My husband used to play some game in which you could in fact poke another monster-like (ogre?) character, and it would repeatedly growl "Stop poking me!" We still use this line occasionally, along with early Bart Simpson "Ow! Ka-wit it."

Of course, we also still use "Svimvear! Veddy nice." Five points to anyone who knows that reference.

"Some game"? That was Warcraft II. I think you're referring to the Orc Grunt.

The poke sequence went something like this:
Argh?
Yes?
Argh?
WHAAAAAAAAAT!
Stop poking me.

The Alliance equivalent (Human footman) said things like "Are you still touching me?" and "Don't you have a kingdom to run?"

An episode I saw once when it was first broadcast, and haven't seen since.

Oho, that scenario sounds familiar. Voyager's "Parallax"?

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Indeed. First season Voyager I actually watched.

Let's change it up a bit. There's a TOS episode where Spock remarks on "The renowned * punctuality," where * is a species. What species is it?

Mi amore goes through games pretty quickly. FPS, Civilization-type, space-based resources, they all look the same after a while. I'm sure he thinks the same thing about my various TV show crushes.

Yeah! That was it!

Nobody biting?

Tholian.

[Zeke]

Yep. When the Enterprise trespasses in their space, they show up and attack right on schedule.

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Never turn your back on a blank.

(Woulda got to this earlier, but I spent all yesterday on a plane)

[Nate the Great]

The "blank" is "Breen", and it's an episode of DS9, but I don't know the speaker or episode.

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Breen is correct, and we don't seem to be requiring the name of the episode or the speaker, since Zeke gave me credit for just saying Tholian. I believe you're up.

[Zeke]

Yeah, but there was only one episode with Tholians, and it was called "The Tholian Web", so I figured it went without saying. We'll let it go, though, as this one would've been hard to narrow down. (It's from "In Purgatory's Shadow" -- certainly not the first episode I think of when Breen are mentioned.)

[Nate the Great]

"I am proud of what I am. I believe in what I do. Can you say that?"

[Zeke]

Wow, that one seems to have frozen us solid. Mind narrowing it down a bit?

[Nate the Great]

A bit? TOS, a man and a woman talking about the different ways they've chosen to live their lives.

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Turnabout Intruder, crazy Whatshername who steals Kirk's body.

[Nate the Great]

Nope.

[evay]

Areel Shaw to Kirk in "Court-Martial"?

[Nate the Great]

Okay, I'll give another hint. It's said by one of the main cast to a guest star of the opposite gender.

[evay]

Okay, I Googled it, so I'm officially out for this round, but I have to say I would never have gotten that one.
