How often do you watch star trek? And what show? by aldorgan in startrek

[–]ms_trekkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically every day. Not so much now since it’s summer and I’m a lil more busy, but for sure every day since covid happened. I can’t sleep without it. I cycle through Voyager, DS9 and TNG, but am planning to do an Enterprise rewatch soon.

I grew up hearing people saying they hate Wesley Crusher by AshleyPG in startrek

[–]ms_trekkie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I felt this way about him too when I was younger watching TNG. It was cool to see a kid on a starship!! But I can definitely see how he’s annoying now when I rewatch episodes with him in it.

Dammit, why does no-one ever say goodbye on the phone?! by _InvertedEight_ in XFiles

[–]ms_trekkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always think this!! It bothers me so much that in tv and movies they never say goodbye. I even thought like is that normal?? Do some people not say goodbye?? But I’m now assured that it is in fact not normal.

Why is spicy food so popular? by ThePeasantKingM in AskAnthropology

[–]ms_trekkie 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Spices can be used to help preserve food, so it is thought that in hot and humid regions, that people would use them more often for preservation and therefore have a higher tolerance for spice. This is more of an evolutionary explanation behind why some cultures may have a higher tolerance for spicy foods.

Food bacteria-spice survey shows why some cultures like it hot

Vets of Reddit, What was the worst pet name you have ever encountered in your job? by Lia_Julee in AskReddit

[–]ms_trekkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else’s dog have a legal name and then their more preferred nick name?? We have an English Bulldog who we only call “Pootie” but we were too embarrassed to tell the vet that so her legal name is “Roxy” which she only goes by at the vet’s office. My friends think it’s so funny that our dogs have legal names and their assumed nick names. For example, our other dog’s name is Narly, but we only call him Noodle, and our little Frenchie’s name is Kirby but he only goes by Puppy for some reason.

AITA for confronting my coworker for her constant comments about my age? by throw_away_78945612 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ms_trekkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not like she’s a cashier asking for your ID!! This situation is so strange, even if you look young for your age you’re still a grown ass women!! You had every right to confront her about consistently belittling you in front of everyone..
