Tribble Wars

Full view, please, if you would be so kind.

My inner Trekkie has been aroused at last.

Okay, this one is for because she made me see the new Star Trek film, despite my fear "they" would ruin it. Fortunately, this movie only enhanced my love for Star Trek ten fold. I saw it for the *ahem* third time a few days ago right after and I introduced to the classic, deliciously cheesy original Star Trek episodes--"Trouble with Tribbles" being one of them.

. . .And a little of that led to a lot of this. I thought it would be funny as heck if the crew of the Enterprise just started throwing Tribbles at eachother just because there were so many of them. What else are they good for, besides being cute and loving?

Scottie: Taste Tribble, Laddie!!!
Chekov: Haha! Yea Mio!
Sulu: I got him, Chekov! Fencing's paid off after all!
McCoy: Damnit, Scottie! I'm a doctor, not a general!

Kirk: And you said they had no practical use, Spock?
Spock: Well, Captain, I suppose I could have been mistaken.
