GLORY TO YOU AND YOUR HOUSE!
fires second spread of photon torpedos into the HOA president’s lawn
You fired a full spread of anti-matter warheads and only the truck blew up!? You got lucky.
Truck was too big, anyway.
How you know it’s fake: firing weapons are a command to a body that presses a button.
They wouldn’t trust something as destructive as torpedoes or phaser banks to voice commands. Just self destruct.
Wouldn’t they? They keep trying
- M5
- whatever the living construct was able to hijack in Prodigy
- The drone ship things in Lower Decks
- The fleet network thing in Picard
- Control in DISCO
Funny how pretty much all but one are from NuTrek.
M5 was just 1960s sci-fi extrapolation to teach a moral lesson. It self destructed because it has violated the “rules of man and God.” So maybe not the best example.
Everything else was probably just writers poisoned by having an Alexa at home.
The difference between Star Trek and Star Wars was that Star Trek ships were always based on naval ships. Ensigns and whistles when the captain was on the bridge. That’s the point of the comment. Star Wars is cowboy laser fantasy. Order and discipline are part of the Federation such that an individual isn’t zooming around the Alpha Quadrant on their own the same way that no single human is piloting an aircraft carrier around the Pacific right now with a joystick that pops out of the floor when the actual full controls are just right there anyway.
Are you familiar with America’s air traffic control systems?
I had exactly this happening all the time. I couldn’t watch star trek because that echo dot thing would be responding multiple times per episode
This feels like a stealth smart speaker ad
“Alexa, FIRE EVERYTHING!!”
Next morning, the front page of the final edition of The Washington Post reads

His shields weren’t working? First hit just caused hull damage?
Unless he was running at Yellow Alert, his shields would have been down.
A lot of home shield generators these days lie about the amount of defensive energy they can muster and simply overload and shut down the first time they get really challenged. They are often optimized for the little 3MW phasers they use to demonstrate them at trade shows.
Though this happens because people just want to hook their home shield generator to the grid rather than set up the proper antimatter-based power source. Even with high quality supercapacitors storing energy over time, it often ends up with only enough energy to deflect the direction of photon torpedos rather than stop them entirely (which is probably why it hit the garage rather than the living room, at least).
Their neighbor must be Romulans in disguise
You know your neighbor is a Romulan when you acccidently torpedo their house and then it cloaks and they spend the entire night laying gravitic mines throughout the subdivision.
Look, Kevin always parks in the neutral zone, so in some way he had it coming.
Not sorry, Mr. Sorbo.
