feature called a 'fuse'.

7. Or indeed Fatass has any job at all in the Federation.
That's the bit they don't want you to know about! The Federation is virulently anti-fatist, and puts all its fat people to work as slaves in the doughnut mines of Subcutaneous Seven.

18. well, at warp speed it was found that since fatties have more mass
Edited on Fri Nov-21-08 04:59 PM by DS1
to increase with speed, they either had to be placed center mass of the ship, or they would be a few 1,000ths of a degree off course after a day at warp factor 8. which is a long fucking way.

so they put them all down in storage

Here's Ensign Waddams auditing the replicator

21. NO. Hence the lowercase.
Slash- a guy in a stupid hat who used to be in a band with a douchebag in a kilt.

slash- bad fan fiction which involves creating (generally same sex) romances for the existing roles, such as Kirk/Spock.

The Enterprise gets involved in an enigmatic, stange, and
dangerous situation, and there are no pesky aliens they can blame it
on in the end.

22. An entire episode is driven by Starfleet enlisted personnel.
Assuming Starfleet even HAS enlisted personnel. Is EVERYONE in Starfleet an officer? :shrug:
