Hey hey! Kirk didn’t do anything wrong! He had a child with Carol Marcus but it was Carol who did want him around. Jim is the innocent father.
Kirk was described by one of his peers at the Academy as "a pile of textbooks with legs."
Picard got stabbed in the heart during a game of space pool and had a laugh about it.
Kirk barely survived encountering Trelane by getting Trelane's parents involved.
Picard tangled with Q on a regular basis and continually maintained the respect and admiration of a nigh-omnipotent being.
Kirk fucked around.
Picard fucked hard.
Okay okay okay.
It's a funny meme, but Picard had more game than Kirk and it's not even close.
Kirk was a super nerd who did super nerd shit to beat a unbeatable test.
Picard got into bar fights with nausicans and threw down with klingons.
The only reason anyone thinks it's the other way around is their first officer.
Spock was the super level headed logical voice of reason, and anyone looks like a bad ass hunk in comparison.
In contrast, Riker would bang anything with a pulse that was willing. Arguably anything femme enough, or at least masc-stereotype enough, that also wanted him, was open for The Riker Maneuver. And anything standing in his way either gets intimidated or beaten down.
I challenge anyone to find mea being that looks like a slutty hothead in comparison to Riker.
Janeway and Sisko aren’t in this scene because they’re out doing actual starfleet shit.
By "Starfleet shit" you mean breaking the Prime Directive and committing genocide? That tracks.
I mean with the Borg, genocide really is the only option. I think it's stupid that nobody ever bothered to just build a fleet of piloted, cloaked warp missiles. The pilots don't even need to die, they can be in warp-capable shuttles that detach from the stealth missiles, leaving them to saturation-slam into every piece of Borg bullshit in system at warp 9.
That feel when you've been cucked by a ghost.
"So, for the rest of these movies, no more diplomacy. You're going to make me a goddamn action hero!"
After TNG there were no new generations. That ship might as well have been on a religious cruise.
Season 3 of Picard refutes part of panel 2. Also, dozens? I can only remember David, though I’m not as well-versed in TOS.
I won't stand for this horndog Picard erasure.
Right?! Picard could fucking get it.
I don't remember all of them, but only a couple of those are legit he got game...
Absolutely. Some of those were more to highlight his mystique and appeal. The simulation... he did eventually accept it as his reality and had kids. Is that coercion since it's part of a historical record? Very curious.
