That feel when I’ll never be named as an ancestor to Cpt Jean-Luc Picard.
You know, though. You know.
All good, I’m an ancestor to Riker.

One of my biggest regrets is not making it to The Experience when I could have.
I got to visit as a junior high age kid. It was an amazing experience.
It was pretty cool. I went with friends, and we got very drunk on a drink called a Warp Core Breach and then did the experience. I remember being impressed at the pacing and the acting of the members running the ride.
This was during the Borg 4D period, and it was pretty novel for the time. A pain to get to from the strip, though, probably part of its undoing.
Had some good times drinking Warp Core Breaches at Quarks Bar in Vegas back when I was young and fun.
When I turned 21, my dad took me to a Star Trek thing in Vegas. There was a Borg invasion sim and then we got to have drinks at Quarks (I got some gigantic fucking fish bowl of blue stuff). It was fun, but I barely remember it because of that giant blue drink. lol
I had gotten a shirt that was a riff on the old “Im with Stupid” joke that said “I’m with Illogical.” I don’t know where it is now tho…
