I still remember back when Star Trek was just a goofy show to watch with the family after ya did your homework in the evening. I remember this exact exciting episode too.
I asked my Mom “Mom, why does the Doomsday Machine look like a piece a shit?”
“Uggghhh - I dunno. Just watch the show…”
“But…there has to be a reason for it right? Lookit! It’s pinched off at one end-“
“Ahhhh! Glen, shut up!!!” Mom cringed.
“What kind of creature could poop like that? Is it one of those adult things that only grown ups get?”
“Glen!!! Shut up! Do as yer mother says!!!” Dad barked. The poor bugger just wanted to read his newspaper in peace.
“Does shit stink in a vacuum, Dad?”
That one got me sent to bed early. And years, decades later… I never did figure any of it out.
I always thought the Doomsday weapon looked like a big Alien Reefer. It was powered by the marijuana on the planets it destroyed.

Yup... I remember that one...
Just visit anyplace the street sh*tters go (pun intended) and you'll understand.
ReplyDeleteShit doesn't stink until you smell it. Kinda like the dirty drawers Glen Filthie hooks with his big toe and flings down the stairs.
