The Starship Puntabulous
Welcome aboard the Starship Puntabulous! Its continuing mission, to seek out new life and sexy civilizations. Feel free to take a look around the ship. Some of the faces may look familiar, and hopefully they do because they’re all you guys. Each character in the panels below is specifically modeled after frequent readers and commenters. There’s a key at the end if you need help telling who is who, or maybe even help finding yourself, because I’m not that great of an artist, and there aren’t too many ways to distinguish a guy with brown hair using MSPaint. I got as many of you as I could. Sorry if I left anyone out!

Ah, I see that in the future I can finally afford to have Lasik surgery and get rid of my glasses. Cool!
VUBOQ was totally the easiest to pick out. Well, except the ones whose names were specifically mentioned.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 6:37 am
Amazing. I can’t believe you included so many people. Very funny, but I WAS wearing a red shirt.
Job well done. Loved Avitribble.
By Michelle M., May 26, 2009 @ 6:45 am
Wow. This is nuts! I loooove it! I hope we’ll be seeing more adventures on board the Starship Puntabulous.
Avitribble!!
Dave S.’s abs – RP and the cupcake!
That last panel would make a great poster.
*A mere nurse? That’s highly illogical. But I am relieved that I’m not wearing a red shirt : ).
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 6:59 am
Sexiest crew EVAR!!! Tam, I’m with you in the red shirt too! Oh, wait, red shirts are bad. Hey!
Love the flight crew, Joe, Enrico and Cupcake. Poor Michelle, ruled by logic and surrounded by pretty boys. Joe is rocking that skirt.
LOVE the green dancers! And Polt’s goatee VUBOQ’s outfit and the family quietly playing cards and probably slightly fearful of where they are.
By Michelle M., May 26, 2009 @ 7:03 am
Joemo’s rocking (and bulging out of) his dress.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 7:18 am
Michelle M.: Well, yeah. I can’t imagine tucking is comfortable.
By Evolving, May 26, 2009 @ 7:30 am
OMG. This is pure and utter brilliance. And Holla! Drinkin’ with Bossy ROCKS.
By ExAstrisScientia, May 26, 2009 @ 7:37 am
I love it! there must be 7 years of adventures!
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 7:42 am
There will most certainly be adventures starring the crew of Starship Puntabulous.
And for those of you upset about being in a red shirt, may I remind you that Uhura, Scottie, and Jean Luc Picard all wore red
Michelle M: I thought you would like being with Polt! Just imagine the hijinks!
By Michael, May 26, 2009 @ 7:50 am
I’m honored just to have been included! There will be TV in the future, right? Right?!
By ExAstrisScientia, May 26, 2009 @ 8:20 am
while in the shower this morning I was thinking of designs for the new “Argyle Class” Starship
By BOSSY, May 26, 2009 @ 8:21 am
So fun fun fun!
By David, May 26, 2009 @ 8:31 am
I was getting all mopey until the last panel. Yay, I’m at the bar with both VUBOQ and Bossy. It IS science fiction!
You made me laugh out loud with this one.
By ScottieC, May 26, 2009 @ 8:33 am
Yay! Science officers FTW. Though I’m not sure why Nicole would pass on (what is sure to be) a super sexy away mission!
Wicked job Craiggers. Looking forward to the adventures of the crew. My only question… how did you know what everyone looks like? Cyber stalking much?
By Howard, May 26, 2009 @ 8:34 am
Right like I’d be staying around a bar with a drink in my hand. Not since I was in my 20′s, baby. Oh, wait. Science FICTION. OK, cool!
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 8:38 am
Wow, going back and looking again (kind of rushed this morning) loved little Richard Parker and Ryan’s cupcake. I love that I get to work the transporter, and Joe’s dress and well, everything.
Kristen was pretty amazed that you made ALL those people when she saw the guide at the end.
Michelle: GET TO BED!!!!!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 8:41 am
This is absolutely incredible! *So* funny! Joemo’s definitely my fave.
And, hey! Now I have a picture of Jonah to throw darts at! Woohoo!
By vuboq, May 26, 2009 @ 9:07 am
This is great
I’m so happy to be in the bar. In purple! YAYz!
Can someone explain the hamster in panel one? I feel like I’m missing a joke.
By Christian Jay, May 26, 2009 @ 9:08 am
haha! *seal claps* Brilliant. This is why you have the best bloggy around!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 9:10 am
I keep looking at this thing over and over again…
I love that Tam’s transporter control panel looks like a censor bar.
And Polt is awesome.
