The Reference Explanation Thread

[Nate the Great]

Looks more like a Star Wars reference.

I'd like to ask who came up with the word Kablazmo.

[Katy Jane]

I think he was asking about the *Gack* part

[Nate the Great]

Well, I doubt it, because around here it's "Gak" not "Gack."

[AKAArzosah]

I think Gack is just the noise you make when someone starts strangling you to death.

[Nate the Great]

Well, for all nonlethal stuff I think we use Ack.

[ijdgaf]

Sometimes I use TACK!

You know. To stick stuff to walls.

[Nate the Great]

I thought it was pfffpt. That's my best approximation of the sound Spider-Man's webbing makes when it hits a surface.

You know, I'll bet we can use this thread. I mean, I really don't think we're exactly suffering from forum clutter around here.

Nate got me reading FM "Course: Oblivion". I never read most of the VOY fivers, I now realize, because, when I first found FMV, I hadn't seen most of the series.

Anyways, what's the double entendre here?

Janeway: Janeway to all hands: turns out we're all fictional.
Neelix: Let's hear it for double entendre.

FMV? Still?

As to those names, I honestly don't know what to tell you. I imagine my thought process went something along the lines of "wow, I wonder what kind of unusual names I can get away with using here." Sorry to disappoint....

[Nate the Great]

Would people PLEASE stop using F as a replacement for five? Please?

No, it's cool. The names are, indeed, absurd. I just did too much reading into them.

Nate, thanks. That does make some sense.
