    Those Old Scientists sure loved to throw security at every problem and hope they have enough bodies to drown whatever is threatening them.

    I remember when Spike TV was running episodes of TOS with a little trivia ticker and one of the recurring ones was “red shirt death count.”

    It never got as high as I would have thought from my dad and other older trekkies joking about it. But I could imagine seeing the uniform color change in TNG after years of TOS and thinking they were gonna kill off Picard and Riker.

    There’s something about this company that I don’t trust…

    You mean other than the spokesmodel kinda looking like Hillary Clinton was given a happiness transplant and a sacrificial lamb uniform?

    I feel like it’s too close to Redcoats, and I expect them to try to quarter in my house and tax me without representation.
