I wouln't say that anyone who has ceased to post every time you rant has "realized that they couldn't win" Omega. It's more like "oh, great he comes Mr. conservative frontal lobotomy boy who only hits one note over and over and over and over..."

Anyone else reminded of Spaceballs?

Computer: This ship will self destruct in 10... 9... 8... 6...
President Scroob: What happened to the 7?!?
Computer: Just kidding. 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... this ship will now self-destruct. Have a nice day.
Scroob, Dark Helmet and Colonel Sanders: Thank you!!!

In the STNG episode conspiracy, when Riker and Picard are firing at the Mother creature, Riker raises his phaser to shoot commander wotshis-faces head.
Riker is on the right but the left phaser beam raises for the kill - a bit out of character for Picard, Don't you think?

Er.

Riker is on Picard's left facing the camera. When the screen switches to face Remmick, Riker's phaser beam SHOULD be on the left side.

I can't remember which episode, it might have been "Family" or "Brothers", but Riker congratulates Data on his first metaphor, when he had actually used a simile.

That's uber-nitpicking.

Besides, I don't think it counts as a nit. Riker's hardly the celeverest chap in the universe, is he?

Right, just remember "Starship Mine": what were the terrorists after? The residue Trilithium.
What's Riker's comment in "Generations" about that matter? "Trilithium? What on Earth is that supposed to be?"
Probably he skipped the "Basic Warp Propulsion Systems" class at the academy. ;-)

In "The Hands of the Prophets", when Odo is first talking with Quark and then O'Brien at the replomat ...

If you look at the 2nd level railing, you can see people walking around. The same two gold-shirt Starfleet officers walk back and forth, out of camera range, then back on again. I just noticed this watching the ep again and I thought it was amusing ...

Actually, if you look closely enough in any television show depicting crowds walking back and forth, you'll tend to see that kind of thing with extras. A few years ago I was an extra on Homicide: Life on the Street, and I was told to simply walk back and forth in front of the camera while shooting was going on. It was probably more pronounced here because the extra's uniforms stood out more than regular clothes do.

Lisa: "Don't you remember the story of Oedipus?"
Homer: "Maybe five dollars will refresh my memory."
Lisa (angrily): "Oedipus was the story of a man who kills his father and marries his mother!"
Homer: "Uggh! Who pays for that wedding?"

I loved that show.

Speaking of Homicide, I was just down at JHU. Er. I thought I'd just throw that in.
