/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

This came up recent in a video I watched where they were talking about sidereal vs solar days. I always pronounced it as a two syllable side - real but apparently it's more like a three syllable side aerial .
English is tough.
Bone apple teeth!
Or they saw someone mispronouncing it in a tiktok video.
My mother made fun of me for saying segue incorrectly as a child and that made me never do it to someone else. I just try to work the word they used into a sentence so they can hear the pronunciation I know. Heck, I might be the incorrect one and get a free lesson so it's win-win.
I read the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy in like 3rd or 4th grade (my mom loved them and wanted to share). There's one line describing a "triple-breasted whore of Eroticon Six" which was, at the tender age of ten or so, the first time I'd encountered the word "whore". I pronounced it phonetically with the leading "w" for years before someone corrected me. Not that it came up often, being the kind of ten-year-old who reads stuff like that. But still.
Every now and then I still read it that way in my head and chuckle.
Is this... is this Danny Devito's Lemmy account?
When I first heard him say it on Always Sunny I was like
