The best part is that Troi literally pointed out how moronic it all is
>oh like Julliet from Romeo and Julliet. You could say 'Julliet on her balcony' could mean a romantic situation, assuming you knew the context
So basically it's 'a drunk dude tells you his life story and you know no context but smile anyway'
>a bloo bloo I don’t get it!
Shaka must have felt pretty bad when the walls fell! Christ!
Christ on the cross
Christ on a cracker!
>The best part is that Troi literally pointed out how moronic it all is
Why would it be quixotic? Sure, their way of communicating may seem masochistic - perhaps even orwellian - at first, and translating it may feel like a herculean if not an outright sisyphean task, but relying on shared knowledge to communicate more concisely is actually a gigachad move. Don't drink the kool-aid of spelling everything out autistically.
>not being able to communicate without someone being part of your shitty club is gigachad move
okie
Underrated
10/10 you machiavellian you
Hitler
>Pepe, his hands upraised in exasperation
Twitch emotes are the same bullshit. What the frick is monkaS.
Anon, his brain turned on
Cool episode but it kinda fricks the lore up. All languages contain tons of metaphors and idioms. What good is a universal translator if it can't translate implied meaning?
I think whats even worse is that this stupid species that speaks only in idioms, upon discovering space travel and encountering other species did not think this was a moronic way of going about things when engaging in diplomacy.
Its like if Christians got angry about people not knowing about christ and then thinking they were heathens for having another culture... you would think they would have a doctrine for interacting with people who practice other religions in other parts of the world.
I always thought this civilization must get all of its information through old videos, and then it's language is the verbal equivalent of memes.
Obi Wan, his smile wide = "Hello there"
Luke, his hand cut off = "That's impossible"
Rey, her lightsaber outstretched = "Disney sucks these days"
Anon, trying to generate a thought
Anon at Fourchen, when truer words spoken
>Rey, her lightsaber outstretched = "Disney is trans"
speaking in memes is actually something i do with close friends sometimes, like just quoting a line from a video we all know to express a particular mood
so maybe these guys have just watched thousands of years of tv and youtube at this point
Pizza Hut, when it was in the garage
Thought it was the Wichita state university campus.
Yeah I guess this way of speaking really isn't clear enough
Why the frick did Picard have to learn his moronic language when he made no effort to communicate with Picard in the way humans speak, which he could clearly understand?
janny, his payment zero
Janny, when infinite wieners
Janny at party
Shaka when sphincter fell
janny, the rope very strong
Janny, when ackkk
Moot when happy
Moot and anon at Tanagra
>but but you have to know the context
no different than pic related. but like the other anon said it's star trek the universal translator should be able to translate it to literal meaning regardless.
My point about bringing up Troi pointing out the fact without context that you didn't know what it means is that the concept of the speech is fricked in the story too
It's literally like taking a drawing of a person laying on the ground and a car
>car crash victim when his legs broken
no motherfricker in this case it means 'man being tanned, car not moving'
That's the problem
Imagine putting Julliet on her balcony with no context. None. It's just some teenage b***h on her balcony. Tell me how that signifies romance without knowing who the frick Julliet is
>Jack on his balcony, calls for Betty
Who the frick is Betty? Is Betty his fricking dog?
Kramer, at the Laugh Factory
Bane, his plan to get caught
Big guy and small guy in airplane
Small guy when question
Big guy when mask
Small guy when painful
It'd be more like
Bane his arms binded
CIA his weapon loaded
Bane his arms uncuffs
CIA his gun fires
Bane his plan is reckoning
CIA his plane falling
The Doctor needs saving
CIA and Bane at the plane
ESL, his grammar bad
You do realize that is literally the whole concept of the moronic aliens right?
It was more or less 'no proper grammar; message given'
both of you are moronic, its a short sentence, and you basically told the whole damn thing.
CIA, before the plane
>Confidence before a fall
Bane, his masterplan
>A clever ruse being sprung
Bane, when the fire rose
>A necessary sacrifice for a greater good
>Jannies, their pockets empty after work
>troony, dick is gone, no vegana tho.
>OP, when the dick erected.

The beast at Tanagra
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra
Darmok and Jalad on the Ocean
we dont know
shaka, his fists open
Darmok and Jalad were two strangers stranded at Tanagra. They cooperated to defeat the beast and sailed off as friends.
So is this how normies feel when they try to decipher a post on an incel forum?
>incel forum
reddit Black person, far from home
>wojak and friend, mouths agape
I don't understand how they came up with any names or stories originally if they only talk in stories. At some point somebody had to speak a coherent language
You literally see it happen in the episode.
>Picard and Dathon at El-Adrel
Captain Jean-Luc Picard, USS Enterprise.

Make, make, make-it-make-it make it so.
Make it so.
MOVING FROM TOPIC TO TOPIC
IT WAS VERY QUITE HYPNOTIC
Forrest, his chocolates eaten.
>retzrds arguing because they dont know how UT works
HOW THE FRICK DID THEY TEACH THEIR KIDS THE LANGUAGE
UTs aren't real, they're a cop out mechanism created by creative hack and devout communist cuckold Gene Roddenberry.
The Janny, on payday
how do you manage to coordinate the building of a starship with metaphorical language? probably not a lot of cultural basis for "warp reactor"
>steve, his face melted
Kek. Can you imagine what their situational red alert must be like? They must need something terrible to happen to their ship before they can turn it into an emergeny announcement.
>[ship name], its shell ruptured.
>[ship name], its heart bleeds.
>ensign on the bridge picks up two ships dropping out of warp and closing rapidly
"Anon's streaming channel, his first and second copy-strike" (two unknowns approaching, possible danger)
>the ships do not respond to hails, sensors read weapons systems are charging up
"Our ISP, the letter sent!"
>phaser fire strafe the ship, shield collapse imminent
"The Gooseman, his face grimaced!"
Ikea, the diagrams in order.
How does one order a complicated food order with this fricked up language?
Maybe they have an idiom for stuff like "no cheese" and "extra bacon", can't imagine what it would even be, though.
>no cheese
janny, his hot pocket empty.
Karen, her meal organic.
Pewdepie at the bridge
burger king hat guy, in the airplane
