Enterprise Week lives! Here's Five-Minute "Proving Ground (../enterprise/provingground.html)," in which my Season 1 habit of introducing my own subplots really starts to reassert itself....[/color:post_uid0]

[Scooter]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]YAY! The return of the terrifying Aibo -- Latin humor -- and a Dr Who reference! Wheee!

[quote:post_uid0]Dolim: (over the comm) Test the weapon NOW! NOW! NO--
Degra: All right already. Keep your pants on.
Degra's First Officer: Sir! There's a ship approaching!
Degra: Shoot. Halt the weapon test and tell Dolim he can take his pants off after all.

Shran: Greetings! I'm from the Andorian National Kremlin of Lodestone Extracters.
Degra: (over the comm) You're the man from A.N.K.L.E.?

hahahahahahaha :D



ETA: Is there going to be a YOINK in every fiver now? :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Reed: Hey, someone just pulled us out of the field with a tractor beam. Why isn't my counter-tractor-beam beam working?
[b:post_uid0][ ... ][/b:post_uid0]
Shran: To answer your question, we have a counter-counter-tractor-beam-beam beam. [/quote:post_uid0]Were you watching [i:post_uid0]Get Smart[/i:post_uid0] before you wrote this? :lol:
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: What's with the box of safety scissors?
T'Pol: They're for the Andorians. Surely we aren't letting them use real tools.
Archer: These are all left-handed.
T'Pol: Andorians are sinister. [/quote:post_uid0]Heheheh.

[quote:post_uid0]Talas: It's too bad I'm not staying longer. I could really improve the efficiency of your phase cannons.
Reed: With your amazing engineer's touch?
Talas: You'd better believe it. I could get those phase cannons pumping out so much energy they'd --
Phlox: (over the comm) Stop it! STOP IT! I didn't set you two up. You're not allowed to have sexual tension!
Reed: Didn't I rig your communicator to explode?
Phlox: I switched it with Mr. Mayweather's. [/quote:post_uid0]Hee hee hee.

Threatened antenna stapling. Travis 'n' Hoshi subplot. Angstroms and more. Five stars. Joe Bob says check it out. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

Heh. I like these sort of jokes.
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: These are all left-handed.
T'Pol: Andorians are sinister.[/quote:post_uid0]
Heh. I like these sort of jokes too.
[quote:post_uid0]Reed: No! Don't go. Just because I resent your interference doesn't mean I don't think you're hot.
Talas: All right, I'll stay. But treat me with respect.
Reed: Sure, baby, whatever you say.[/quote:post_uid0]
Nice one!
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: There's only one way to find out for sure. How good an actor are you?
Shran: You have [i:post_uid0]no[/i:post_uid0] idea.[/quote:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: I've got it -- we'll steal it!
Shran: Why do you need to steal it if you've got it?[/quote:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: I've been trying to remember what you use to repel vampires. It's Gralik! I'll have Chef put some in tonight's dinner.
T'Pol: I don't think I'll come to dinner tonight.[/quote:post_uid0]
[quote:post_uid0]T'Pol: I wasn't finished. "O bear up in the tree so high / why must you spit into the sky? / The eagles cry, 'Oh me, oh my!' / Three point one four one six is pi."[/quote:post_uid0]
Does a Vulcan Bear spit in the woods? :laugh:

That was really really hilarious! Great work, Zeke.[/color:post_uid0]

[stripysox]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I think best fiver yet! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Wade, The Sane Commodore]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Shran: Do you have a problem, pinkskin?
Archer: WE'RE NOT ALL FREAKIN' PINK!
[/quote:post_uid0]

Mayweather should have been the one to say this. Wait a minute, give Mayweather lines? No! Perish the thought! Great fiver. By the defination of week, I hope 'Enterprise Week' will yield four more new fivers.[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Were you watching Get Smart before you wrote this?[/quote:post_uid0]

I was thinking of Rocky and Bullwinkle with the anti-anti-missile-missile missile.

Hilarious, Zeke. It's banished all the lingering memories from Shrek 2 last night. Definitely worth a reread when I've forgotten all the jokes.[/color:post_uid0]

[Hotaru]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Mayweather: No more awkwardness about Phlox's stupid amnesia gas.[/quote:post_uid0]

Am I missing something here? shouldn't that be aphrodisiac? I'm confused. Oh well, it was really good! Good job, Zeke![/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That could work, too. They were writing from the same side of the brain.[/color:post_uid0]

[Marc]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Tucker: It would really help if we could borrow some of your advanced technology. For example, I hear you have a de-angster.
Shran: Indeed we do! It has a capacity of 400 angstroms.[/quote:post_uid0]

The probable winner of the pun-of-the-week award, unless Zeke has an even more outrageous one in the pipeline.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yes. Also, the blurb refers to "Travis and Mayweather." I've fixed both on the Trek Nation copy, and I'll fix them on the 5MV copy when I get home.[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]good choice, Marc.