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 9:11 am
vuboq: That’s Richard Parker, Enrico’s almost-more-famous-than-him hamster.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 9:22 am
Yay I’m famous.
And oops, i forgot to send u a pic when i got home. I’m so absent-minded i’d forget my own head if it weren’t attached. -slaps myself-.
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 9:24 am
Michael: They’re better be TV in space! Otherwise I’m gonna slingshot myself around the sun and come back to present day.
ScottieC: So much cyber-stalking was required for this. There should be a warrant out for my arrest.
Howard: Perhaps you’re drinking a cream soda?
Dave S: Joemo is one of my faves too. Clearly I made him my personal yeoman.
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 9:24 am
OhmiGOD! the time involved in this! LOVED the Richard Parker cameo! hope he doesn’t eat Ryan’s cupcake! Who knew I could look so cool without glasses? And YAY Michelle M.s there too! So after the anal probing, we’ll all sing songs from The Sound Of Music!
Great job, Craiggers! Truly genius! you, sir, are amazing!
HUGS….
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 9:25 am
Craiggers: we ALL want a Joemo to be our personal yeoman!
HUGS…
By GoKitty, May 26, 2009 @ 9:37 am
holodeck sex club? ME? But I’m a prude!
By JP, May 26, 2009 @ 9:37 am
Gah!! These are pretty incredible. Great job!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 9:43 am
Okay, that’s the one thing that totally threw me with this — GoKitty’s a *guy*?!
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 9:46 am
Dave S.: You aren’t alone with that!
And for the record: Avitribble is hysterical!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 9:59 am
john: All this time, I’ve been picturing GoKitty as a bubbly petite blonde…
By GoKitty, May 26, 2009 @ 10:01 am
what? I butched up Hello Kitty with some crossbones, what do you people want?
By People in the Sun, May 26, 2009 @ 10:03 am
Man! It’s like looking in the mirror!
Thanks!
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 10:19 am
I should get brownie points. I knew GoKitty was a boy. You people have to pay attention when people post. Clues are given.
*Tam – cyber stalker extraordinaire*
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 10:23 am
Looking back at this, the Joemo bulge, and Dave S.’s abs are awesome!
wha, wha, wha, WHAT??? GoKitty’s a GUY?!?!?!?! My God, who knew?
And my inner Trek geek will not allow this to go unsaid, the Holodeck and the poker games were in the Next Gen, while the uniforms and the lay out were from the original series! I was confused by this, until I realized in this all new, all different yet somewhat the same Trek Universe just created, I suppose ANYTHING is possible! Even a Starship Puntabulous.
Course, then again, ME as a doctor is pretty unrealistic as well.
Man, everytime I look back at this I see something new and giggling like a schoolgirl!
HUGS…
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 10:24 am
Polt: Oh, please — as if you never wanted to play doctor…
By Brian, May 26, 2009 @ 10:37 am
This is so frakin’ rad. You just made my day, and I suspect everyone else’s too.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 10:38 am
Oooh. I even get a part with a line! And Fdot looks hot in MsPaint. Maybe I should give him private lessons
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 10:46 am
Polt: I just KNEW you were going to comment on the inconsistency between the series!
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 10:51 am
Soo Cool! If I’m ever sent on an Away Mission, Would you please let me be ass-imilated by the Borg. The thought of being killed by some salt sucking creature just creeps me out.
By -jeff, May 26, 2009 @ 10:56 am
Just wondering… am I the one saying “Oh Baby”? Because I’m down to watch aliens have sex on a platform. I’ll even tip if necessary.
I can’t wait for more of this series. I’ve always wanted to be part of an MSPaint cartoon on the internetwebs.
-jeff(jsbn)
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 10:58 am
awww
I thought that was my line David, ok, so I’m at the strip club, must be called 10″ Forward
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 10:59 am
-jeff: No, sorry. You’re in the shuttlecraft bay, third from the left.
Paul: You’re the one in the shuttlecraft bay pointing out FDot’s error.
David from Brazil: You’re in the front left in the strip club. Green eyes. Sorry, no line though
By GoKitty, May 26, 2009 @ 11:08 am
What do the different uniform colors mean?? I watched TNG but i dont remember the colors except blue being medical.
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 11:11 am
Avitribble? BWAHAHA! That was great! I can’t believe you managed to get so many people in there (that’s what she said). Awesome job! I don’t mind the red shirt, if I have to “go down” and “take one for the team” then I am your man
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 11:13 am
Next Gen Colors:
Red = Command
Blue = Science
Gold= Operations
TOS Colors:
Green (appeared Gold on Camera)= Command
Blue = Science
Red = Operations
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 11:15 am
How would you tip a Star Trek stripper? Since they don’t have bills, would you just swipe for a debit? And where would you swipe…? Hmm…
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 11:15 am
Go Kitty: No offense, I never thought about it much until today. So is that a soul patch or a piercing under your lip? Oh, and I thought the crossbones were goth or pirate rather than butch.
