Teenage Peter Capaldi was such a rabid *Who* superfan that Barry Letts' secretary "wished Daleks would exterminate him" 🤣 (leminal.space)

TL;DR — at age 14, Peter Capaldi was so miffed that another teenager had been appointed by the BBC to run Official Doctor Who Fan Club, he ran a one man letter writing campaign to take over the post and club himself....

Taleya,

Old enough to have heard some of the scrattle in real time - some of the most annoying young fans are now the ones responsible for the best of the new series, so, yannow, suckit.

Taleya,

Solok, no contest. The others were various levels of asshat, solok was 1000% cunt

Taleya,

There’s a few instances in McCoy’s era in particular - the dude was on the ball with OH&S. More than one cast member has credited Sylvester with outright saving their life

Taleya,

Plus then it frees up rosa for odo

Taleya,

How much of a name did you make for yourself by 22?

Taleya,

The whovian in me screeches the toymaker came first, the trekker points out that while Q seems to have some peculiar moral purpose the Toymaker is just an eternal ancient who sets shit on fire for fun.

Also supernovas can harm Q IIRC. The Toymaker, not so much.

Taleya,

Cheers for snw, jeers for s31.

Taleya,

Kinda already is. The Family (capitalised) is something you generally want to avoid.

Especially in Australia, rather infamous cult

Taleya,

I miss when we used to point and laugh at these cunce

Taleya,

Why was this even being challenged. What kind of dumb motherfuckers are putting personal shit on work equipment

Taleya,

Novell 4 lyfe

Taleya,

May your fingers turn to fish hooks and you get crotch-itch.

Taleya,

Ambassador as a passenger

Taleya,

Jeff Waynes is the closest thus far.

Taleya,

In no particular order:

  • i’m the X
  • status report
  • keep us connected
  • I’m ready
  • status report
Taleya,

I’ve seen that as well, it’s slowly growing. Unsurprisingly the correlation of ren faire goers and trekkers is high.

Taleya,

Unfortunately the internet hellishly complements our copycat tendencies

Taleya,

Eh class

Taleya,

…considering the term is nearly sixty years old i’d say no.

Edit: exposing myself as an olde farte but in fandom circles back in the day there was a sharp line between trekker and trekkie . Oooh you didn’t want to be seen as a trekkie, they were the fans that …well looking back at it, the trekkies were openly obsessed over the series and had all the fun cosplaying and being free about it, the trekkers were the ones that pretended they weren’t mad about trek and thus were allowed out into respectable society. Cringe factor i suppose. Heh. But old name habits remain.

Taleya, (edited )

It’s also an age thing - I mean every fandom has Those Fans, but in general being a fan of something and buying / wearing merch is now nbd. Nerd’s gone mainstream.

Back when those terms were coined? Sooo not the case. Like, it could literally get you beaten. Wild times.

Taleya,

Ol’ gene knew the cost of rubber in the 60’s

Taleya,

True matriarch of Duras.

Taleya,

Yeah but by '87 the writing was definitely on the wall for the USSR

Taleya,

'Tis a pune

Taleya,

Because classic trek - for all its reaching for the stars and left leanings - is still very much rooted in and reflects the US postwar mindset. We are the good guys! The best guys! We do no wrong! Which is a trough that right wingers like to feed at.

Taleya,

And then after they’ve made a complete hash of it, usually messing it up beyond belief…demand you fix it.

Taleya,

Universal remote. I did that up for my husband’s grandma ‘just press this button and your show comes on’

Taleya,

4 was wonderfully savage

Taleya,

Scherzo meets Terminus!

Taleya,

When the jamaharon hits juuuust right

Taleya,

Someone didn’t watch past ep 3

Taleya,

Literally the case, the first couple eps were written for fartjock executives. Ep 4 onwards were written for the show. It’s why there’s a sudden stratospheric upswing

Taleya,

Thing is it’s not the humour, it’s the humanity. Showing all the crew are just as dorky as your average human today, not all stick-wedged paragons like TNG. Think of the top time funniest moments - getting Bortus to eat a cactus, 500 cigarettes, karaoke, the moustache, the dancing bandito, isaac’s joke fail… the humour is there, but it’s the humanity that makes them. that’s where s3 kinda fell down a bit, i don’t know if it was covid rush or what, but we missed a lot of the warmer moments. Season finale delivered though.

Taleya,

Talkydoor?

Taleya,

BWAMP BWAMP

Taleya,

What is this, some deep space franchise??

Taleya,

Dude. they ain’t morals if the only thing stopping me is consequence

Taleya,

Ehhhh, Consequentialism judges the morality of an action by its consequence. I’m simply not stealing shit because the inconvenience of hassle.

Taleya,

Meanwhile they also bitch about gender neutral terms. While speaking a gender neutral language

Taleya,

🍇 😡

Taleya,

That’s why bakers are so chill. You learn the hard way that nothing matters and you have so very little control over the universe. Consequently you deal or go mad.

Taleya,

God, the planets inspired pretty much every goddamn sci fi soundtrack. Everyone gets the imperial march, but i’m talking right back before even Haskin’s War of the Worlds and Journey to the centre of the earth, past SW and wrath of khan and into Foundation.

Taleya,

What about the buffalo though

Taleya,

Quit ya bitching and roll the math.

Some stand to pee. Some sit to pee. everyone sits to shit. In a mixed gender household the seat gets most use down.

Taleya,

I love that mashup, such a banger

Taleya,

Bound by their mutual wigmaker

Taleya,

well it’s not an inherited illness but yeah, the whole thing was “a human brain can’t handle that much dumped into it” which is why she had to forget. Processor overload.

Taleya,

So many elements across all 60 years of themes.
