I'll be your host. As last year, I pick the answers, you guess the questions, and you must remember to use the signalling device and phrase your response in the form of a question.
I'll start it off with the first category: "American Skankwomen." Like last year, the first couple of correct responders will get to name the rest of the categories, until all the category boxes are filled. (Of course, I'll reserve the right to veto any categories i think are lame.)
So here's the first question:
Good luck!
Update: Controversy on the first question already! Drake Steel's response, which was accepted by the judges, was 54 hours. According to Wikipedia, Brittany's marriage to Jason Alexander lasted 55 hours. Just to be absolutely certain, I looked up the annulment certificate, which bears a time stamp of 12:24 p.m. on January 5, 2004. I then determined the difference between the reported time of marriage, 5:30 a.m. and the time of annulment. The result is exactly 54 hours and 54 minutes. So, therefore I would have accepted either 54 or 55 hours as a correct response. So big congratulations to Drake, who participated last year but never got on the board!

It was after a wildly unsuccessful run with Esquire.com Personals, a paid service affiliated with the men's magazine, that "S" (he asked that his name not be used) sought out Trek Passions. The final straw came when he was rejected by a woman with whom he had nothing in common. "She was the complete and total opposite of me in every way," he confesses. When the self-proclaimed "Spock-like personality" turned out not to be "fashionably ironic," she was disappointed. (He doesn't think his day job as a janitor helped his cause any.)Here's a typical intro from the site, by a 31 year old male seeking female:"S" says that he's been told: "Weird people should date other weird people - the normals don't quite understand."
Your basic Spock-like personality here, seeking a woman with a personality somewhere in the Deanna Troi to Subcommander T'Pol range. will consider B'Elana Torres to Kira Nerys types depending on extenuating circumstances. No tribbles, please.Here's another one from an average carbon-based life-form:
I've been in way too many relationships where the girl I'm with thinks "He's great, except for that Sci-Fi fascination" . . . I'm so done with that, and just looking for someone who can enjoy an hour of Trek with me instead of in the other room.Lol, good luck with that, dude.
This one's short and to the point:
Take me to your bedroom, earthling. I live ST:OS, ST:TNG, BSG and BDSM.Bwahaha! I'm not sure I'm familiar with the acronym for that last tv show, though.
Now, I know some of my readers have probably already opened up another window and are feverishly typing their intros as we speak. On the other hand, some of you geeks might be skeptical, like Conan O'Brien was:
Trek Passions received a boost back in March, when, on his late-night talk show, Conan O'Brien quipped: "The fans say the dating website is going great and any month now they hope a girl will join."Funny, but I did check and yes, there are a few girls on the site. Here's a choice one:
My pictureÂ’s a stretched horizontally; IÂ’m not nearly that wide in real life, jeez. Just bought STNG 1 and 3 collectorÂ’s on DVD. . . . I like characters and episodes more than series, although STNG and Voyager have the best decorating, I mean, where would you rather be quartered; on PicardÂ’s Enterprise or KirkÂ’s? . . . To sum up my personality lets just say that if there were Hobbits in the Trek series I would identify strongly and have the same values. I also probably look and act like one, except IÂ’m bigger.Now, I also know curious blog readers are thinking, "hey, Annika's got TNG Season's one to three on DVD, and she's been known to sprinkle lines from The Prisoner into her blog posts."
Well, stop wondering. Even if I didn't have a boyfriend already, you wouldn't catch me posting my Janeway inspired picture on the internet, trolling for über-nerds in some cyberspace version of the Mos Eisley Cantina.
I would simply wait until the next Creation convention, hang out by the comic tables, and bat my eyelashes like one of Mudd's Women.
