Tamarian language has a number of in-universe phrases, with "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra", "Sokath, his eyes open", and "Shaka, when the walls fell" being probably the most popular.

Which phrases would be in the language, if Star Trek was used the source for myths and metaphors? Here are a couple of examples that I've either seen somewhere else or came up with myself.

  • "Sisko, his plan thwarted." – when something is fake (scene from "In the Pale Moonlight").
  • ~~"Q's present to Data"~~ "Q's gift to Data" – laughter (from this scene)
  • A bunch from the root beer scene in DS9 (a favorite of mine):
    • "Quark's Kanar" – useless merchandise
    • "Garak drinks root beer" – disgust
    • "Quark and his cousin's moon" – envy
  • "Pulaski calling Data" – mispronunciation (scene)
  • "Kira Nerys and pottery" – about a vocation or a hobby that is imposed on a person (from her D'jarra in DS9 episode "Accession")
  • "Picard's four lights" – resiliency under pressure/torture (scene)
  • "Data is fully functional" – sexual proficiency (scene)
  • "Lieutenant junior grade Picard" – lack of ambition (TNG episode "Tapestry")

What do you think of these? I'd love to hear more examples. I'd also appreciate improvements in wording, because some of the above are pretty awkward.

Fella just cant stomach human food. Expains the prune juice too. New headcanon confirmed.

I feel compelled to watch them, but they've been mostly cringy and seemingly not for people who like Star Trek. "Holograms all the way down" being the exception.

[OC] As always, feel free to share/repost anywhere you want.

This may be the dumbest meme I've made yet, lol

Edit: At 85 points this post is only a couple downvotes short of the post I made a couple days ago that's sitting at over 1000 points.

That's just sad.

Trans homies are still homies. Cope.
