TBH, as a middle aged male, I would love to meet new friends. Even if it means joining a cult like the Borg or CrossFit.

Here's a little story 'bout a cat named Locutus.
All started when this big square ship tried to shoot us.
Next thing you know up on the main screen
pops up the fly shawty we'll call the Borg Queen.

She said surrender, we said NO!
Jordi fires up the engines to GO!
Now we're stuck in a tractor beam FLOW!
Assimilated? Find out next SHOW!

I didn't know we had a queen. I thought we were an autonomous collective

I'll always remember that summer back in 2366 when I got turned into a Borg. It was really hot that year and everyone was waiting for the rains to come. I was on the bridge that day. I looked at Mr. Riker and said...

Um, actually it should be "That's us", since Borg never refer to themselves in the singular until Hugh goes and ruins everything.

That's actually DiMA. He's looking more human these days. I guess technology growth didn't miss Acadia.

This is me, and this is a moment that set the whole date of the galaxy into motion

Picard gets stabbed through the heart

If the Borg would just ask me nicely I'd totally let myself be assimilated.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same here ... but I'm also afraid of becoming the first organism to be unassimilated by the Borg because they don't want me either.

Species 329, the Kazon, were not selected for assimilation, therefore you would not be the first.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But were they encountered in the early 21st century, or later?

[–] 7of9@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Later, but OP would have to wait until later too.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Sadly, they're unlikely to be alive at that point.

Fun fact: assimilation is a fetish

Great episodes, just watched for the first time a couple of days ago
