I regret to inform you that you are now obligated to sing this during Klingon karaoke at every convention you attend that has such an event for at least the next year.
In full costume, of course.

@Lydia_K woke up this morning and chose violence.

Mirror universe Alexander would probably still have two living parents.

It’s just 725 episodes and 10 feature films.
11 feature films. You forgot Galaxy Quest.

Lower Decks captures a lot of that Gene Roddenberry “all the characters are good guys” style better than anything since Voyager as far as I’m concerned.
The Orville is on up there too, but I agree Lower Decks is better.

Somebody ought to ask Garrett Wang what he thinks about that. (Remind me 11 months from now and I’ll do it at next year’s Dragon Con if I get the chance.)

Yes, of course you should watch Star Trek! That goes without saying, regardless of your interest in Lower Decks.
(But yes, Lower Decks does make a lot of in-joke references. I imagine it’s still funny without them, but you’ll be missing quite a bit.)
BTW, Lower Decks is only one of three(!) animated Star Trek series now. I’ve only seen the first episode of Prodigy, but I get the impression that it might be less self-referential and thus might be a better introduction.

Physics does not work that way, you insolent fool!
Regardless of Klingon muscles, the fact that the blade sticks out sideways from the handle creates a lever arm that tends to make it droop due to gravity whenever it’s held horizontally. Even if Klingon hands are different, they’re not that different that it’s somehow advantageous to keep torquing upwards so the blade points at the opponent instead of the floor.

Doesn’t count unless you’re actively commissioned/enlisted in Starfleet, though.
- Comment on unapologetic Lower Decks supremacy post 1 year ago:
Either the dude who played T’kuvma had no time to practice Klingon or he had a truly terrible false teeth set that made it impossible for him to speak Klingon.
Hey now, don’t be ableist against Klingons with speech impediments! \s

Honestly, I think a bunch of people (myself included to a degree) got so upset over the Klingons in disco that they’ve collectively decided anything after that is shit.
My nutrek hate is way more about JJ’s galaxy-wide plot holes than it is Disco Klingons.

Same reason lots of school principals are former teachers, I guess?
