Man, we're being assimilated too? Blast it.

WE? He said ME. Get your own Borg!

Well yeah, it's starting with you, but I would expect it to spread as it has on the Board.

Goodness gracious. I think the borg would explode if it assimilated Marduk and Vorpal Blade, though. Maybe we should work on getting that to happen, since it wouldn't always be in agreement with itself.

Almost never, more like.

We'll get Bismark in there too, then we're golden. But would such a huge implosion on itself inevitably turn the universe into a singularity?

I was going to say Black Sheep too (I love her.), but then I realized that the haiku said that (presumably) she's going to be borgified soon.

All this talk of assimilation reminds me of a different kind of "alien" that has such a similar mantra:

You will be upgraded!

If you refuse, you will be deleted.

So, yeah, different universe, different tactics, different killin', they just remind me of it.

Though, really, everything reminds me of Doctor Who. <3

I have Picard-like ability to resist assimilation.

I've never gotten in to Dr. Who. If I had time, though, I would. And if I actually knew where I was supposed to start.

Gonna go waaaay out on a nerd-limb here, but I'm really, really attracted to Rachel Maddow right now.

MAYBE IF I WRITE IN ALL-CAPS I CAN SNEAKILY INFILTRATE THEM AND DESTROY THE BORG FROM WITHIN

BORG, PREPARE TO BE ELIMINATED

BOARDIES, RESISTANCE IS WORTHWHILE

Nerd-limb? Veronica Belmont or Felicia Day attractions sure, but Rachel Maddow? Perhaps political junkie-limb?

ATTRACT THE BORG. AND ATTACK THE BORG.

BORG, PREPARE TO BE DISSIMILATED.

All you people on twitter should go read what I said in response to Coggers in response to scentofthesun. I thought I was funny.

*didn't crack a smile*

But maybe I'm not the best gauge for funny things.

What I do like, having looked at cognoscente's twitter, is the way borg.byu.edu will take you to the Board.

But you didn't see my response! That was the best part.

The bit about Edward and turtlenecks?

Yeah, I'm not in the mood to smile tonight.
