/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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Which also came back in a Lower Decks episode with Ferengi (who end up turning their poaching camp into a mugato habitat)

Lol I don't remember that at all

It seems as though the collective memory of Star Trek has forgotten it. I have no clue as to why this isn't the single most memed TOS moment.

What’s the episode title? I feel a need to revisit.

How could I forget a Dr. Zoidberg episode.

Did they have to get the pineal gland to cure him?

And, honestly, why is this episode not memed into oblivion? Gorn? Check. Pike beep boop? Check. Poisonous space yeti lizard thing? Nothing. Allow me to offer a crossover:

There's an episode of Futurama where the plot is an obvious parody of this. So that's something at least?

Bonus fun fact: This episode is also the introduction of Dr. M'Benga.

Is this the one where they made the murder pact? Like, "Promise me you'll kill me if it happens"

I originally replied thinking it was a yes, but sadly, I was wrong. I had to watch the whole episode to verify. There is some weird "magic" in this one that confused me there.

I particularly like his little party hat

I thought it was something like an albino gorilla.

It has spines,is poisonous. and a lizard-like tail!
