You might be safe what kind of Hondas are those, are they khitomer Accords?

Wow, this wordplay has layers.

Good thing there's a neutral zone in between.

So there's a cloaked pickup flying a Romulan flag in the street?

SzethFriendOfNimi@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y

OP. It’s time to have a clear plastic flag with white for the Romulan empire made and placed at the edge of your property.

I want to live in this neighborhood so badly. If anyone can get me into a rental in that neighborhood, I will fly the flag of Bajor!

The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website · 33 pts · 2y (6 replies)

You may be in a neighborhood like that already! You just need to be the first to fly the flag.

My nearest neighbor is a km/half a mile away, and she has no interest in star trek. The only flag she flies has MAGA on it :(

So a ferengi

FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Ferengi at least follow rules, give me them or even the Borg before a bunch of Y’all Qaeda

Flags you say? What's your stance on statues of benevolent rulers?

DharmaCurious@startrek.website · 4 pts · 2y (2 replies)

No statues to the butcher of Bajor!

What about the Hero of Canton? The man they call Jane?

The minister seems nice and well meaning enough but…kinda creepy and you don’t want to be alone with her

Anticorp@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 2y

She's busy sleeping with the enemy at this point.

Neighbor next door is a Romulan flag, you just can't see it.

Well played

Apeman42@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

The actual Cardassian flag, or the Dukat one that says "Make Cardassia Strong Again"?

I can’t tell how serious you are but I love the DS9 analogy.

Madison420@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Would need a root cellar in the backyard that leads to God.

Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 28 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Me, down the street: "THE ROMULAN EMPIRE WILL RISE AGAIN!"

Madison420@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

If it ever fell. They're the sneakiest of the main species, I wouldn't put it past them to have a foundation caste. Ie. One empire on this side of the galaxy one on the other side with a underlying society to sorta regulate interactions.

Glory to you, and your house.

Your neighbors probably: today is a good day to die.

Other neighbor next door:
Dominion

This would obviously be where Jeffrey Combs lives.

norbert@kbin.social · 6 pts · 2y

That entire side of the street is his houses, they all look completely different and were built at different times but they're all very nice houses and people love them.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Ferenginar? Andoria? Cybertron?

Is the road the Neutral Zone?

ex_nihilo@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

It would be if the neighbors hung the romulan empire flag.

Palerider@feddit.uk · 13 pts · 2y

Huh, amatures. We didn't bother with the Klingon flag, we had the symbol put into our block paved drive.

clearedtoland@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I wish I had cool (uncool?) neighbors like that. Mine just never trim their encroaching hedges, and generally seem friendly but slightly ominous - like cardassians or romulans, come to think of it.

totallynotarobot@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Cardassians would have slaves to trim the hedges tho
