Some are wondering how to celebrate National Star Trek Day. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Resist the “credit” system and pay for everything with gold-pressed Latinum.
2. Cuddle a Tribble.
3. Spray paint “He’s dead, Jim!” on local gravestones.
4. Throw an impromptu Kolinahr party, invite some Ferengi, then turn it into a surprise Marxism discussion group and see what happens.
5. Serve
Ga’ak with white or rosé Blood Wine. If anyone complains, remind them that
red Blood Wine is best served with
Targ.
6. Tell your boss you can’t come to work because you have a pinched nerve in your neck after attending a Pon Farr ceremony.
7. Shop Amazon for a pink Dilithium Crystal mood lamp.
8. Ask Apple support if they can change the power cell on your old Tricorder 12.
9. Toss raw popcorn into the primary warp core conduit and run.
10. Go deep into the largest cave you can find and yell, “KHAAAAAN!”
11. Order a
raktajino at Starbucks; video-record the reactions.
12. Write a quickie treatise on the validity of the Fundamental Declarations of the Martian Colonies as a combination of Marxism, Grange Populism, and Objectivist-Libertarianism. Submit it to the Vulcan Academy.
13. Take The Prime Directive to the extreme: the micro-ecosystems living on your skin are unaware of your existence—don't shower or bathe.
14. Bring a long chrome dildo to your job interview at the United Earth Space Probe Agency.
15. Smugly inform reparations grifters that 2038's U.N. Resolution 51 will determine that no citizen of United Earth could be held liable for the acts of their ancestors.
16. Silently fart in a crowded turbolift; giggle and say, “Wow. It smells like a Klingon breath-mint in here.”
17. Ask your bartender to make you a Sonic Screwdriver with fresh-squeezed
zlim’kach, not concentrate.
Please do add any other suggestions you can think of, and always remember that Star Trek is closer than you think even if you don't notice it.
