did they ever discuss Klingon sexual practices? I'm just going to guess there's bondage involved.

yeah, worf beats this klingon chick and someone asks them if klingons consider that foreplay, and he's all "this IS sex!"

How did I seriously never notice that? Does anybody sit like that in real life? Is Jonathan Frakes an acting genius or just lucky?
― carl agatha, Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:13 (thirteen years ago)
Or does it just come naturally to 6'4" people?

Some days you get the bear, and some days the bear gets you. I'm afraid I still don't understand, sir. I've had twelve years to think about it. And if I had it to do over again, I would have grabbed the phaser and pointed it at you instead of them. They were just sucked into space. That might've been one of the shortest assignments in the history of Starfleet. You're going to be an interesting companion, Mr. Data. Well, that's certainly good to know. You enjoyed that. Fear is the true enemy, the only enemy. The Federation's gone; the Borg is everywhere! Worf, It's better than music. It's jazz. I suggest you drop it, Mr. Data. Some days you get the bear, and some days the bear gets you. Maybe if we felt any human loss as keenly as we feel one of those close to us, human history would be far less bloody.
lol.
regarding riker's style of sitting down, I'm fairly certain that this was a conscious decision on Frakes' part and that he is, therefore, an acting genius.
― herr doktor (askance johnson), Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:25 (thirteen years ago)
Sitting down in a way that displays your crotch to the entire room. That's so Riker.
― carl agatha, Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:28 (thirteen years ago)
it's because he's cocky
― herr doktor (askance johnson), Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:29 (thirteen years ago)
The second scene, where he gets off the chair in the same way - *that's* genius.
― Elvis was a hero to most but he never her (ledge), Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:31 (thirteen years ago)
I think it's a combination of being tall, having to stay in shot, and also Riker just wanting to appear awesome.
― Camp Macaroni Style (snoball), Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:56 (thirteen years ago)
it's hilarious that nobody ever says anything about it -- you'd think picard would be like, "what the fuck are you doing #1, sit down like a normal humanoid"
― herr doktor (askance johnson), Thursday, 9 May 2013 15:58 (thirteen years ago)
Ha, yes, the one scene where Riker cock flashes Ten Forward and then Picard sits down without airing out his junk is probably my favorite.
About halfway through the video I started thinking, "Is that how men sit in chairs and I've just never noticed it?"
― carl agatha, Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:02 (thirteen years ago)
Oh wait it's not Picard. It's some other bald Starfleet officer.
― carl agatha, Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:09 (thirteen years ago)
I think that's the dude from LOST not Picard with the demure sitting.
― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:09 (thirteen years ago)
Yeah I got it.
― carl agatha, Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:15 (thirteen years ago)
it's too bad no one else sits like that because it would be hilarious to see a sequence in Starfleet officer training where they are showing dudes the correct way to swing their leg over a chair
― far too much asshole flesh (DJP), Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:17 (thirteen years ago)
That should be why Wesley and Picard fail academy entrance exams the first time and their secret bond of shame.
― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 9 May 2013 16:21 (thirteen years ago)
According to a comment I stumbled across:
This was on reddit yesterday and Wil Wheaton confirmed Frakes did this because he injured his back and it was more comfortable then twisting his back to sit down the hundred times he would for each retake of a scene. It is also the reason he constantly leans on things.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 11 May 2013 23:40 (thirteen years ago)
the most amazing part is that he does it backwards, when he's getting up, too

then after the writers’ strike, I’d grown a beard because I hated to shave. And Roddenberry fell in love with the beard, and the beard became a part of the character in a way that was, as Gene described it, was a nautical, decorative beard, which he took great pride in designing on my face.

I just recently saw the episode where he's accused of sexual assault, and everyone on the Enterprise is like "of course we believe you, Will, we know you'd never do anything like that"
And I really, really wanted at least one of them to say, "umm, Will, no offense, but these allegations are not exactly shocking me"