I took me a while to figure out Fdot was in BSG clothes and not dressed like a leather daddy.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 11:23 am
Sniff. I need a distinguishing feature to be a proper Mspaint doll. Hmmm. I do own 2 couples of a bird called….-goes to check google for English name- or what the heck, its a small cockatoo. hehe – snicker-. Cock-a-too. So there ya go. If i ever make another appearance u can just splash a circle with a crest on my shoulder. Then I’ll be rich, famous and have lots of nubile young naked men serving me. ahahahah. And then i wake up . sigh.
By FDot, May 26, 2009 @ 11:24 am
john: I save that for Saturday nights. Just me and my harness.
I own one of the Chief’s outfits from BSG, so Craig was probably taking his cue from that.
The computer I’m using at tutoring isn’t giving me the greatest resolution for the picture of everyone, so I’ll have to wait a bit to see how many I spotted correctly.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 11:24 am
Well, it’s actually more like 1 couple, the other male is a fetishist and has no interest in the other birds, and the “spare” female keeps hitting on the married male bird who totally ignores her.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 11:27 am
This is awesome, Craig. How many different colors of eyes do people have?
Also, I’m surprised that you invited your parents to a strip/sex club. I’d be mortified.
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 11:34 am
Dave S.: Playing doctor is a lot different from being a doctor…although I’m not above pretending to BE a doctor so I can then PLAY doctor.
Craiggers: Dammit! Why am I SO predictable???
FDot’s in a BSG uniform? I too thought he was some kinda leather daddy, which really surprised me, cause I had no idea he was into that stuff…which apparently he isnt.
Mark: Ass-ilimiated..teehee….Just relax and take it like a man, resistance is futile.
Paul: 10″ Forward BWAHAHAHA!!! Love it! I’m totally naming my night club that! And it’ll have a Star Trek theme! if I ever own a night club…..
HUGS…
By Jonah, May 26, 2009 @ 11:42 am
Craig, please let me chop all of Dave S’s hair off in one of the episodes, or let me give him a serious mullet that only he could look in the mirror at all day long…
By joemosexual, May 26, 2009 @ 11:52 am
HEY it’s not a dress….those are my short shorts!
and craig i appreciate you accurately depicting my bulge.
By -jeff, May 26, 2009 @ 11:59 am
Dave S.: Swipe family guy style right down the crack. lol. That or maybe you can just give him/her the ole’ anal probe if you know what I mean.
-jeff
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:02 pm
GIR is actually hiding in the cupcake.
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 12:04 pm
Jonah: I’m sensing some potential pigtail-pulling.
jeff: Swiping the crack is fine as long as they have an indicator sticker on their right cheek that tells you which direction the strip is supposed to go…
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 12:04 pm
Stripe. I meant stripe…
By Javi, May 26, 2009 @ 12:07 pm
Haha this is AWESOME.
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 12:08 pm
Craig: “They are” better be TV in space????
OK, I am a victim of typing too fast also. I just wanted to be an asshole. But a warm, receptive, loving asshole.
Note To Self: stick with shut-up plan!
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:11 pm
We can get TV in space by going an appropriate number of lightyears away and recording. We might even be able to crack satellite signals and get HBO.
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 12:11 pm
M Nico: That comment of yours just makes it even more appropriate that you’re in the Holodeck Sex Club!
FDot is in BSG gear because I helped get him hooked on the show.
Ryan: What’s GIR?
Sorry Joemo: It’s a dress.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:15 pm
Thank god someone explained FDot’s outfit. I didn’t want to ask. You look great though hon.
Lots of great comments today, Mark, Paul, David. Nice dream too David, I’ve had it myself.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:16 pm
He’s holding the cupcake. He once spent the beginning of an episode in a turkey:

By joemosexual, May 26, 2009 @ 12:17 pm
awwwwwww man……..
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 12:19 pm
Craiggers: GIR is the cute little insane robot-in-a-dog-suit that you see holding a cupcake in The Ryan with the Cupcake’s avatar.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:19 pm
I would think the strippers would have a pouch for Gold Pressed Latinum
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 12:20 pm
I think Jomoe’s uniform would be more accurately described as a skirt, and not a dress. I’m not a fashionista, so I very could be wrong here, but I was rather certain they were a two piece skirt and top combo and not a one piece dress. But them, what do I know about skirts anyway?
