Social Media Post:
Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but they’re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

    Completely agree.

    If I would ever be in desperate need of help it would instantly comfort me to see a trekkie or a metalhead. The average wholesomeness is ridiculously high.

      Metalhead over a trekkie any way. Seven foot tall, face full of piercings, absolute kitten

        Exactly.

        (But also Im running away from a trekkie cosplaying as Neelix … and assaulting the Tuvix one)

          I have a mate who literally fills the trifecta lol

          Metalhead - Actually plays guitar for a thrash band - piercings to hell and back, seven foot tall, built like a fucking tank, loud motorcycles.

          Yes he’s a mushball and a raging nerd

        You mean the same ones who call every music other than metal “crap” and “not even real music”?

        Nah, I will take a Trekkie every day of the week.
