There was a boy who worked in the produce section of the market. One day, a man came in and asked to buy half a head of lettuce.
The boy told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce, but the man replied that he did not need a whole head, but only a half head.
The boy said he would go ask his manager about the matter.
The boy walked into the back room and said, “There is some jerk out there who wants to buy only a half a head of lettuce.”
As he was finishing saying this he turned around to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, “And this gentleman wants to buy the other half.”
The manager okayed the deal and the man went on his way.
Later the manager called on the boy and said, “You almost got yourself in a lot of trouble earlier, but I must say I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of it. You think on your feet and we like that around here. Where are you from son?”
The boy replied, “Minnesota, sir.”
“Oh really? Why did you leave Minnesota?” asked the manager.
The boy replied, “They’re all just loose women and hockey players up there.”
The manager was shocked and replied, “My wife is from Minnesota!!”
The boy answered, “Really? What team did she play for?”
I'll get my coat.

I had to use that line in real life almost 40 years ago in real life, 1st year university at Waterloo University.
I was in Co-Op Engineering, and we were in the Common Room discussing our job placements.
One of the guys was excited about his job placement in Sudbury.
I said "What are you so excited about? I've been there and all there are Hockey players and Hookers".
Debbie was standing there and said, "I'm from Sudbury!!!!"
With a straight face I delivered the line, and ran for my life.
I'm told much beer was sprayed.
It was a Leslie then.

Does that mean that the whole of Australia will explode if someone in a red shirt goes anywhere near it?

No. I think Australia is a lot more resilient.

In a massive console explosion!
I never did understand why Star Fleet insisted on packing control consoles with Hi-Ex: surely Health and Safety would say "What the Elephant are you doing?" and "Put the explosives in the damn Photon Torpedoes!"

Why did we invent the optoisolators if not to avoid the errors that created the ST future? They didn't understand that mixing power and control electronics in a energy-based massive starship could lead to some troubles when the power supply would be perturbed by, say, a phaser straight in the hull...

And while we are on the subject, why put the Command and Control centre (aka The Bridge) right at the top where it is easy to shoot at? It's not like it has any windows to look out of!
Stick it in the middle, behind loads of armour, and the people who give the orders are best protected...

Actually the disc section was equipped with its own sublight engines and life support systems as it was designed to be completely detachable from the nacelles (which were better far from the personnel quarters, there is antimatter in there).
Also the ship was armed, but mainly for self-defense as it was an exploration vessel, in fact "its five year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life forms and civilizations, to boldly go where noone has ever gone before".

Yeah, right...
Yes the "Next Gen" Enterprise could split up - and do pretty much nothing useful afterwards with either half, given that the weapons were on the saucer, but the powers supply for them was on the other bit - but the bridge was still the most exposed bit! One tiny misjudgment by Data in driving out of spacedock and the whole command structure gets decapitated!
And every Starfleet design was the same: Enterprise (all three major versions), Voyager, even the Defiant sticks it up front and vulnerable!

They relied on the hull and the shields, all to avoid the cramped spaces of a warship... it makes even more sense in TNG and Voyager as the duration of the mission increased to the point that the crew was allowed to take families on board. It forces carefulness and skill in maneuvring the ship and avoiding conflict, but i hope they wouldn't send half-orcs to pilot a starship
BTW I found the design of the Enterprise as the most fascinating... until I discovered the Normandy and the Normandy SR2 of Mass Effect. Innovating a starship design after ST is a hard task but in my opinion the guys at Bioware nailed it.

Ah yes, Voyager, the Microsoft Windows powered space vehicle. BANG...weapons are off line, attempting to restart (<cntl-alt-del> furiously).

Here[^] you go. A drawing right from the 1960s. A terran battleship is not so easy to kill. 
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Forgot about that post. Still, this answer is worth the repost.
