My husband used to play some game in which you could in fact poke another monster-like (ogre?) character, and it would repeatedly growl "Stop poking me!" We still use this line occasionally, along with early Bart Simpson "Ow! Ka-wit it."

Of course, we also still use "Svimvear! Veddy nice." Five points to anyone who knows that reference.

"Some game"? That was Warcraft II. I think you're referring to the Orc Grunt.

The poke sequence went something like this:
Argh?
Yes?
Argh?
WHAAAAAAAAAT!
Stop poking me.
IwouldnotdosuchthingsifIwereyou.

The Alliance equivalent (Human footman) said things like "Are you still touching me?" and "Don't you have a kingdom to run?"

"But we picked up the distress call before she sent the hail."

An episode I saw once when it was first broadcast, and haven't seen since.

Oho, that scenario sounds familiar. Voyager's "Parallax"?

Sa'ar Chasm 08-24-2012 07:31 AM

Indeed. First season Voyager I actually watched.

Let's change it up a bit. There's a TOS episode where Spock remarks on "The renowned * punctuality," where * is a species. What species is it?

Mi amore goes through games pretty quickly. FPS, Civilization-type, space-based resources, they all look the same after a while. I'm sure he thinks the same thing about my various TV show crushes. :)

Nobody biting?

Tholian.

Zeke 08-26-2012 11:30 PM

Yep. When the <i>Enterprise</i> trespasses in their space, they show up and attack right on schedule.

Sa'ar Chasm 08-27-2012 05:54 PM

Never turn your back on a blank.

(Woulda got to this earlier, but I spent all yesterday on a plane)

Nate the Great 08-28-2012 01:12 AM

The "blank" is "Breen", and it's an episode of DS9, but I don't know the speaker or episode.

Sa'ar Chasm 08-28-2012 02:41 AM

Breen is correct, and we don't seem to be requiring the name of the episode or the speaker, since Zeke gave me credit for just saying Tholian. I believe you're up.

Zeke 08-28-2012 11:44 AM

Yeah, but there was only one episode with Tholians, and it was called "The Tholian Web", so I figured it went without saying. We'll let it go, though, as this one would've been hard to narrow down. (It's from "In Purgatory's Shadow" -- certainly not the first episode I think of when Breen are mentioned.)

Nate the Great 08-28-2012 12:11 PM

"I am proud of what I am. I believe in what I do. Can you say that?"

Zeke 09-07-2012 04:51 AM

Wow, that one seems to have frozen us solid. Mind narrowing it down a bit?

Nate the Great 09-07-2012 12:04 PM

A bit? TOS, a man and a woman talking about the different ways they've chosen to live their lives.

Sa'ar Chasm 09-07-2012 01:15 PM

Turnabout Intruder, crazy Whatshername who steals Kirk's body.

Nate the Great 09-07-2012 04:20 PM

Nope.

evay 09-09-2012 02:12 PM

Areel Shaw to Kirk in "Court-Martial"?

Nate the Great 09-09-2012 02:20 PM

Okay, I'll give another hint. It's said by one of the main cast to a guest star of the opposite gender.

evay 09-10-2012 10:15 AM

Okay, I Googled it, so I'm officially out for this round, but I have to say I would never have gotten that one.
