Yeah that's basically your classic American barber. Gossipy, usually bored, willing to hang around, joke and talk. That's what I love about actual barber shops, guys in my neighborhood will just hang around there too if their friends/neighbors are getting a cut. It's usually a one hour experience minimum, even though the cut takes 15 min and cost $12.

I always thought the joke was that after almost 400 years, the barbershop experience was the same. You could replace Capt Picard with Andy Griffith and Mot with Floyd and no one would blink.

Oh for sure, but if I have to have someone who's entire duty is ships morale, it's gonna be the bitty who rolls more joints than Willie Nelson.

Interesting. I just started watching new trek after finishing Ds9. Loved lower decks, haven't seen prodigy.

Hold on let me put on my picky nerd hat. OK, should Odo be part of the Kobayashi Maru since he was never technically a starfleet officer, just a security officer employed by the Bajoran Militia? I could see him at tactical, but helm? OK nerd rant over.

It's literally not. Especially if the alternative is not voting at all.

It's hardly a party no one's heard of and yea you would need a majority (duh?). But by all means, don't vote with your principles; treat it like a strategy game and keep perpetuating a broken 2 party duopoly. That's been a great way to affect change over the last century.

So... PayPal?

Seriously can Apple users not use their nfc payments from any app already? That's like decade old shit now.
