Listen I've been preaching this forever but I will preach it once again - if you really want to understand, if you really want to get it. If you are ever sitting there like "I wonder why we're like this?" In regards to fandom you need to just sit down and watch Star Trek, not The Alternate Original Series movies, not Deep Space Nine, not Voyager, not Next Gen (though they all do have their place). Sit down and watch the original series.

Where did this come from? - Have you watched Star Trek?

Why do we do this? - Have you watched Star Trek?

Who invented this trope? - Have you watched Star Trek and then interacted with Old Star Trek fan material?

It's not the worst, it's not the best, and despite what many people may say or think it's not even the longest lasting - but it is foundational - and where you are now with your fandom(s) of choice would likely not exist the way it does without it.

I'm not taking criticism at this time

[Description: A tiered meme format, titled: "Goin' to the home improvement store". Below this is a table, with one column listing various activities, and the other having pictures of characters from Star Trek: The Original Series, aligned to which activity they would partake in. They are as follows:

"Fell in the cacti display while wandering around the gardening section," with a picture of Sulu.

"Being yelled at by employees while frantically ascending the forbidden orange stairs," with two pictures, one of Spock and one of Kirk.

"Taking sick af selfies in the lighting section," with a picture of Yeoman Janice Rand.

"Shitting in the display toilets," with a picture of lieutenant Kevin Riley.

"Tokyo drifting one of those flatbed carts down the aisles," with a picture of Scotty.

"Lying on the fucken flatbed, holding on for dear life," with a picture of Pavel Chekov.

"Lovingly touching all the carpet samples," with a picture of Uhura.

"Stealing paint chips for aesthetic purposes," with a picture of Nurse Chapel.

"Just wanted some goddamn light bulbs but everyone ruined it," with a picture of Dr McCoy.

STAR TREK 2x15 — ‘TROUBLE WITH TRIBBLES’

[hellpmeimobsessed]

Laser Tag With The Crew Of: TOS

Bones is the medic that gets people back in the game, but is surprisingly good with a phaser to defend himself and his 'patient'.

Chekov is the second one out because he can't stop laughing and taunting the others and keeps giving away his position as a result.

Spock is the 3rd one out because he relies too much on logic and thinks Kirk won't shoot him when they 'teamed up'. He was wrong.

Sulu is fourth out; while he can hold his own, he's much better at Beat Saber or Just Dance for games, but he gets Chekov out more than once.

Kirk is the one taking it the least seriously and always pops around corners with a 'ha-ha!' or 'ha! Gotcha!' and a 'better luck next time!' When he gets someone out; runs for his actual life when he shoots Spock as a joke. Spock does not pursue and instead, after recovering from shock, rolls his eyes.

Uhura never gets caught, and in fact never gets hit, but communicates with Bones in Morse where she shot someone down so he can come pick em back up.

Scotty finds the perfect hiding spot and camps; people think their suits are malfunctioning because he camps so well.

After “I, Mudd”:

Chekov: Uhura...I get that we were acting. But did you have to slap me in the face so hard?!

Uhura: ...

Minecraft, Roblox, or Fortnite (TOS Editon)

Kirk: Roblox probably plays those weird adopt and raise a baby games or the high school ones. He occasionally plays the obstacle ones.

Spock: Minecraft on survival mode. He is slowly making his way to defeating the ender dragon.

Bones: Says he doesn’t like Minecraft but plays it in secret on creative mode.

Chekov: Minecraft on creative mode and has a server. Probably makes a lot of Russian buildings and art.

Sulu: On chekov’s server usually on survival but sometimes creative if he’s testing redstone. Really good with red stone.

Uhura: Minecraft on both creative and survival. Plays on the hunger games server thing and almost always wins.

Nurse Chapel: Plays Roblox and Fortnite but probably Roblox more. She plays the high school fairy games on Roblox. Ocassionally plays Minecraft to hang out Uhura.

Scotty: Minecraft on survival and is surprisingly really bad at redstone. Gets tips on how to use redstone from Sulu.
