  Wasn’t it that same episode where Rom basically says word for word that he doesn’t support unions because one day he might own Quark’s bar and then he’ll be able to oppress people too? What a great show, some people dislike the ferengi episodes but they’re some of my favorites in the series.

    Who could dislike the Ferengi episodes??

      People with the same mindset as Ferengi and who don’t like to be called out for their shit.

      Ikr? Some people hate 'em. They’re really goofy and cartoonish so I guess I get it. Profit and Lace is pretty tough to watch. The Magnificent Ferengi is my personal favorite (Iggy Pop guest stars too, what a treat!) And I quote the Rules of Acquisition in real life somewhat regularly, heh

        The first couple episodes Rom is a real dick pushing the shit downhill onto Nog but once he goes from basic greedy goblin to engineer savant the dynamic is great

      I’d watch Wallace Shawn read a newspaper.

  I can’t say it’s a fact, but I’m pretty damn sure the inspiration for the Ferengi was Milton Friedman, himself a malignant leprechaun.
