It's because we don't have a style of music called "Jizz."

kinda makes sense to me

one is an attempt at a hopeful, logical view of humanities future.. the other has laser swords and magic.

The Expanse: space will always try to kill you, humanity still sucks, everything still hurts, everything is still dirty.
- Far superior option. Mostly because it has real space physics with minimal hand waving.
One is a broad base for story telling, the other is one long story about how a single family and their granddad's hetro-lifemate can fuck over an entire galaxy,
And politics, and wealth disparity, so basically the opposite of a utopia.
the other has laser swords and magic.

And it always sucks no matter who wins.
Magic

Laser Sword
- But they're mostly right about the hopeful part. When it isn't shown that the Federation is super corrupt and being controlled by evil outside forces, of course.
- That article about magic talks about religious ritual and advanced technology. No actual magic, except in one alternative universe.

I have never watched even a single episode of Star Trek, but I like you guys for your memes.

Okay, call off the mob!
- Nah, just convert it into a party!?:-P🥳🎉
- The mob is carrying DVD copies of DS9 ... the dogs are strays they found along the way and they're taking care of them ... the torches are there because they drained the batteries on their smartphones downloading 'Wrath Of Khan' for you to watch.
- If I don't click it, the mob looks like a disco ball on my phone.
Start with Star Trek: The Next Generation, and move on from there. The first season has some quirks, but by the second it's solid gold.
- I started watching TNG just recently and am nearly done with season 2. Season 1 is not nearly as bad as the internet led me to believe, and honestly I kinda miss some things from it a little bit.
Well, there’s a bit of everything in the fandom. What sort of series and movies do you like? I’m sure we’ll be stumbling to recommend you specific episodes Abe possibly even a movie or two.

(TBH I don’t care much for the movies, expect for the Kelvin timeline, for which I’m sure I’ll burn at the stake.)

One preaches hope for a better future.

One preaches a never ending cycle of ambition, corruption, and cruelty.

Who would have ever thought time would prove Star Wars more thematically realistic 😂

Star Wars was based on the past but set in the future. They borrowed "stormtroopers" from Hitler. The space battles are just like WWII dogfights. Star Wars was never looking forward it was looking backwards.
- With that logic, Star Trek is the same.
  
  It is based upon submarine life. Even going as far as using the boatswain whistle and radar sounds at the controls.

Are you sure Riker doesn’t perform jizz?

Riker got that taken care of before even joining the academy.
- All crew report for mandatory jizz-ectomy
There is no sound tho

StarTrek all the way, actual REAL peaceful space communists or religious Knights with magic powers? That's not a hard choice

Everyone thinks I'm super into star wars cause I enjoy building Lego space ships and star wars is the option in that regard. Mind you I've just noticed a Chinese brick company have dropped a giant Enterprise and there's a Rocinante on the way too!
- Does it come with a LEGO man polycule???
- Link please
Space explorers ... or ... authoritarian space soldiers fighting religious space fanatics
Why does it feel like this comment section is assuming someones values based on their enjoyment of works of fiction haha

I like both for different reasons. And I don't think that really says much about my values at all

It's entertainment, people!

Especially this one:

Either you're into Star Trek and understand the self-burn vibes here or it's just a random not-overly-nerdy shirt.

I just applied for my UK passport and the photo I gave to them was me in a red T-shirt with the TOS delta on it. I'm guessing the delta will be cropped out, but here's hoping.
It's a Tom Scott reference with a funny triangle

When people conjure mental male representation of Star Wars, they think of fat neckbeard Lucas and the lizard. When they think of Star Trek, they imagine sly silver fox Picard and Datas most probable mechanical prowess.

This tracks.

Stranger in a Farscape shirt: knows how to party... possible cast or crew member.

did they even bother making farscape shirts when any bdsm attire would work?
- Bdsm under a Hawaiian shirt
Might be a Muppet.
I never pass up a chance, no matter how small, to get my hands on a dose of translator microbes.

I have both tshirts, my trustworthiness also happens to fluctuate wildly based on my apparel.

