Holy shit, is our current reality just a holodeck program on the Enterpise? That would explain Patrick Stewart existing here.
Computer, end program!
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD COMPUTER END FUCKING PROGRAM!
We didn’t find anything. Did you mean to search for:
“FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, HEY GOOGLE, END FUCKING PROGRAM!”?
God damn search…. COMPUTER. For the last time, the program has broken parameters, END PROGRAM!
Terminate program named CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world
Please confirm: (y/n/T)
Oh finally, yes please! Termin…… WAIT!
This meme hit me in the feels the most, it’s the last panel of him gripping his flute, clinging to the last remaining piece of all he’s lost.
I debated adding it. With just the first 3 panels, the tone ends sort of funny, but I like the feels.
It really ties the meme together.
Edit: cleaned up a bit
I love it
I just watched this episode for the first time last night. Absolutely depressing.
The jokes are always about Worf getting beaten up or O’Brien suffering (primarily ds9), but Picard gets put through some psychologically torturous stuff.
And physically. Don’t forget physically tortured.
Yeah I dunno, how many lights do you see?
I appreciated this small tribute that showed up on my Roku idle screen tonight.
Let me guess, society was facing a global heat catastrophe, and you had to just watch the corruption and secrecy in government just ruin the planet?
I’ve never heard of such a scenario. \s
“You pooled your resources to accomplish something that no other group I know of has been able to? How fucking dare you, I’m not telling anyone about the crazy radical ideas you’ve got going on here.”
☹️
No one had jobs compared to TNGs post scarcity society.
Picard would have been horrified at the world Patrick Stewart commanded. Even Patrick Stewart knew this and provided that gravity.
That being said this episode is an amazing revelation of a show.
That final shot of Picard grasping the flute in a way that know one will ever know for reasons only a lifetime could give.
In that story Picard becomes an artist without knowing….
A whole world, an entire lifetime… All he can do is play those notes… all we can hope to understand are HIS notes. After a lifetime all he has is his own empty room alone and those notes.
This is my favourite episode.
