Trekkies?
I'm just curious.
I'm a Trekkie (or "Trekker," if you please). Either way, I love Star Trek. Either way, I know a couple people who are goth and Trekkies at the same time, so I'm wondering if there are any here. Besides me, of course.

I used to watch Star Trek off and on. It never managed to keep my attention for any particular series (Well, TNG managed to keep me occupied for a while, but then I got bored), but certainly was a kick-ass set of shows.

Aah, the aged hawtness that is Patrick Stewart... what a handsome voice he has...
Yeah, I'm one of those aforementioned "Trekker-goths"... and geeks are some of the hawt-est people alive, because they don't realize they are.
Mmm... sci-fi-conventions...

I believe I'd also fall into that catagory. TNG was great show.

Great, I've always wanted John de Lancie staring at me through the window...
Why can't it be Seven?

Hrm.. Original was a classic... TNG ruled... DS9 failed to get my attention... voyager was good... enterprise sucked. It saddens me that Paramount said they will NEVER do another star-trek series....

I'm kind of glad, actually. Since seeing Enterprise, I've started worrying that the next one could be worse.

If your humor can take it, I recommend watching Star Wreck. It's free and amateur-made, but extremely awesome-looking parody of Star Trek, made by many loyal Finnish Star Trek fans. I guarantee you'll laugh.

That was AWESOME! And yeah, I did laugh, loved the part where the Plingon gave the Romulan Bird of Prey a fender bender ("damn!") and Mr. Fukov. It was kind of Atari-ish, but better. Thanks for posting it Child_of_Fury. And congratulations on reaching "Goth as Fuck".

star trek rules! I grew up on TNG, but thease days I find myself more drawn to the original, with its well quaffed hair, hot space babes, and oh so predictable red shirt deaths.

You're all going to hate to hear this...
I was never interested in the series. I thought they were all boring and fairly trite, to be honest, and lacked any sense of epicness that drew me to the other side of the spectrum that Trekkies dread...
That's right. I'm a Star Warsian.
Force > Federation, Twi'leks > Klingons, Lightsabers > Phasers.
Sorry...!

Oh, really...?
