A lot of you Trekkies are just whining brats! | Report this post to moderator
By: The TREKMAN!!!!! (Odo's file, contact) @ 16:15:48 on Aug 15, 2003

When I was really young, I was a brat. Everywhere I went, I yelled, "I want this! I want that!" and when I didn't get want I wanted, I would whine and cry. And do you know what my perents said to me? They said, "Be gratful of what you have."

A lot of Trekkies are brats. All they do is yell, "I want this on Enterprise! I wan that on Nemesis!" and when you don't like what you see on Enterprise, you cry and whine. And all I have to say is, "Be gratful of what you have."

I am gratful that I've experenced 17 years of of my 18-year life of non-stop Star Trek and I personally don't want that to stop.

Enterprise is like a jigsaw puzzle. Since it's a prequal, you know the complete picture before you even start it. Now, Enterprise is like one of those 5000 or 10000 piece puzzles. Each piece individually, don't really reflect the finished picture since the picture is very extravagant and complex. With each piece, you asked yourself, "How does this go with the finish picture?" But piece by piece (or episode by episode and season by season), you will finally see the finished picture from the pieces. Now like any other puzzle, you don't start in one corner and then spread out from there, no. You have different parts of the puzzle as you go. Some parts of the puzzle may deal with the forming of the Federation, some parts may deal with the Romulan Wars, some parts deal with other stuff. But in the beginning of that part, you don't know what it will become. You just have to continue. Don't forget, Enterprise is a prequel and the main question for all prequels is how do they get from A to B. We know what B is and we know what A is, but we need to know how A gets to B. The more seasons, the most chances we get to know how they travel from A to B. Of course we're frustrated in the beginning, we're always frustrated when we start a really hard jigsaw puzzle, and there are a lot of you would give up in the beginning because you don't want it to make sense now.

The puzzle that some of you want Enterprise to be is one of those puzzles where it's all just one color. Where every piece looks like the final picture.

To me, this is a boring way to do a puzzle. I like the complexity of the first puzzle because I like to wonder how these pieces make up the final picture just like I like to wonder how these episodes make up the final picture of the Star Trek Universe. Enough with talking about how they don't fit. They all do, you just have to THINK hard enough. That's something that a lot of you fail to do. Yes, there are some episodes where I try to Think how they fit but failed. It's just like those pieces where you have no idea how it fits into the puzzle. All you need to do is to find the pieces that do go with the unknown piece and you'll eventually find how that piece fits. Just like we need more episodes and more seasons to explain some past episodes we don't understand. We can't just give up in the beginning of the show, No! We must continue "straight and steady" throughout the episodes and season to see the big picture of the Star Trek Universe in Enterprise.

Now I know that a lot of you are these whining Trekkie brats. I'm not going to name names, but there is one in particular who always, scornfully bash Enteprise and it's supporters left and right. What is your problem? Sit down, shut up and watch the show! And that goes with all of you ingratful, whinning brats. You guys complain to every little thing about Enterprise. You guys complain that the NX-01 looks to advanced for pre-TOS, but I bet that if the NX-01 did look more like TOS you guys would still complain not becuase it looks advance, but it looks too much like TOS, someting stupid like that. Give them a break!

To all the whinning Trekkie brats:
Grow up!