HUGS…
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 12:20 pm
Tam: Can you transport me to Canadaland?
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 12:24 pm
Paul: Gold pressed latinum! Man I wish I’da remembered that!
And if I gotta have an insane little robot dog thingee, I’d take K9 from Doctor Who.
HUGS…
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:24 pm
Polt: If basing Joe’s outfit on the original series, it was definitely a dress as you can see here.
http://www.costumecostumecostume.com/Uhura.jpg
And I’m sure in the future all strippers/sex show performers have some kind of built in chip. You just wave your card over their elbow (or whatever part) and the money is delivered to their account.
Paul: Did they ever SHOW gold pressed latinum? What did it look like? I could google it but I’m being lazy.
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 12:24 pm
Mark: Oh only if she COULD! Man I’d be in Toronto every frakin’ weekend!!!
HUGS…
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:26 pm
Tam it looked like a small gold wrapped chocolate bar
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:27 pm
Jomo’s uniform style is called a “skant”
http://www.st-spike.org/pages/uniforms/2351-2365/uniforms.htm
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:28 pm
Mark: Canadaland? Do you mean the Canada pavillion at Disney where you can watch the RCMP musical ride in 360degrees, over and over and over? Much more fun than the real thing likely. Hot Mounties on horses. Yum.
Or my living room. Tidy up when you get there will ya? We’ll order pizza later.
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 12:28 pm
Tam: yes they do show gold pressed latinum in the series, I remember it mostly from DS9 as Quark (sp?) often handles it. It looks like small rectangles of gold.
By joemosexual, May 26, 2009 @ 12:29 pm
what if it’s a spandex unitard……for when i’m battling hostile alien races with my amazing gymnastic abilities…..
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 12:30 pm
Joemo: It’s ok, apparently you are filling the dress out just fine.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:30 pm
no one should have to wear anything with the word “tard” in it, even in the future
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 12:31 pm
Darn! I am 0 for two in getting my comments in before someone else. I really need to start ignoring people coming into my office asking for help and concentrate on what is really important!
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:31 pm
Paul: I don’t remember seeing any guys (save for Joe) in a skant and no pants. Or are they more like a skort? And still, why would a guy (except Joe) wear a skort? With short boots? PLEASE! Call a spade a spade, its a mini-dress.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:35 pm
only shown in 2 episodes – Encounter at Farpoint and All Good things first and last episodes, a tall dark haired man with nice legs walking in the corridor, on a personal note I really need a date
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:41 pm
Paul: With a guy wearing a skant? Good luck with that.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:42 pm
Joe is just wearing the dress uniform from TNG:
http://www.aferj.adm.br/tng3.jpg
He’s just not wearing pants.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:43 pm
I’ll settle for a night shirt
By joemosexual, May 26, 2009 @ 12:45 pm
at least let it be a skort or something so my balls aren’t hanging out there….
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 12:45 pm
I don’t know looks more like this to me:
http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/File:Man_in_a_skant.jpg
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:45 pm
I see everyone had the same idea.
Polt: K-9 is busy in a dimensional thingy-mic-bob.
Yes, I watch cBBC.
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 12:46 pm
Joemo: No one said you weren’t wearing underwear….
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 12:47 pm
So….many…comments…and…so….fast!
FDot: You and the harness? Now where did I put that Unicorn Chaser?
Joemo: Unlike your St. Patrick’s Day outfit?
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 12:49 pm
Tam: I’ll tidy up your living room as long as there are RCMP dressed in shirtless Camo lying around. And I’ll pay for the pizza
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 12:49 pm
joemosexual: Whatever your position is on the Starship Puntabulous, it requires easy access to your balls. I’m sure someone here will figure out why.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:50 pm
John: You’ve developed a stutter.
Yep, definitely a skant as per Paul’s picture.
Joe: I’m sure its like a figure skating outfit, with the matching panties/manties underneath. Lets you do those high kicks without worrying about the breeze.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:51 pm
Okay, there WERE two comments from John. I’m sure. Or I’m going crazy.
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 12:53 pm
Tam: There were. I deleted the extra like a good little chatroom moderator
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 12:53 pm
Ryan: I’m confuzzled, It’s a starship, not a teabag….*confused look*….
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:57 pm
Mark: If there were two shirtless RCMP in my living room I would be there tidying up myself. How about two lazy cats and a psychotic rabbit?
