  Not every line of dialogue is has a memory alphabet citation, and I’m not going to go rewatch almost a thousand episodes and a dozen films to figure out where I heard it just to satisfy your curiosity.

  I’m sorry if that’s not good enough for you, but I think I’ve been reasonably patient with your repeated demands for a citation. This isn’t a court of law. I’m here to have a fun, casual conversation, not to be interrogated.

    Actually, every line of dialogue does have a Memory Alpha citation. At least if it has any sort of lore impact. Memory Alpha has articles the most random and niche of stuff, including every line of Treknobabble. I also never asked for you to rewatch all the episodes and films. I asked for a general area of where you heard it. Even a series would have been something. I also didn’t demand. I reasonably requested multiple times and then insisted when you outright ignored me everytime. Ignoring someone is not being patient. That is being rude and dismissive. It also heavily undermines your argument because you outright refused to defend yourself when given multiple chances.

    This was a fun casual conversation until this random turn. If you had, at any point, said that you weren’t sure where you heard it then that would have been something. Instead you refused to even bother to engage with that in the slightest and ignored me on multiple occasions. That’s just rude but this backhanded snark is far worse.

    I’m just going to go ahead and ignore everything you said about hull polarization. There seems to be nothing to back up your case whatsoever and you seem to have zero interest in backing up your claim. I have zero interest in engaging with someone who acts on such bad faith. Goodbye.

      Man, I feel bad that you made yourself this upset over nothing. It really isn’t that important.

      Have a better day.
