/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.

I love the fact that he trims his beard like that. That's awesome.
9/10 .... that bat'leth should have duct tape hand grips ..... and it should be spotted with rust.
No honorable warrior would allow his weapon to rust.
Who said anything about honor? ..... for Mr. Green, the Klingon Empire should at least find him handsome.
Or duct tape holding one of the pointy parts on after it broke that one time Red tried to prove to Harold that yes he could cut down a tree with it.
His second try did work, proving him right, though Harold contends that it didn't count because the second "tree" barely even qualified as a stick.
"I never said I could cut down an old tree, I just said I bet I could cut down a tree with this thing!" Red wins on that technicality and Harold rolls his eyes and cuts to the next scene.
This, THIS is the type of fan creation that could save the Internets. So sick of harry potter fanfic and all anime, let's pump up RED GREEN, the lodge and HAROLD. yasss
Been low-key nostalgic enough to ponder giving this show a rewatch. Wonder if it aged well. Felt wholesome enough at the time, but I was just a wee lad.
It's still going as a podcast. And, yeah, it holds up, for those of us with a taste for it.
Everyone I know who doesn't enjoy it today never enjoyed it before.
"You mean it didn't get better in all that time?!"
"I mean ... Did anyone expect us to?"
(Roughly quoted from the podcast, haha.)
There's a pod?! ::::drops everything::::
I've been watching bits of it on YT. Still funny, but some of the shine has worn off IMO.
I watched it for the first time recently. In my opinion you can tell its age but it's certainly good entertainment still.
RGS taught me everything I need to know about Canada, marriage, tinkering with explosives and friendship.
I went to see him live a few years ago. I hadn't watched the show in years but have fond memories.
Was a great show, the audience was almost exclusively 50+ guys (so I was an outlier) and the audience participated just like it was a live audience during filming. Goofy, absolutely, but it was good fun.
I don't have the episodes but it's on my list to grab the collection eventually.
The "Winter of Discount Tent" skits alone are worth the time. It's good fun.
And remember: keep your stick on the ice
And remember: Keep your bat'leth on the throat of your enemy!
Who is this?
Red from the Red Green Show.
...15 seasons. Holy crap.
That's also practically a quote from the podcast. Haha.
"I kinda thought people would have gotten tired of us, long before now!"
"Many of them did!"
"Oh. Yeah. I suppose so."
This is beautiful.
Also, I feel like Uncle Red and Scotty could easily be related.
Thank you for the Red Green reference. Good times, good times
I mean, that's actually great advice.
Advice.? Red green is full of it.
The duct tape Council would like to remind you all solutions are temporary.
I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess.
I am a man
But I can change
If I have to
I guess.
And the final one:
I'm a man.
But I changed.
Because I had to.
Oh well.
Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati. When all else fails, play dead.
This is one of my favourite episodes.
Blame me for Red Green.