Oh and Mounties don’t wear camo, they wear those pants with the giant hips. Why? No idea. Ancient Canadian fertility thing maybe.
http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/unif/images/bre-cul-front-avant.jpg
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 12:57 pm
Craig: You’re one step ahead of us all.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 1:01 pm
Mark: Maybe Romulans are vulnerable to teabagging.
By joemosexual, May 26, 2009 @ 1:01 pm
ok but they’d better be manly underwear….
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 1:03 pm
That’s gotta be the fastest we’ve ever gotten to 100 comments.
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 1:07 pm
Tam: For some reason I’ve never been concerned with fertility issues. Go figure?
I just look at the pants like Russian nesting eggs. Eventually you open up the prize.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 1:07 pm
Now I’m curious. What will be the future of underwear. If you compare today to 100 years ago, its miraculous. Maybe we’ll just have some kind of spray on undies that you shower off and you are fresh everyday. I should work on that invention. I’m sure someone here remember some episode where someone was in their underwear. There’s probably a website devoted to it. Sigh.
Craig: More Star Trek posts and we’ll work on beating the record. And we mostly stayed on topic.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 1:09 pm
Ryan I don’t know about Romulans but I am
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 1:11 pm
Paul: Now I know your weakness, you will be ass-imilated, resistance is futile!!!!
Or so Polt tells me.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 1:13 pm
Beware I may have Janewy’s Neurolitic Pathogen.
I will never submit to ass-imilation
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 1:18 pm
Paul: LOL (about not knowing about the Romulans)
Tam: Manties! I love it! Oh, and are you sure your rabbit isn’t just misunderstood? I did have 2 comments, I’m glad Craig kept the one with the correct spelling.
Joemo: I’m thinking boxer briefs. Though it that outfit, only a thong will avoid VPL in the back while providing all the VPL in the front you want.
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 1:20 pm
Oh my GOD…so many comment sooo fast… we’re commenting at like Warp 7 or something!
HUGS…
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 1:23 pm
I prefer the though of Joemo in an underwearless skant. Although, according the censor bars, both Craiggers and Enrickyricardo would be unable to wear them, as they’d then have their naughty bits dangling beneath the uniform.
Or at least they would in my dreams…right before the ass-ilmiation of Mark and Paul but after the Romulan teabagging.
Can’t wait to see THAT episode….
HUGS…
By polt, May 26, 2009 @ 1:25 pm
Ohohohohoh…and then since I’m the doctor, I’d get to treat Captain Craiggers and Ensignrickyricardo for carpet burn on their dangling…appendages!! Suh-WEET!
HUGS…
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 1:26 pm
Just remeber to never teabag a Klingon, the ridges you know…………..ouch!
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 1:29 pm
Paul: Damn Seven of Nine!!!!
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 1:35 pm
I know her Boobs were big and perky, but trust me. I know nanoprobe enhanced boobs when I see them.
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 1:40 pm
Holy crap — I leave to go to the gym, come back, and I’ll be damned if I’ve missed Joemo underwearless, Polt doctoring genitalia, and shirtless, pizza-eating RCMPs.
Damn, I gotta stop working out during lunch…
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 1:44 pm
Mark: Mmmm, Seven of Nine, I wonder how good Eight and Nine of Nine looked…. Oh and totally nanobot enhanced.
By Mark, May 26, 2009 @ 1:46 pm
Dave: You don’t have to workout during lunch, just keep working out.
Tam: I just saw the California Supreme Court ruling on Prop 8. Now I’m coming to Canadaland for reals!!!
I’m gettin too serious, going to bed now.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 1:48 pm
Paul: I guess we know what to do if you get possessed by an evil alien entity.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 1:49 pm
Mark: We can vote again next year.
By Chris, May 26, 2009 @ 1:52 pm
Great post Craig, just hope I managed to come back from that away mission…
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 1:52 pm
yes, we make that episode 1!
“Encounter at Ballpoint”
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:05 pm
Paul: Brilliant! lol
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 2:10 pm
Paul: I considered Klingons instead of Romulans, but I seem to remember them having sharp, pointy teeth.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 2:12 pm
You are on a total roll today Paul. Keep it up.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 2:13 pm
Ryan: But I had such a thing for Worf once he let his hair grow out. Alpha all the way baby. Growwwl.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 2:15 pm
Paul: Have you been holding out on us? I’m dying here of laughter.
Mark: Michelle M. and Cupcake excluded: Stoopid California.
Cupcake: My original thought that with Klingons it might be better to receive than give, but then I realized the race we were talking about.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 2:18 pm
Beware of the Klingons, you never know what else may have ridges, and I’m not talking potato chips here!
