>>1867562>Why'd my fellow sailors get into this then?I work on a cruise as a mate and get asked this all the time by boomers. I truthfully tell them that I love Star Trek and thought working on the bridge of a ship was as close as I could get to being in Star Trek. They all look at me like I'm retarded. Sometimes they try and follow up with "but surely your family has been in the maritime industry for a while?" and I tell them no, I simply like Star Trek
