  Oh man. As a little kid I burned a LOT of time on the old DOS trek.exe.

  Also still fire up Armada from time to time. With all the new ship classes in Online, I’d love to see an Armada 3.

  I know Louis CK is kinda on the out for references, but this was kinda spot on his bit about entitlement.

  “Something (given out for free) that I didn’t even know about until today, and is just a fun experiment to share and learn from? Not good enough!”

  Last one I went to was trashed and must of the shelves were empty. I keep thinking they could make more cash sub-letting kiosk spaces to smaller tech brands. If there’s funds rock the flea market look, they might as well go all the way.

  It’s kinda “pulpy” and you can nock it out over a weekend. I still think it’s fun 😊

  It’s not “the best”, but Vendetta is a guilty pleasure for tying together one of my favorite TOS stories with my fave TNG villain.

  I LOVED it. Mixing some tension with some comedy, and some brilliantly aware writing. Little glimmers of Jordan Peele, with some of the humor of Black Dynamite. Great movie to giggle at this weekend.
