I like to think I'm Captain Picard.... Suave, urbane, and able to kick ass and take names, but without being a complete prick about it (like some executive officers that could be mentioned). As a bonus, irresistible to a certain redheaded doctor.

Reality, of course, rarely lives up to our dreams. I was previously employed by a college which employed a hallowed honor code governing student behavior. Any alleged infraction resulted in a hearing by members of the honor council. After a suitable period of time, an "abstract" of the case describing the charges, the evidence, and the resolution was published, out of a desire for openness and to encourage community involvement and debate in the process. However, the names of all participants were anonymized. Usually this took the form of chatacters from a TV show or movie. For example, in a situation of harassment by an ex-boyfriend, the report might include a confrontation between Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara.

I explain all this boring detail so you'll have some context when I tell you that I once made an appearance in one of these proceedings as Commander Data. (A student was claiming to have written an assignment but lost it in a floppy disk crash. I was asked to examine the disk to see if there was any evidence of damage or portions of lost files.)

It's okay being a Data. I'm a Data. What you see me doing here is a poor simulation of human behavior.

Can I be a tribble?

No TOS!!!1

Highly illogical.

The Original Series of Star Trek in contrast to The Next Generation.

TOS:
Kirk, Spock, Bones, Scotty, Sulu, Uhuru, etc etc

TNG:
Picard, Data, Geordie, Worf, Crusher, Riker, etc etc

Oh, thought it was like CSI:

You got CSI Miami, CSI NY, but no CSI The First One They Came Up With.

[Spock]Captain, I believe we are entering the forbidden fanboy zone.[/Spock]

Still illogical.

We'd be in the fanboy zone if the thread was called "Which ST:TNG character are you?"

DSN and the cartoons don't count? I've always wanted to be cute.....

I'd have to say I'm a Romulan. To me they are just pissed off Vulcans. They're smart but also want to kill the idiots around them. :)

Troi, then I can play with Riker.

you sure you got the mooseknuckle requirement covered.... to be dana troi?
