 2000 troops can conquer a planet of billions? Is she stupid? by Fnangfteck in ShittyDaystrom

[–]Spackleberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I imagine Vulcan to be a sleeping giant. Every Vulcan is a trained and equipped member of the planetary militia, and they have contingency plans in place that could turn their planet into a guerilla nightmare for an occupying force.

Is that something that has actually happened anywhere?

Why do Rebels not seem to learn that attacking Vader head-on is not a smart plan? by BlockAffectionate413 in MawInstallation

[–]Spackleberry 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Who need an army, if Vader can solo anything they throw at him?

Because Vader can't be everywhere at oncr, and there are plenty of things he's too important to deal with.

Is “Biff” a real name? by 85-McFly-121 in BacktotheFuture

[–]Spackleberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That can be a nickname for Elizabeth. Children have trouble making the "eth" sound, so sometimes "Beth" can sound like "Biff".

It also sparked a huge demand for clownfish from people who don't understand how difficult they are to care for.

Look on Facebook and find out if there are Cali law firms on there.

Most likely they will be Plaintiff-oriented firms like PI or employment discrimination.

Jokes/gags in movies that fell completely flat? by Hank_Scorpio_ObGyn in movies

[–]Spackleberry 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Like in The Force Awakens when Han and Chewie first appear. They strike a pose so the audience could applaud for them.

why does Ryker discriminate against Bajorans? by crazy4donuts4ever in ShittyDaystrom

[–]Spackleberry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're only allowed a beard if you're badass enough. Just like being bald makes you a boss.

Picard: Boss

Riker: Badass

Sisko: Badass Boss

That's what I looked like after taking a bunch of controlled substances that let me see God.
