“mood” is a favorite among crewmembers of all ages and backgrounds. kirk rips his shirt? “mood”. the landing party gets captured/lost? “mood”. red alert? “mood”.

a poll questioning which member of the bridge crew has the most “big dick energy” runs for 3 weeks before kirk is forced to shut it down (in case you want to know: it’s uhura)

someone finds a database of ‘vine compilations’ and soon it’s par the course to hear someone yelling “YEET” before tossing their rubbish across the rec room into the recycler, or crewmembers on the landing party screaming “I WON’T HESITATE, BITCH” while pointing their phaser at an alien threat

kirk: your ship’s systems are compromised, your weapons have been disabled and most of your crew is injured or dead. we are, however, willing to provide assistance if you surrender.

random adversary #29473: i would rather DIE than accept help from YOU

kirk:

then perish

mccoy will never forget the day he passed the science labs just as something spock added to a test tube blew up in his face and, before he could let himself in to assess the damage (and also make fun of the vulcan for making a mistake), spock stood up, brushed himself off, and in his usual calm, monotone voice, said “wig, ok”
