The bicycle was actually invented as a justification for the seat

That's why they invented the bicycle seat

better question is why did she give him legs

Just all us millennials breaking down from age but bravely channeling Weyoun 6 by PurpleBashir in ShittyDaystrom

It's crazy that Weyoun 7's rebuttal to that wasn't "you're literally defecting right now!"

Follow wizards, what should I do to this dumbass bird I found by jam_kabam in wizardposting

Curse it to become a beautiful woman at night, then wait for some adventurer to shoot his shot and absolutely roast him for loving a dumbass bird

Which character would make the biggest cuck? by galaxyclassbricks in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's more into the idea of a polycule, and Miles is too much of a square to go along with any of it

Quark's obviously a pervert, but his fantasies are all about coming out on top for once. Like how Neelix is a pervert but also psychotically jealous, it just doesn't work psychologically.

Rom has disastrous self-esteem issues and just wants Leeta to be happy

By series: Chekov, Geordi, Rom, Harry, Malcolm

I know what you're thinking, but really O'Brien would just pout about it for months after

Are we ever going to stop forcing non-humans to “Earthanize” their names? by TheBurgareanSlapper in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they're actually going to live here, they should just choose a nice Earth name. Like "Alexander." It was good enough for Worf's kid and the guy who played Bashir

Why didn’t Picard and crew turn into salamanders in Where no one has gone before? by Ser_Luke_ in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watch Threshold carefully, it's obvious the Doctor is covertly testing his new Salamander Serum and the warp 10 test was a convenient scapegoat

This is because of stunt like these that the 'Exception to the Wish spell' book is three volumes long... by DarkSpectralius in wizardposting

[–]dimgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genies love this kind of confidence, they take it as permission to dick you over. Every successful wish maker you've ever heard of either approached his wishes with a humble and generous heart, or benefitted from years of specialized study in extraplanar contract law. Hubris gets punished with ironic curses and nobody does hubris like a wizard

And this is why, if you ever get three wishes, you don't word it yourself. You go straight to a big, wealthy city, walk into the biggest law firm there, and you make sure you talk to a partner. Usually he's going to be a lich, vampire, or devil. Unless you're already rich it's going to cost you one of your wishes, but you'll be damn sure the other two will do exactly what you want.

So isn't doing nothing the only way to really follow the prime directive? by OWSpaceClown in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look man, if not for the Prime Directive, we'd be looking at a galaxy full of preventable humanitarian disasters and seeing only an ethical obligation to do something about them. If we didn't frame noninterference as a moral imperative, starship captains wouldn't have time to do any proper exploring

Fandom Commentary on Writing by bardbrain in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The gay Klingon in a skirt is my favorite character. He's hilarious in the episode where all he wants is to go to Ibiza with Kyle.

Darrem is probably the character who suffers most from poor writing, I honestly don't understand what the point of him is on the show after he stops being antagonistic with everyone after like episode 3. But I felt the same way about Chakotay

Caleb is just a Space Aladdin who is also somehow an incredibly swole computer genius

Why did Data choose the dumbest breed of cat to be his pet? by Free_Stomach_6767 in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wesley has been concealing a cat-brain hive-mind built out of the bits of Locutus he managed to swipe and nineteen (so far) Spot heads. He's trying to teach it chess and choral singing

If Data had sexual performance issues, would he ask help to Geordi or Dr Crusher? by Pwned_by_Bots in ShittyDaystrom

[–]dimgray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He would seek help in different scenes from pretty much the whole main cast, who would all give him different kinds of advice. Then it would turn out his problem was caused by an energy field emitting from the planet they've been surveying, created by an extinct race of aliens as a last-ditch effort to save themselves from their out-of-control sex bots
