/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Looking for the right Star Trek typeface/font for your meme? (Thank you @kellyaster for putting this together!)
I honestly do not like this meme. Rom is the opposite of crude. He is sweet and caring, which is why Leta loves him and also why many fans, myself included, love him. I get that it's a joke, but using the very wrong character in my opinion.
Now if you had used Bashir, fine.
It would need to be Garak talking to Bashir.
I agree with that and I am actually glad you voiced the opinion because seeing all the upvotes on this makes me wonder about the communities taste a bit.
I'm a simple man, I saw Leeta and hit the arrow.
People probably saw it and had a slight chuckle and hit the up arrow.
I think that's probably it. It doesn't need to be authentic or true to the character to elicit that response. I doubt it's some deep thing, or that there's something seriously wrong with the community.
Besides, I think the fact that this is extremely unlike Rom is somewhat of a subversion of expectations, and is a deliberate part of the joke. I think that's being missed.
I'm well aware that Rom would never say that, but nor would the vast majority of characters say what they do in the memes posted here.