I have this T-shirt. People have no idea what to do.
- I need that.

stargate shirt

I'd suspect you of having a snake in your belly.

Jizz was first mentioned in canon in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi junior novelization, authored by Ryder Windham and released in 2017.

Oh, then they absolutely knew.

The Return of the Jedi novelization introduced the term "jizz-wailer" to describe a musician, but the term "jizz" as the name of the musical style was not introduced until the publication of Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, twelve years later.

The original RotJ novelization was released in 1983. Don't discount Legends!
- Yeah, that unfortunate term has been around forever. I think I first ran across it in a West End Games sourcebook from 1990-ish.

Total stranger in a Stargate T shirt. They probably have way more firepower, and enough C4 to solve all my problems.

Ya like Jizz?

Some of those jizz wailers have some real spunk to play in a dive bar in Mos Eisley

If your interstellar society has slavery, I'm not interested. Didn't the Jedi free Luke and just leave his mom in captivity?

Way too many Star Wars fans like the Empire for my taste. (And the rebels aren't much better, if they're better at all.)

That was Anakin Not his son Luke. And Qui-gon tried to free Shmi as well but Watto was too resilient.
- And when Qui-gon realized he couldn't cheat hard enough for both slaves, he just... didn't try to get the funds together? Come up with some other sort of trade?
Unfortunately the last few pieces of SW media I saw the only interesting characters were imperials.

We don't have a style of music called jizz, because we classify our birds with it instead.

So I could talk about the jizz all over those boobies (or tits) and not have it be NSFW?
- That's how I make it through the dark times.

Star Wars Jizzed right into my ear....

This isn't as funny since Disney renamed it to Jatz

Damn Disney and their cultural appropriation..

That’s our word!
When i saw that i was just hoping so hard that Jatz becomes slang for ass to mouth sex or something.
- Be the change you want to see.

Probably because of the virtues that each fan seem to seek with their choice…

I'm something of a jizz-wailer myself...

-Riker, probably

Sometimes, late at night, the Jizz band starts playing more schmaltzy. Schmaltzy Jizz.

Ew.
- I refuse to apologize.

I've been watching star trek (TNG, DS9, Voyager) and still don't get the red shirt reference. I know it's about them getting killed all the time but I just don't see it.

It's a running gag more than anything. The idea is Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Ensign Smith in a red shirt beam down to the dangerous planet. Who dies?
- Ensign Smith:
- Obviously the one who is not one of the lead actors, whose character usually doesn’t have a name, no lines, never appeared, and is from security and tasked to protect the captain and jump first in combat is going to survive.
They swapped the red and gold job responsibilities between TOS and TNG. In 90s trek, it's the gold shirts dying most often
The meme is from TOS. Not as many people died in the newer ones.

A simple pie chart reveals 55 total deaths and, yes, red shirts perished in frightening numbers. A whopping 24 died, compared to 9 in yellow/gold command and 7 in blue, with 15 crossing into the final frontier in unidentified colors

https://www.startrek.com/news/did-redshirts-really-die-more-often-on-tos
Cause you didn't watch the series the meme is made upon (TES)

TOS. More coffee for me
- The edgy series? The excellent series? The ecstatic series? The evil series? The Elvin series? The e-coli series? The epinephrine series?
  
  :p
  
  I had to.
In TOS, there were more characters in red shirts than any other color. So of course most deaths were characters wearing a red shirt. Proportionally, I believe it was actually yellow with the highest mortality rate.

Well... Star Wars does have a character named Sleazebaggano... So...

This is actually an interesting rabbit hole. I wonder if it's a meme or if Duke Jizzerstein is actually real. They really went hard into this whole jizz thing. There is literally a track on the album "Let's Jizz With the Duke!" called "Gonna Jizz Tonite"

Edit: it has to be fake. There is literally a track called "Spermulation". Also the website is a giveway that it's likely ai generated https://mrpii.online/

Depends. Are they wearing an Empire shirt or a Rebellion shirt?

The Mandalorian showed that didn't matter.

Someone in an Æon Flux shirt.

I wouldn't even talk to them, they'll probably answer in non-sequiturs and then run away giggling and twirling.
