* Playsets may contain traces of Space Madness - Lemmy.World

One day it’s a little space madness then before you know it they’re like “hey, wanna come play this game I found in my mom’s drawer?”*.

“What are these totems in there labeled Buzz and Woody?”

“I’ll explain it to you later.”

On the one hand, I have no idea what Ashley Judd saw in that kid. On the other hand, that kid turned out to be a near-omnipotent being, so I guess that was her loss.

“Space madness” in this case was just some nebula or something that basically turned the air or something into alcohol. I can’t remember Crusher’s exact explination, but simply put everyone was made super drunk by an anomaly.

Which makes the fact that Data was affected by it hella weird.

Yeah, that bugged me a bit. I know he’s got liquid components moving through him like blood, but it still wouldn’t work that way.

What’s worse is that this is all the explanation we get for why Data was affected and it comes from Data himself while he’s affected…

We are more alike than unlike, my dear Captain. I have pores. Humans have pores. I have fingerprints. Humans have fingerprints. My chemical nutrients are like your blood. If you prick me, do I not leak?

So apparently, androids can get drunk because they have pores, fingerprints and chemical nutrients.

That’s not the Space Madness I grew up with. More like some horny old male Writer’s fantasy.

It may be space madness, but that’s no excuse for space RUDENESS.
