Weird early morning brain

Picard: Tea, Earl Grey, hot.

Synthesizer: The El Gruyot was a naval cheeseboard responsible for mapping the coast of Chile in the year 512 Common Era.

Picard (loudly and distinctly): TEA. EARL. GREY. HOT.

Synth: Teelgri is not available. Please select from menu.

<Beep>

Picard: Geordie ...

(background, indistinct: oolong, ooshort, haha redacted, lava, java, three days cold)

Loud CLUNK as Picard hits the reset button.

I’ve seen all of Star Trek: The Next Generation several times already, but this time I’m paying special attention to Patrick Stewart’s performance and am completely in awe. The depth that he brings to Captain Picard can be breathtaking. Every pose, every movement, every gesture is fully motivated and completely believable. Every emotion rings true. What a remarkable actor. #STTNG #StarTrek

Watched the Bynars episode of TNG the other night. I love the fact that when Riker asks them what kinds of upgrades they did to the holodeck, they just kind of shrug and say "enhancements" like it's the Starfleet equivalent of "bug fixes and performance improvements."