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 2:22 pm
Paul: Ummm, you just made Worf MORE apealling. Mmmm …. ridges.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 2:22 pm
Paul: Ridged for her pleasure?
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:23 pm
Gives a whole new meaning to “ribbed for pleasure”…
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:23 pm
DAMNit!! I wasn’t quick enough.
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:25 pm
Ryan, yours was funnier anyhow.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 2:32 pm
ok. guys, don’t say I didn’t warn you when you are bleeding from the cheek, and other places.
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:35 pm
Paul: Okay, now all I can picture is SE7EN…
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 2:36 pm
Is it me or do Klingon names sound like the sounds the mother makes during morning sickness? Wooooorrrrrfff.
By Michelle, May 26, 2009 @ 2:48 pm
This is completely awesome! I always wanted to be a part of the Star Trek crew. Thanks for making that dream come true.
I can’t wait to see the further adventures!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 2:50 pm
I always thought the name “Worf” was rather feminine sounding compared to the other Klingon names, which are typically more gutteral. I just can’t help but think of the sound a pigeon’s wings make when they take off: “worf-worf-worf-worf…”
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 2:57 pm
Stop mocking Worf, he was hot. He was raised by humans, they probably changed it.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 3:00 pm
Tam: How many people named Worf do you know? And hey, it is better than the Vulcan naming convention of tossing silverware across the room: t’ping, t’pang, t’pau! T’pau! That’s it!
By Dave S., May 26, 2009 @ 3:07 pm
john: ROFL Holy shit, that was funny…!
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 3:08 pm
Sidenote: Pau = Dick in Portuguese. I could never take that name seriously
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 3:10 pm
suddenly I feel the need to drop the ‘l’ from my name
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 3:11 pm
John: Funny.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 3:15 pm
David from Brazil: Isn’t that the Portuguese word for bread?
Paul: At the very least you need to throw a ‘ in there.
Dave S.: Thanks! I try. Plus, t’ping, t’pang, t’pau has a nice ring to it. Hell, even spock! sounds like a knife hitting the floor.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 3:22 pm
No. Bread is Pão. Slightly different pronounciation too. Pau is spoken kinda like “Pow” and Pão is hmm. Hard to explain because the nasal sound from the ã doesn’t rlly exist in English. More like.. Pawn.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 3:24 pm
john: Now you know why Brazilian waiters give you weird looks when you request bread.
By Samuel, May 26, 2009 @ 3:25 pm
Oh Craig, thank you for including me! I know I am new but now I feel loved!
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 3:26 pm
LOL! @ Ryan
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 3:26 pm
lol, Ryan you are my new favorite “crewmember”
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 3:38 pm
David From Brazil: OK, it is a u vs. an o at the end and the tilde over the ã. I know the sound that makes.
Cupcake: I’ve never been to Brazil
But, that was funny!
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 3:58 pm
I am suggesting the following as the design for the USS Puntabulous – NCC-696969:
http://en.hiddenfrontier.com/index.php/File:ExcelRefit.jpg
The additional “pod” on the back would be required for all the “additional personell activity areas” and can be swapped out for a new one when different areas are needed or the thing just gets too funky to go into.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 3:59 pm
John: Reading that sentence a few times gave me a headache. And I bet you know exactly the sound “that” makes.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 4:00 pm
Pau’l: What is your avatar?
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 4:01 pm
You guys are so making my crappy day better.
Gotta run though, bazillion things to do tonight.
By TwoPi, May 26, 2009 @ 4:02 pm
I dinna ken how Craig did all this fantastic work over the weekend! I look forward to the Puntabulous and her crew as they boldly go…
In the HSC, which of those are real, and which computer generated? Can you program a holodeck to simulate a holodeck? (Forgive me if this was already covered in TNG.)
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 4:03 pm
ok that made no sense. Anyway, you’re welcome to come order some bread in Brazil. You’re likely to succeed, people love sexy foreigners with an accent. Works even better if you’re rich, but you can get by on pretending too.
By TwoPi, May 26, 2009 @ 4:03 pm
Isn’t Paul’s avatar from the pilot of TOS? I forget that species’ name….
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 4:06 pm
A Talosian wearing sunglasses, a peace medallion, and holding a bong
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 4:09 pm
David from Brazil: I thought the word for bread was spelled pau, not pao. I should have said that.
As for the waiters’ reactions to me in Brazil, you assume I am sexy. I’m also not rich and can’t really act. I do have an accent though.
By David from Brazil, May 26, 2009 @ 4:11 pm
I assume everyone is sexy unless confronted by undeniable evidence in the contrary. Makes for a better Internet experience.
