They knew that they needed advanced shoulder pads if they were going to shoulder the responsibility of controlling the galaxy.

Romulans > Atlas. Atlas just had to shoulder the Earth. The Romulans have to shoulder the whole galaxy!

Someone with Photoshop skills please create a Romulan shoulder PADD.

Q gender swaps the Space Marines. The fandom immediately starts a civil war.

As long as he gender swaps The Sisters of Battle, and The Guard, it's all good.

You'll start the civil war gender swapping Slannesh

Gender-swap Slaanesh? Nothing happens. They are canonically he/she/both/none-of-the-above.

And that's the opening argument that causes the fan civil war.

As long as he's not fucking with me in other ways, that's fine.

I'm pretty sure I glued a few shoulder pads sticking out and backwards back in the day. They still looked alright heh.

"power overwhelming" was the invincibility cheat code in StarCraft.

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Someone caught it!

The certainty that romulan had, that asked geordi to connect disparate tech (his visor to his tricorder)... like it was just a given that all tech is composable, and that they use singularities for power... i would accept it as canon that romulan tech is superior.

The Frieza Force clearly had the superior shoulder pad technology:

That said, it couldn't help them from being picked apart by a hillbilly in orange pants.
