It was bound to happen eventually.
I have a few self-assigned merit badges. Among my top two:
1- I have, on multiple occasions, eaten "just one" Lays Potato Chip, whose penultimate slogan is "you can't eat just one."
2- I have never, ever engaged myself in an argument regarding best Star Trek Captain.
Today I must relinquish merit badge #2. Our IT guy was saying that he never got into DS9 because he just didn't think much of Sisko.
I said I thought Sisko had the most character development out of the lot of them, and was the first one with a human personality (Kirk was a futuristic James Bond, while Picard was, let's face it, a little bland as a person). This made him by far the best.
He looked at me in shock. "Better than Picard." He stuttered, disbelief in his eyes.
Just like that, man. It was on.
