(sorry I liked that song)


They do look familiar because they are related. One's a Hot Blooded branch, whilst the others have adopted a Cold as Ice approach to life. Common origins, different stylists.

I'm gonna wiki Star Trek so I can "nerd up." I seriously thought I was a nerd up until this thread. It shows me a whole new level of nerdism.



What song is that by the way?

Glory's Sun 07-17-2008 10:05 AM

Will Wheaton is a cool dude, Met him last year at PAX, he's really a down to earth guy, and yeah, he's a "man" now but he'll forever be immortalized by his role in that show.

That's because they're descended from a common ancestor--they just went very very different directions.

EDIT: I guess Leto already answered this question...missed the second page.

And somewhere I still have some BOP magazines from the late 80s with Wil Wheaton posters, lol.

Seer666 07-17-2008 10:57 AM

So, why is it assumed that because the standard romulan military hair cut looks like shit it's an immutable feature or the race? Could be they have some kick ass hair cuts back on the home world.

And if I had to go wit one of the choices give, I'll take the forehead of doom, though I would rather go all out with a borg eye laser thing. total bad ass

Didn't Wil Wheaton do gay porn after TNG?

No, you're thinking of the kid from The Toy (with Richard Pryor). He also played Flick in "A Christmas Story".

JumpinJesus 07-17-2008 11:02 AM

That's right.

Glory's Sun 07-17-2008 11:17 AM

I love how the two of you are up to date on your gay porn actors.

I keep up to date on it on the off chance you ever come to a Cubs game. We can only talk about beer and how much the Yankees suck for so long. I know gay porn occupies the majority of your waking moments, so it's something for us to talk about.

And the kid from The Toy was in straight porn, as I remember. JJ's just seeing the beard and thinking about "jail pussy". You know how HE is.

it took you that long to come up with that?

but yes.. I suppose you are correct gay porn does occupy the majority of my waking moments considering the fucking cubs are all over the media..

What the fuck, man??

This thread is about Klingons, Romulans, and Ferengi, not about your Netflix queue, Jazz.

No, this thread is about

Besides, Netflix doesn't ship porn, gay or straight.

JumpinJesus 07-17-2008 11:56 AM

I change my answer. I give up the Romulan hair and I take the Klingon forehead...so I can headbutt Jazz.

Qapla'!! (apparently I spelled it wrong earlier).

inBOIL 07-17-2008 02:43 PM

Interesting conundrum. On the one hand, while the haircut is permanent, no mention was made of plastic surgery to correct the Klingon/Ferengi deformities, so I must assume that this is allowed. However, if these disfigurements are widespread among the population, the Romulan haircut might become fashionable. This would mean choosing it would save you a lot of time,effort, and money on haircare. While a ridged forehead would be useful for headbutting, I can't imagine that behavior would become socially acceptable, so that's of dubious usefulness. But big ears would improve your hearing, and there's no harm in having one more erogenous zone.
Overall, I think the ears are the best choice.

inBOIL, you made me laugh so heartily I nearly fell from my seat.

robot_parade 07-17-2008 03:49 PM

I already have very 'sensitive' ears (as in the slightest touch can be arousing), so I'd go with Ferengi. Just watch the ears, ladies, unless you want more Robot than you can handle.

Atreides88 07-17-2008 04:27 PM

A Star Trek wiki for those not up to date on their Trek knowledge.

For me, I'd rather be a Q.

radioguy 07-18-2008 08:07 PM

i'm not into the trekkie stuff, so i'll just pass along some info...just in case you care, the star trek experience at the las vegas hilton will be closing this year. if you've never been, you need to go check it out! great bar there as well!

Yep, this thread is biased against the Andorian Imperial Guard.

The physical appearance question isn't as interesting as "which species/society in Star Trek would you want to be a member of?" I'd absolutely love to visit Vulcan and learn their various cultural aspects and practices. The fact that an atheistic, logical, and essentially emotionless society holds so firmly to it's rich cultural heritage is absolutely fascinating.

JumpinJesus 07-19-2008 10:13 AM

No no no no no no no no no no no no no...we don't get to go all willy nilly picking whoever we want to be.....


Aw, fuck it.

I'm Picard.

Hyacinthe 07-19-2008 08:22 PM

I would probably pick Romulan as the lesser of the 3 evils

However I do feel it's necessary to point out that not all Romulan women have that haircut - take the commander who tried to seduce Spock to defect to the Romulan Star Empire

genuinegirly 07-19-2008 09:57 PM

Touche! Now that's a hairstyle that appears far from steel.

ratbastid 07-20-2008 04:05 AM

Yeah, but that was TOS, which was before cannon was properly established. TOS klingons' forehead ridges were done with MAKEUP for god's sake. MAKEUP!!

ItWasMe 07-20-2008 08:10 PM

I googled images of all 3.

I'm sure the ferengi thing is just the sweetest thing to ever walk the planet Earth, but man does it look nasty!

I was looking at the klingon images with a toddler on my lap, when she pointed to this one and said "It's Mama! It's baby's mama!" So I guess I'll go with this one.

This. Klingons with Self Control. If I had a choice of cultured evil and barbarian savagery, I'll take evil. If not, well, of the three, Klingon for me.

Ferengi ears are HAWT! Plus you can cover them if you want...

If you're going to reason about it that way, then you're already ferengi, big ears are just the icing on the funny looking cake.