By john, May 26, 2009 @ 4:34 pm
David from Brazil: In that case, I’m gorgeous!
By Hayden, May 26, 2009 @ 4:36 pm
Craig: How the hell did you know what I look like?
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 4:36 pm
I go to lunch and find another ten responses.
I think that this just shows that we are vain.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 4:38 pm
sorry, I look like the business end of a Targ, now figure out what a Targ is and what end is the business end.
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 4:39 pm
Hayden: Magic!
By Xi_Heather, May 26, 2009 @ 4:45 pm
This is a fantastic post. What I love is just HOW MANY people there are about the Starship Puntabulous. That’s amazing.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 4:58 pm
the opening credits will be 20 minutes long!
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 5:00 pm
Seriously, I just kept scrolling through the comment pages being like “Oh, I have to include [name]! I love them!” And the list just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 5:04 pm
that’s what she said! sorry couoldn’t resist, guess resistance is futile
By Avitable, May 26, 2009 @ 5:10 pm
Don’t Tribbles self-replicate? If I could do that, there’d totally be an Avita-orgy.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 5:11 pm
Avitable: Like tribbles, E. coli can be born pregnant.
By Paul, May 26, 2009 @ 5:11 pm
I think they were “born pregnant”, but still a nice thought
By Avitable, May 26, 2009 @ 5:13 pm
Oh, is that how it works? I’ve never seen an episode of Star Trek, so I was just guessing. I don’t think I was born pregnant. Unless it’s with a food baby.
By Polt, May 26, 2009 @ 5:17 pm
Avitable, only you’d come up with that!
Self love much?
Stupid Internet blocker at work, everything was fine until mid-afternoon when they suddenly started blocking Puntabulous altogether. bastards. Musta been the Klingon ridges….
Awesome post! nearly as awesome batch of comments!
HUGS..
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 5:27 pm
polt: I blame our teabagging.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 5:37 pm
Weren’t the Talosian’s the ones who beat up Kirk and made that girl heal him to see if she could be redeemed? Or do I have them mixed up with someone else?
By Enrico, May 26, 2009 @ 5:40 pm
Hurray! I made the flight crew! Sweet.
And Richard Parker is there to help me out (aka do all the work)!
I knew Dave S., Tam, and Jere right away. Somehow I missed Polt.
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 5:42 pm
TRWTC: lol!
Paul: Resistance is futile if < 1ohm. Sorry, my inner electrical engineering geek just had to throw that one in
By M. Nicodemus, May 26, 2009 @ 5:48 pm
Enrico: do you think Richard Parker could use his fabulous designer skills to add some flair to Joemo’s skant? That thing is soo last generation
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 5:50 pm
Nico: Funny and great idea. RP was a designing genius.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 6:06 pm
Joemo needs more lightning bolt.
By Michelle M., May 26, 2009 @ 6:56 pm
Umm – you people do know Polt’s not really a doctor, right? Dr. D. and I just like to humor him. If you really need/want a probe, please see Dr. Richard Parker in Sickbay.
By David, May 26, 2009 @ 7:16 pm
Polt is not a real doctor, he just plays (with) one on TV.
By Tam, May 26, 2009 @ 7:26 pm
Michelle: That’s awful, funny but awful. Damn. John, I need a double dose of that Unicorn Chaser now.
By Polt, May 26, 2009 @ 7:35 pm
Tam: the Talosians were in the pilot, the ones that capture Captain Pike and put him in a zoo.
Cupcake: It all starts with the teabagging, doesn’t it?
Enrickyricardo: It’s cause I didn’t have my glasses on.
But seriously, I’m the only freakin’ redhead on the whole starship, how could you miss me?
Nice and Michelle M: Loved both the Richard Parker suggestions, although one of them made me feel a little dirty
David: If only it were true.
Craiggers: Hey, how come the female Orion dancer made it onto the poster but the male Orion dancer did not?
HUGS…
By Enrico, May 26, 2009 @ 7:38 pm
Oh, Richard Parker is the designing genius? I am the one who made it to the finale (which I’m blogging right now… taking a while).
And Ryan w/ the Cupcake is right–it just needs more lightning bolt. Or an Aretha-inspired bow.
By TwoPi, May 26, 2009 @ 7:50 pm
Short shameful confession: if it wasn’t for “Pecker”, I’d have no idea what “teabagging” is.
I’ve learned so much from John Waters.
By ExAstrisScientia, May 26, 2009 @ 8:09 pm
TwoPi – I loved that movie!
Polt – I love Redheads too!
By Polt, May 26, 2009 @ 8:10 pm
Haven’t we all, TwoPi? Haven’t we all?
