Trekkies or Trekkers
FANDOM: Star Trek in all its various, glorious iterations.
DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS:
↢ An extreme aversion to red tops
↢ Expert Vulcan salute
↢ Yelling "KHAAAAAAAN!" whenever frustrated
KEY ACCESSORIES: Uhura's comms officer dress; closed communicatorphone case; Starfleet Combadge earrings; bat'leth necklace; tinynoise-making replica tribble
HOW TO BECOME ONE: Diehard Trekkies may disagree, but I'd startwith the 2009 J. J. Abrams film Star Trek: it stars a veritable lunchbuffet of hotties and, since it's a reboot, you don't need any priorTrek knowledge to enjoy it. If you want to get into one of theshows, you've got two good points of entry: Star Trek: The NextGeneration, a classic, starring Patrick Stewart and a lovable bandof crewmates, or Star Trek: Voyager, the only Trek with a femalestarship captain, and my personal fave Trek of all time.
UNENDING DEBATES: TOS or TNG? For that matter, Kirk or Picard?Why did Star Trek: Enterprise have to happen? Is there any way toorder tea other than "Earl Grey, hot"? Star Trek or Star Wars (anddoes it matter now that J.J. Abrams does both?)
