Fortunately, Zeke messages me on Facebook to tell me "LOG IN YOU OLD POPSICLE!"
See, I thought NAHTMMM got the kill credit on this one, and all I did was get the +250 for the assist. But clearly I've been playing too much Tribes:Ascend, which is now free-to-play on Steam. Ah! For some reason, this fiver made me laugh harder than any other fiver line ever, back when I was twelve or whatever. "You call that a tricorder?" "Put the spoon away"

Is that TNG's "First Contact," the episode?

If so, then it was a reference. Unless I'm way off, that joke originated not in a fiver at all, but in Paneldemonium.

Paneldemonium not technically a fiver? Because, yes -- that particular line is from Part 2.

I sort of assumed it was just fivers, but you have a point. There's lots of memorable content in other areas of the site. Let's broaden the thread's scope, then.
For instance (since it's my turn now), in Minutemen Part 1, I had a gag about the Guardian of Forever having waited SINCE BEFORE YOUR SUN BURNED HOT IN SPACE for its two guest fivers to be published. That was a followup joke -- the Guardian had mentioned these guest fivers before. Anyone remember where?

I didn't recall there being two instances of that joke, but I think the other is probably in a TJI. I definitely think the Guardian has cameoed in one of those.

Yes, it was a TJI. It would be silly to ask for the issue number or headline, so to count as a win, can you say what that one was about?