HUGS…
By Michelle M., May 26, 2009 @ 8:48 pm
I found this quote from Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. It probably applies to the USS Puntabulous as well:
Montgomery Scott: [voiceover]: USS Enterprise, shakedown crew’s report. I think this new ship was put together by monkeys. Oh, she’s got a fine engine, but half the doors won’t open, and guess whose job it is to make it right.
By Enrico, May 26, 2009 @ 8:50 pm
Adam (SCG) just pointed out to me that I look thinner than the others…..
Craig! You totally used a female build for me, didn’t you?!?!
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 26, 2009 @ 9:04 pm
Enrico: I found the message the hacker sent with your Twitter account hilarious because it didn’t fit you at all.
By adam, May 26, 2009 @ 9:13 pm
hahahaha Enrico is just a tiny bit thinner than the rest … just like in real life. Craig, this is awesome! Thanks for including me!!
By Michelle M., May 26, 2009 @ 9:40 pm
Does Enrico make my butt look big?
By Polt, May 26, 2009 @ 9:57 pm
Enrickyricardo makes EVERYONE’s butt look big. And their hips, and thighs, and stomach and…well everything. Well, considering his censor bar, probably not EVERYthing….
HUGS…
By Polt, May 26, 2009 @ 9:58 pm
Oh, and thank GOD Craiggers didn’t expand our puntabucharacter to match our size!!! Making Enrickyricardo thin, funny! Making Polt life sized…scary.
HUGS…
By Craig, May 26, 2009 @ 10:11 pm
Enrico: LOL! No, I didn’t use the girl template, but I did make yours a bit thinner. Your’s was the only one I adjusted.
By Ray, May 26, 2009 @ 10:34 pm
Ray is very happy to be coherent and standing on two feet, although he’s wondering where the bar compartment is…
These are fantasmic, Craig!
By Chris D., May 26, 2009 @ 11:19 pm
Amazing! I am totally impressed. Thanks for including me, even though my commenting is not as strong as it used to be.
I can’t believe how you featured so many people. No wonder your dancing monkeys love you so much. I look forward to new cartoon stories.
BTW: I miss the photo essays featuring you with your “wife”. One of those was the first post I saw when I first found your blog.
By jere, May 26, 2009 @ 11:38 pm
I’m very late to the party today, but I’m glad to be in engineering. All the coolest stuff happens down there… as long as I don’t de-evolve into some kind of spider creature like Barclay.
By chamblee54, May 26, 2009 @ 11:54 pm
It is still not midnight, so it is not too late to say thank you for the lovely image.Do you think I could get any action if i used that as a profile picture?
By Enrico, May 27, 2009 @ 1:14 am
Sure, sure. I’m not blind. Clearly a girl template. lol.
Ryan w/ Cupcake: I know! That was an ironic tweet. But wait, you follow me on Twitter?? Am I following you??
By Dave S., May 27, 2009 @ 7:20 am
We actually hit 200, thanks to chamblee54.
By Craig, May 27, 2009 @ 7:34 am
Since none of you guys mentioned it (someone on Twitter picked up on it though) the line spoken in the poker frame is the last line in the Next Generation series.
By Tam, May 27, 2009 @ 7:39 am
Craig: You’re just too esoteric for us.
By polt, May 27, 2009 @ 8:19 am
Craiggers, I recognized the line, but I thought I had fill my Trek Geek quota with my quibbles about the mixing of the generations.
I just reread it again, and laughed still. This is awesome.
HUGS…
By Craig, May 27, 2009 @ 9:44 am
Enrico: Look at the shoulders. You’re definitely the boy template. Albeit a slightly skinnier version
By Kári, May 27, 2009 @ 9:55 am
Yay! I’m next to the Avitribble!
By Sven, May 27, 2009 @ 10:01 am
Aloow me to simply say ‘awesome’ and be done.
By The Ryan with the Cupcake, May 27, 2009 @ 10:16 am
Enrico: I don’t have a Twitter account. I just use the RSS feed.
By josh, May 27, 2009 @ 11:02 pm
i am so flattered you would include me! lovez it!
By Craig, May 27, 2009 @ 11:06 pm
Josh: You even got a line!
By josh, May 27, 2009 @ 11:08 pm
It’s soooo like me to use an expletive! I have such a filthy potty mouth.
By goblinbox, May 28, 2009 @ 8:22 pm
This is the coolest blog post on the entire Intarwebz.
And can you plz make me a purple suit like Vuboq’s and mail it to me? I’ve had a bad day and a purple outfit with a jaunty hat would really help.
