William Shatner's TEKWAR
FandyienBut Otto, what about us? Registered Userregular
In the year 2120, Jake Cardigan is a disgraced ex-cop framed for dealing drugs. Tough as nails and innocent, Jake Cardigan admits he was a user but maintains he was a good cop - and now, he's been released early. The book finds our hero covered in poop on a space station, divorced by his wife, and mysteriously unfrozen eleven years early...BUT WHY?
WHAT will Jake Cardigan do now? WHERE will he go? WILL he ever see his wife and son again? WAS he truly innocent?
ONLY WILLIAM SHATNER CAN TELL US, AND ONLY BY USING AWESOME WORDS HE MAKES UP.

One time, I had a friend over to play a bit of Red Alert on my LAN. During the game he said he needed to go to the bathroom, so we paused it. After about 10 minutes of wondering where the hell he went, I get up and go to check on him.
Once I was taking a poop at a restaurant and a kid crept underneath the door into my stall. I let out a big fart and then he threw up all over the floor in front of me and I just stared at him.
I owned and read a couple of these back when they first came out. I have no idea where they are now, probably burried in with other novels that I haven't seen in over a decade.
I enjoyed the first couple, but vaguely recall them getting sillier and eventually just stopped looking for them. Could probably figure out where I left off in the series from a wiki search, but now I'm kind of tempted to hunt through those boxes tonight and see if I still have them, or if they ended up being given away or sold during a pre-moving purge.

1. That sounds way better than BankAmericard.
2. He's only off by two letters.
3. This would be awesome, but we run the risk of creating Daleks:
Fuck, I actually owned that game. I think it even had a picture of Bill Shatner on the box. I asked for Duke Nukem 3D but my parents got me this piece of shit because it was cheaper.

A friend got me the first issue of it for Secret Santas last year and I honestly legitimately enjoyed it

It's either plastic or glass.
Fuck you William Shatner.
Your opinion cuts me.

Yes, I believe it was a syndicated series that eventually found it's way to USA Network on cable. Was cool to watch but didn't last long.
E: read about half the books, as well. May try to finish the series if I had the extra time to do so.

I remember liking it as a guilty pleasure when I was like 12
When a 12 year old knows your show is trash that is not a good sign.
