    In today's episode of wow, I learned that you should never ever die in a dungeon if you are the only character who can rez because the instance maps are fucking worthless.

    There is not an instance in wow that is not basically a straight line. Besides if you died going in, can't you retrace your steps?

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    rally the troops

    It's hopeless. They've learned from the mistakes of the past. Everything they make is flame retardant.

    It's more that all Klingons are black (especially early on in TNG) and they have a "savage warrior culture" and are often derided as less "evolved" and etc.

    A little too close to typical white supremacist ideas imo

    Were there episodes where Klingon warrior prowess was on display? Don't they regularly get defeated even in unarmed combat by Federation officers?

    hm

    so i have beef, broccoli, jalapenos, and onions

    but no clue what order to cook them in to make the most delicious beef. i'm thinking since it's all grass fed beef and has a leaner profile I should cook the broccoli first. but idk

    I don't particularly see any specific parallels between Klingons and black or African people.

    The "honor race" is a very old fantasy and sci-fi trope.

    dwarves, kzinti etc.

    TNG and DS9 had more stuff with Klingons all not being useless. Though a lot of that was Worf being bad ass.

    i would parboil the broccoli, sautee the onions, add in the jalepeños, then the beef very soon after, then the broccoli

    if you're doing this stir-fry style

    This is a symptom of the kind of writing you'd get on TV back in the day, I think

    In later episodes of TNG and in DS9, you get a better idea of Klingons as dangerous hand to hand combatants and of possessing superior strength/endurance compared to humans. I recall an episode where they talk about it being crucial not to let Klingons board because they'll tear through the place?

    In TNG Worf is just the speed bump to show a villain is dangerous; in DS9 when he gets an opening he breaks someone's neck with his bare hands.

    They were designed to be space-USSR basically in TOS. Warlike and authoritarian.

    In this episode of House MD, the irascible Doctor House has tricked Wilson into thinking he has a long lost 11 year old son, going so far as to hire an actor to play him.
