In the episode Code of Honor, Yar says that Troi tricked her when Deanna appears to read Tasha's emotions to reveal that she is flattered by Lutan's request to make her his First One.

Soldiers eating Ork burgers is referenced in a few works based in the 40k universe. Given the very strange physiology of the 40k Orks, could humans actually ingest them?
I am referring to standard Imperium humans and not space marines, who could probably eat a raw Ork and its boots without is...

While reading through The Gunslinger, I came across the following line in the 2nd paragraph of Chapter 5:
sullen, inbred clan-fams, toiling silently in the fields by day.

This question about Bilbo understanding the spiders after he wore the Ring in Mirkwood, got me wondering. Were the spiders really sentient? If they could talk with purpose and in a meaningful manner I would tend to think so.

In the TNG episode "Relics" where Scotty returns, Data serves Scotty a glass of a green liquid which he cannot identify. The drink is later identified as Picard as Aldebaran Whiskey, which seems to be a fairly well-known liquor during the TNG era. It makes appearances throughout the franchise, an...
