What kinds of thoughts do you get when playing?

edited August 2012 in Ten Forward
Long title, but when you are thinking or playing the game, doing various things, do you have certain thoughts or images pop into your mind?

A bit confusing of a question, but here's an example I have:

When I'm sitting at an Academy, grinding up DOFFs, I tend to get a rather gruesome picture in my mind about 5 poor, unfortunate common duty officers being ground up in a giant meat grinder a la Pink Floyd's, 'Another Brick in the Wall'.

Rather nasty I admit, but I can't help but think about that a lot of the time I am doing that.

Anybody else have interesting/weird thoughts and such about anything in the game?

    When I was doing exploration missions the other day, I enter a system and one of my officers tells me there's a planet here and we should approach it and investigate.

    I'm thinking "It's a trap! BOMB THE PLANET!!!"

    Unfortunately there is never an option for planetary bombardment... And several minutes later I'm scanning energy-emitting fungus. I tell you we should have bombed the planet.

    Why don't orion women wear trousers ? theres a permanent draught up their loin cloths that comes from nowhere

    How come you get Ferengi bar tenders on a Klingon starbase?? did they bid lowest??

    Why is my Chief engineer stuck in the Wall again ?? (not recently actually we fired that guy)

    Why can't i replicate a cheese sandwich?

    Do Ferengi think joined Trill are "Dinner and entertainment"?

    Where are all the Male Orions??

    Does starfleet issue padded bras or has cosmetic surgery become compulsory?

    Why is YODA in ESD?

    I don't know why. But each time I am hailed by Admiral Quinn, I instinctively say aloud in a looong deep voice... "Quinnnnnnnney" - and hold up jazz hands. I have no idea why I do this.

    I normally sit in my ready room and think what or who should I feed to my carnivorous fish... then I summon a red shirt ensign. The conversation usually follows these lines.

    "Ensign I need you to clean the fish tank, I know it is a thankless job, but I trust you will be gentle and not injure my fish."

    "Yes Sir, Captain Rox, I will begin immediately!", they always respond with a big stupid smile. The kiss ups are always good for a few laughs. Then as I leave the room, I listen at the door for the faint sounds of screaming.

    I look at it as a test of their metal. If they survive, it will make them better officer material. What doesn't kill you, will make you stronger... so what if you have one or two artificial limbs. If they don't survive, then I have a standard accident report. I just fill out the name and date and Starfleet seems to expect those on a regular basis.

    I imagine what it's like to be on Earth at night looking up, seeing hundreds of warp flashes all night long... then I think about how annoying that would be whilst camping. Or how much it would suck to just happen to be looking through a telescope in that exact spot.

    I also wonder if anyone has ever gotten reprimanded for hot-boxing a shuttlecraft.

    Yesterday, I was flying a Tuffli Freighter and doing doff missions when I got one that said "investigate entertainment opportunities with shape-shifting lockets" or something like that.

    My immediate thought was "I'm going to use a living creature as part of an entertainment device. I'm a pirate."

    Later, this idea evolved a little. I'm not a pirate; I'm one of those civilian defense contractors that gets sent in behind the military, cleaning up rebel outposts and setting up infrastructure. I'm not sure how I feel about that morally, but it's a fun game nonetheless.

    I hated that voice in that mission. It took me a couple of days to get it out of my head. When I had to do the mission again I turned my speakers off.

    When I did a Klingon alt during the first set of missions I kept thinking WTF? This is dull.
    This is what warriors get for an intro/tutorial? A tour of the city?

    When I see people jumping and bounding through ESD, or the beginning of Cure Ground, I picture them burning alive. The first couple of times I saw it I wanted to tell them to stop, drop and roll.

    When I finally got all three pieces of Mk XII MACO ground gear I started laughing and had to log off.

    Here's a couple more:

    I wonder, does my captain, being bored flying through space with nothing to do, suddenly yell out 'CHANGE PLACES' to which everyone suddenly scrambles around until the entire bridge crew is at a different station or chair?

    Also, I in turn wonder how the normal NPC enemies feel, when my fleet Star Cruiser, with running Ablative Jevonite Hardpoints, has more hull then they do, especially like a Borg cube!

    I have just one thought....

    How do I get more dilithium so that I can exchange it for Zen?

    That's pretty much it... so far...
