Always thought it was funny how Q was so frustrated by Riker - and, eventually, Sisko as well - that (afterword's) he confined himself to tormenting Picard and Janeway xD
@@tumbles8350 I’d be the ultimate troll. Better than sleeping with the girl of your dreams. Having the ability to mess with people on a daily band is forever. That can’t be boring.
I dont see him as annoying and i dont get why the crew is always pissed at him. Their mission is to seek out new life and the Q ought to be the most interesting
Like they say you can’t say you have a set of values or standards until they have been tested. To be fair to riker I more than likely would’ve given in to The continuum
The writers were rather creative, in their own savage, pathetic, limited, fragile, and compulsive way. Thankfully they learned, grew, felt the need to better themselves… and then went on strike. Pfft!
Maybe I don't understand Riker the best to give this thought up, but it seems pretty stupid to just up and deny Q's offer. Not to say Riker should fuck of and live transcended, free to abuse reality. But the opportunity to become like them seems to be something the federation would be all about knowing more of. To truly go where no man has gone before. And it's not like all the Q is terrible. We see with the Q we know that even though he's horrible and pompous, he has his own weird standards. He's more an annoying ass than anything else. And other Q we get to meet are more or less reasonable. Plus they do follow an order. With all these things to consider, something like "I'll consider it on my deathbed" would have been more in touch with Riker. He gets to tell off Q a bit, and leaves the door open for more discovery
In his defense, this is literally the second encounter with Q after the terrifying experience at Farpoint. Even now, he interrupted a rescue mission, forcefully put him and his friends through a deadly "game" and put Tasha in a "penalty box". He has every reason to distrust Q
@@marcushazen6546 give Him your time. It's easy to get distracted by life. What I've found is that when I shut up and put my own thoughts and agenda aside that God will speak to you. Approach God with humility and confess your sins because He wants you to be clean spiritually. Read the Bible and pray... But most of all you have to establish a relationship with Him through Jesus. . Understand that we are all guilty of sin before a Holy God. The Bible says the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Realize and admit your own inadequacy before God,. Believe that Jesus is the son of God, died and Rose again, confess of your sins,, and do your best not to sin anymore. That's not possible on your own but can be with the help of the Holy Spirit. It's real.
Not at all. I mean, you can call the old testament God "capricious", which Q certainly is. But they don't, in any way, feel the same. It's almost as if you don't really care, you just like to insult religion wherever it kind of fits.
@@j.dragon651 I don't feel insulted if that's what you're asking. But Q is so much different from the OT God that I could only assume you like to bash religion wherever the context allows it. That, or you don't really know anything about this god other than that he's called "capricious" by Professor Dawkins. Because that epithet is kind of the only kind of similarity.
"The human compulsion to learn."
Someone edit this together with those compilations of Jonathan Frakes asking questions.
They can't. They're too busy editing Riker saddling chairs. Otherwise known as the Riker Maneuver.
@@josephmassaro they can't, don't even try
Gotta love Riker's first reaction to Q giving him godlike powers: "LOL gtfo"
I need the opening 10 seconds on a recurring loop to assist in my doctorate of pure Frakesology
Is that what they teach at universities now?
Riker refused yet another promotion.
💀
He's afraid of the big chair. 😂

How many people would be able to refuse that offer? Ironically, once you can have and do anything, nothing seems quite as interesting anymore.
You wouldn't go around swapping people's feet or giving them an extra few inches here and there? You lack imagination
I would gladly accept Q's gift 👽😎😊

The quickest route to boredom in a video game is becoming op
As annoying as he is.. TNG wouldn't be complete without Q.. and that's all down to the superb acting from john de lancie
I dont see him as annoying and i dont get why the crew is always pissed at him. Their mission is to seek out new life and the Q ought to be the most interesting
I've been looking for this admission from q for a while, I thought it was with Picard.
He was right. I did miss him…
"Have you any idea how far we'll advance?"
"Perhaps in the future you can't yet conceive.... even beyond us."
Nice planet. I wouldn't mind going there.
Seems peaceful too. Nice place to smoke a blunt.
Beyond Q? I doubt it. Star Trek can't even decide what timeline to follow. There are more branch points than the Terminator franchise.
Like they say you can’t say you have a set of values or standards until they have been tested. To be fair to riker I more than likely would’ve given in to The continuum
Only a moron would have said no given what was at stake.
The q continuum is syppose to be analogous to Heaven?
I appreciate the incredible bad quality of this video!

Beyond. Q???????
Interesting Hmmmmmm??????
>humans are savage and to be condemned
>klingons, ferengi
the difference being that only humans deny their savagery.. the ferengi and klingons embrace their brand of savagery
The limitless dimensions of the galaxy? And yet a galaxy has a boundary. So the Q are indeed limited to just the galaxy.
Q chases quinn to the birth of the universe, unless that specifically took place in the milky he has left it at least once
2:42
💚
Galaxy? That's it? Boo
...and JESUS WALKED THE DESERT for 40 DAYS, during which he was tempted by the Devil....where he offered him everything under the sun and moon...
Yeah lmfao
Interesting correlation. Also in Genesis.. You can be like God... The appeal to pride and the first sin.
@@michaelsparlin292 What I find really galling is that the devil had/s NO authority to offer Christ anything!

Q acts like the capricious god of the old testament.
