What's Worse?

[Aquarius]

You all may have played a variation of this game before. You're faced with two pretty nasty choices; you pick the one you think is worst, and then offer up two more choices for the next person to pick from.

Just for giggles we can keep this Trek-themed to begin with, but if we start running out of ideas, then we can start using general choices.

I'll start:

Salty plomeek broth, or finding a scabby bandaid in your gagh?

[Eian Flannagan]

I doubt salty plomeek broth constitutes a health hazard, so I'll say the scabby band-aid is worse. MUCH worse.


Phlox curing your ailment with Regulan bloodworms or by creating a mimetic simbiot?

[Asso]

There are so many strange things in medicine that I'm not scared of Regulan bloodworms. Instead I wouldn't be glad if a mimetic simbiot would reveal some of my personal thoughts.

Going alone for an away mission or looking together with Archer at an endless water polo game?

[Bookworm]

Going alone for an away mission or looking together with Archer at an endless water polo game?

I don't know if these would be really horrible choises if you think about it. At least if you are a woman.
Looking at atheletic men in swiming trunks. Or spending some time alone when you are coopped up in a ship with so many people so many months.

But as an introvert and a bit claustrophobic person I'd pobably choose that the endless water polo game would be worse as I would have to share it with Archer.


What would be worse for you freeze in a shutlepod or boil in a desert?

[Asso]

I think it's better freeze's torpor than heat's dehydration.

Having one only bad book to read, or having one bad movie to look at?

[JadziaKathryn]

Definitely the movie.

Okay, next: "The Seventh" or "A Night in Sickbay"?

[Eian Flannagan]

Okay, next: "The Seventh" or "A Night in Sickbay"?

Oh, for the love of everything that lives, it has to be A Night in Sickbay. This question feels more like "What's Grosser Than Gross?" The only thing worse than Archer & T'Pol is a half-naked Archer obsessing over his beagle.

Trip and Feezel hookin' up or T'Pol and Phlox hookin' up (ie Bounty)?

[Lady Rainbow]

T'Pol and Phlox together just makes me shudder.

Okay...(for gals) waking up next to Phlox or waking up next to Shran?
(for guys) waking up next to Feezal or waking up next to Talas?

[Alelou]

Okay, next: "The Seventh" or "A Night in Sickbay"?

Trip and Feezel hookin' up or T'Pol and Phlox hookin' up (ie Bounty)?

Interrupting to remark that the only thing I really like about A Night in Sickbay is the deleted scene with Trip and Archer. 1) We get to see Trip in his undies, 2) We get to see Trip trying, sleepily, to 'manage' his boss, and 3) When Archer asks him how long it's been, Trip responds with a wonderfully nonplussed, "Sir?"
Okay, back to your regularly scheduled programming.

[Aquarius]

T'Pol and Phlox together just makes me shudder.

Okay...(for gals) waking up next to Phlox or waking up next to Shran?
(for guys) waking up next to Feezal or waking up next to Talas?

Ouch! I think I'm gonna go with waking up next to Phlox for this one, though it was a tough choice.


Finding out you have a tribble infestation, or running from a pissed off gorn?

[leslina]

Finding out you have a tribble infestation, or running from a pissed off gorn?

::rings buzzer:: I'll take the Tribble Infestation Alex!

Because I'm in a wicked, wicked mood today and it does adhere to the general theme of uncomfortableness; Ladies, pelvic exam by Phlox or Antaak. Gentlemen prostate exam by Phlox or Antaak. (Re: Divergence)

[Aquarius]

Allow me to interject:


EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

[Asso]

Allow me to interject:


EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

I add myself.
EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

[leslina]

Allow me to interject:


EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

I add myself.
EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

Success. ^_^

[Alelou]

I had to go look up Antaak. Don't these people know that all Klingons are supposed to have names that sound like Klang or Koloth?

Definitely Phlox. He doesn't worry me. The degree of privacy available in that sickbay might worry me, though. Couldn't they have given the guy an office with walls???

Q: If one of those wispy things that took Trip off to ride with Hopalong Cassidy took you off, what would YOU be doing?
