[color=#000000ost_uid0]3. Data, seeking a drastic change, answers an ad reading "Wanted: Saviour of Ancient Jedi Order." Unfortunately, he is told that he is just not the droid they're looking for.
2. Han Solo defects to the Romulans and devotes his life to destroying all Klingons, but especially the ones who killed Chewbacca because they thought she was a Tribble.
1. Riker discovers much to his dismay that he is Luke's father.

Next up: Top Ten Reasons Vulcans Have Pointy Ears[/colorost_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]10. The Romulans infected them with it long ago, out of revenge for kicking them off the planet. Millions died. Only the most logical Vulcans developed resistence to it so they could repopulate the planet.

9. They cut off parts of their ears because they wanted to look like elves. They didn't quite succeed.[/colorost_uid0]

Hmm... we already had DS9, in the ENT/DS9 Crossovers...

How about Top Ten Next Gen/Star Wars Wacky Crossover Episodes/Fights/Slashes?[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]Oooo, you're trying to get on my bad side, arent you! Well watch out, I'll double post you...over and over and over! :bigsmile:[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][bost_uid0]8.[/bost_uid0] All the better to hear you with, darling.
[bost_uid0]7.[/bost_uid0] An accident involving a rubberband, weapons-grade plutonium and the planet's largest gene bank.
[bost_uid0]6.[/bost_uid0] Oddly enough, archeological digs suggest that Vulcans used to have Ferengi-type ears millenia ago. Something obviously happened in between, but the Vulcans refuse to discuss it with outsiders. Rampant plastic surgery is suspected.[/colorost_uid0]

[Opium]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]5. While originally they Vulcans had Morn-type ears, plastic surgery was used to correct them, until Vulcans realized that by drinking plutonium, they could be more logical, AND change the shape of their ears.
4. Because round ones are SOOOOO human![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]These may or may not be funny (or even make sense), but it seems worth a shot...

3. Before Vulcans had cable, what do you think they used for bunny ears?

2. Since the Klingons did there "Smooth forehead" thing, Vulcans wanted to be different too.

1. In an effort to be different as well, the forebearers of the Romulans did the same thing. In retribution, the Vulcans said it wasn't cool and they kicked them off the planet.[/colorost_uid0]

Top 10 reasons that newbies should be probably be discouraged from doing Top 10 lists by themselves.[/colorost_uid0]

[Gatac]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Rolling with that...

Top 10 Reasons Newbies shouldn't write Top 10 Lists themselves

10. Explicit advice from the old-timers to read some older Top 10 lists first; insanity results.
9. Just not funny without references to John, chily or Topic Title.
8. Follow-up conversation results in the topic veering brutally off-track. Newbie left clueless and suffering from inattention.
7. Newbie's Rule of Top 10s: All the good ones have been done already.
6. Welcome hugs from 17 considered "cruel and unusual".
5. Zeke will read it. Soon.
4. If it's any good, will be PDFed. Due to increased life expectancy of list, could become stumbling point for ex-newbie's presidential election.
3. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, inflicting by many small carpals with pneumatic piledrivers.
2. May find himself *too* funny and get stuck in psychotic laughing mode until forcably rebooted. (Yes, humans have a reset switch. No, you don't want to know where.)

And the Number One reason Newbies really really shouldn't write a Top 10 List:

1. They get spoofed and played for a cheap laugh by a list like this.

Also, this is the first post from Chronos, who works like a charm. Gotta love my new black box of power.

On a completely different note, for anyone who's read Neon Exodus:Evangelion (good fanfic, by the way): Remember DJ's dachshound in Season 2? It was named Anubis, because it was the dog of an elderly Egyptian scholar. DJ adopted it, and everybody called it - yep, you guessed it - "Newbie." Just thought I'd share.

Ex-[iost_uid0]squeeze[/iost_uid0] moi, Gatac?

If you're saying that, it's pretty much obvious that you've never been, um, [iost_uid0]greeted[/iost_uid0] by the business end of my five-mile-long station here.

A situation which must now be remedied.

[bost_uid0]THWAP![/bost_uid0]

Hvala. That will be all.

Edit: Oh, since Gatac is obviously too dazed to come up with a new topic right now, here's one for you all. [bost_uid0]Top Ten Unpleasant Ways To Be Folded, Spindled And Otherwise Mutilated on the Five Minute Forums.[/bost_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think we got those last two covered already... :eyeroll:

[MaverickZer0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]7. Chat
6. Try and figure out how Trillian works
5. Resist getting an LJ for the sole purpose of annoying others

...

What?[/colorost_uid0]

[Opium]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]4. Bring up John and TopHatMan repeatedly, no matter what the context.
3. Copy and slightly change someone else's idea.
2. Study...just kidding!

Top Ten Weird Reasons You Keep Watching Various Trek Shows![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]This sounds fun to try...

Top Ten Weird Reasons You Keep Watching Various Trek Shows!

10. Despite hopes people may have had for a certain show, the only reasons you watch it anymore is to see the ship and certain main character pummelled.

9. Your sleep medication doesn't work anymore.

8. It's usually better then homework, though trying to explain to your teacher the next day that you lost your homework in Subspace only gets you laughted at by the rest of your class.

Ran out of ideas for now. I'll sure I'll think of more soon...[/colorost_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]7. Even if you don`t have an interest in DS9, you keep watching because you`re amazed by this strange new thing, "the continuity"... however, after the series finale, it never appears again.

6. You keep watching Voyager looking for the lost continuity, but it doesn`t matter because you enjoy cheering "WHEEEEEE!" every time Janeway takes out phaser rifles or slams Voyager into other ships.

(plus the show is great)

5. You keep watching TOS over and over again because you`re obsessed with silly little sounds that can be heard on the bridge. Eventually they become your only form of communication. You`re committed to a mental institution, but that turns out to be a good thing - you meet a lot of 5mv forumgoers there,

4. You, your friends, your neighbourhood and the aglomeration of 10 cities in which you live all watch Enterprise because you have organized a betting pool on how long will it take till Travis gets minimally decent amount of screentime. The betting pool weighs around $47 million. No one wins, because from late season 3 to season 7, Travis never gets a single line again...[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]But DS9 is so great![/colorost_uid0]
