This is one of those questions that perplexes me


I have finally solved the question of where the toilet is on the starship enterprise (it is left behind the turbo life, first conduit and right again !!!)


but where on earth is the laundry room as a ship that size must start to smell after a while if they don't wash those oh so retro yellow jumpers


Can anyone help solve this mystery ?

In the Star Trek universe, post-replicator starships do not have laundry rooms, silly. They recycle dirty uniforms via the anti-matter reactor and use the energy to replicate clean ones. Every cabin has an ensuite sonic shower and loo. The crew's poo is recycled into whatever else they require, including food.


Didn?t they teach you anything at Starfleet Academy, ensign Sparticus?

Has anyone ever noticed that none of the crew of any Starfleet vessel ever went for a shit. Or even expressed the desire to go for one either.


An amazing display of sexual restraint on behalf of the entire ships compliment as well. If I had counselor Troi under my command I'd be up her like a Ferret.

"I would, but I don't want to be lectured by Whoopi Goldberg."


I wouldn't want to be lectured by her either Moos. Nor would I like to drink 'synthahol' either. I've also always wondered what engaging the warp core would feel like after choking through a spliff as thick as my thumb.

"Replicator, I'm an obscure never-seen-before member of the Enterprise crew about to be beamed down to the surface of that unexplored planet with Kirk, Spock and Bones. My chances of survival are not looking great. I would like todays uniform to be bullet, laser beam and alien proof please..."

Plus teleporting.

If you're making a new version from a recorded version using all the same atoms as the old one. Can't you just bu the poor dead red shirted fella in one end and having a living version out the other from their buffers or whatever they call them?

Very good point Mockney. Scotty appeared in an episode of Next Gen (think it was called relic), because he'd been "trapped" mid transport for x amount of years, yet materialised in good health. Surely then, they could just "save" a copy of you (which you'd update at regular intervals in order to keep memories current), then if you expired, you could be easily replaced.

It exists in the culture novels. You just back yourself up every now and then and if you die you have an identical body grown and you have your backup popped in, all you've lost are me

ories and experiences since your last backup.


Makes dramtic tension difficult when all that's at stake is the last 45 minutes of kirks wooden script delivery I suppose.

Two amazingly good questions


Number 1 (Scenario) the Borg are attacking, resistance is futile and yet not one hint of a trouser bellow is heard, or any indication of someone in the background screaming "Sod this I am off before I sh!t myself" How does that work then


Number 2 - Forget Troi ....Seven of Nine would make the crew stay up all night playing with their 'Gel Packs' or whatever



and don't get me started on inter-species procreation ... I mean do all aliens have 2 eyes, 2 legs, 2 arms and the same genitalia as us ?? Surely if they do then it indicates that there is a supreme being out there guiding the universe (and I am not talking Q) and speaking of which why do all aliens in the Delta Quadrant speak perfect American English ? I mean not one hint of a Jamican twang "yo cptn the ooomans are atacking but dis is one wicked spliff i is smoking man" I mean wouldn't that be as likely as American English....


At least I can still dream that Resistance is Futile and just submit to Seven's borg charms (Fnnnr Fnnnrr)

Good God Spartacus. Do make sure not to leave anything out.

I prefer to take my assimilated piece of science fiction arse by force thank you very much. Not succumb to their robotic suggestivity and knockers.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