Wait. I found another one. Unforgivable pun of the fiver...
[quote:post_uid0]Shran: Arrrgh. How hard can it be to find a human in a -- hey! Stack those on my desk.[/quote:post_uid0]

for shame. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[Zeke]

[quote:post_uid0="Wade, The Sane Commodore"][color=#000000:post_uid0]By the definition of week, I hope 'Enterprise Week' will yield four more new fivers.[/color:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Actually, I'm not sure [i:post_uid0]what[/i:post_uid0] the skrell ENT Week is going to yield now. I'm thinking I may try to continue it until I'm out of episodes (saving "Zero Hour" for last, of course). That would be another nine days, I think.

If I do that, I'll change the name to Enterprise "Week."[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I think that's a great idea, Zeke. 9 more? You can do it!

Sab[/color:post_uid0]

[Michiel]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, I think you shouldn't start rushing it now. Pretty much all of your fivers are great. Wouldn't want to gain speed at the cost of quality. :)[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]That would be another nine days, I think.[/quote:post_uid0]

But, Michiel, in Zeke time nine days won't take away from quality. ;) The quality will be there...speed won't... :)

Sab, running off.[/color:post_uid0]

[Michiel]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yes, yes. As long as he finishes them soon.

...[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]:lol: True. :D[/color:post_uid0]

Does that mean that we won't be seeing any season 2 fivers?[/color:post_uid0]

[Zeke]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That's been answered in this thread (http://www.fiveminute.net/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=161). Happy belated birthday, btw.[/color:post_uid0]

[NeoMatrix]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Awesome fiver!

Don't you love my new icon? :)[/color:post_uid0]

[Gatac]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Re: The May 25th links.

Why did I bother telling cat when they winded their way to you anyway, Zeke? :)

Gatac[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hehe - no we have a new definition to add to the list. "Week" now means anywhere between seven and fourteen days.

We should start a "Zeke-to-English" dictionary. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]LOL
The Zekese Dictionary! ;)

Sab[/color:post_uid0]

[Wade, The Sane Commodore]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Behold the Commodore's Mystical Index of Words and their Meanings.

Zeke: week

Earther: A number of days determined by taking the derivative of number of outstanding unfived shows multiplied by pie.


Zeke: soon

Earther: A period of time ranging between one and two planting and harvesting seasons.


Zeke: GAK!

Earther: The act of death, a condition a character may recover from, depending on their popularity.


Zeke: skrell

Earther: Profanity dressed down to a peachy G rating. These 'profanity placeholders' are not allowed in the United States.


Please, feel free to add to the list. If you want me to add it to my list I'll be hiding from Zeke behind my Enterprise avatar.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hey, Wade, what's that on your icon?[/color:post_uid0]

[Wade, The Sane Commodore]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]USS Enterprise CVN-65. She'd be easier to see if we didn't suffer from pixel confinement...[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Pfft. It's not a patch on this -

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Testing new "non-squashed" avatar from PointyHairedJedi... hope i did this right!

You have a real thing about avatars dont you?! :lol: ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Umm...no, no, not at all.

Really.



Honestly.

[Alexia]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]aha! second time lucky :D Thank you![/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Actually, come to think of it, sweetclover's avatar is pretty squashed too...

*[i:post_uid0]Walks away, plotting[/i:post_uid0]*[/color:post_uid0]

[Alexia]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well mine is fixed now...one more converted! I dont get yours though. why are you some kind of cat...with glasses?[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It's a character from a comic strip called Dilbert. The offical site is here (http://www.dilbert.com) - there's a bunch of strips you can read.

Catbert, by the way, is the evil, sadistic, manipulative boss of Human Resources. I'm beginning to wonder if it wouldn't suit our other cat more though...[/color:post_uid0]

[Alexia]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Not sure, but i THINK that might possibly be the wrong link! Did you mean it to be a link to a pic of Kes?!?!?! :lol:[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'm sure I don't know what you mean. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, it's not like I'd give it to you anyway!

;)[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]No, but it was worth a shot. Works better than bribery at any rate (well, at least with the police).[/color:post_uid0]
