First off, the new design looks quite spiffy. I was wondering how you were going to cram two new subsites onto that front page.

How about Five-Minute Star?
Five Minute Sa'ar. All Sa'ar, all the time.

What?

Marc's comment about delayed action punchlines, which is beyond the limit of the little thread-quoty window.
This explains much. That punchline at the end of Duet had me baffled until I read...well, actually it had me baffled until Marc explained it personally. Then I got back to a computer and actually read it.

Kira: Oooh, you naughty boy. Let me take off my jacket and come a little closer so you can frisk me.
Guard: Wow...what a knock-out!
(WHACK!)
I don't know why people keep hiring guards from the shallow end of the gene pool...although some of them seem to have limited precognitive powers.

Sisko: Welcome back, Major. Listen to this.
Dukat: (on viewscreen) As I was saying, we were shocked by your discovery that that Bajorans were being held in such appalling conditions by a rogue Cardassian prefect.
Kira: Shocked by their illegal detention or shocked that we found out about it?
Dukat: Major, please don't get sarcastic with me while I'm in the middle of scapegoating a junior officer.
Somehow I managed to completely miss this scene during the first read-through. In my defense, it was 1AM at the time (not 7:57).

Quote:
Odo: Interesting choice of words. You wouldn't happen to be a Circle sympathizer, would you?
Quark: Pfft. At least my name doesn't have a suspiciously high O-to-consonant ratio, like some people I could mention.
I'm constantly amazed at the mileage you people get out of one joke.

Quote:
Marc: You couldn't be more wrong. Birds are deadly.

Derek: You're only saying that because they see bald people's heads as bullseyes.
*wince* That was low.

*bites tongue*

Quote:
Marc: (calling after Zeke) Say hi to Cassini-Huygens for me!
*distant clang*
Marc: NASA's not gonna like that.

Quote:
Derek: Space. Hmm. What about huge space battles?

Kira: Yeah, it's not like somebody's subsite has that market cornered.

Derek: Okay. Religious issues?

Marc: Amen. I mean, ahem.

Derek: Fine -- political intrigue?

IJD: I think I'm detecting a pattern here.
You could do it about jail-related episodes and make it a penal discussion.

...I think I need to go five something while I'm in the right frame of mind.

Quote:
IJD: Don't forget "For the Turkey is Hollow, and I Have Burnt the Stuffing."
This amuses me greatly.

Quote:
Data: Worf, I have a personal question.
Worf: Data, the answer is no. Par'mach is not for androids.
But I thought he was fully fun...never mind. My brain just rebelled.

Next! More! I demand more!
