Saturday night rocks!
What is your favorite thing about Saturday night? Or about anything? Or the worst thing? Or anything?
You see, it’s Saturday Night Open Thread and it’s your turn to talk about whatever you want. Something good. Something you don’t like. Or just nonsense. Doesn’t matter. What does matter is that you control the conversation.
What’s on your mind?

Is beaming down in Star Trek a death sentence?
Most discussions of this are strictly idle ponderings. This one goes in depth and examines what the show itself has to say about transporters.

How long will I keep posting their videos? I dunno. This is like the fourth one I’ve posted. They’ve done ten episodes, and will finish the project when the next one wraps.
But, what’s on your mind? What would you like to talk about? This is, after all, your take on IMAO. It’s Friday Night Open Thread.
Who wants to start?
In the Solomon Islands, a new species of giant rat has been discovered which is so strong it can crack open coconuts with its teeth.
It’s an interesting story, but Cary Elwes told me that he doesn’t think they exist.

What is the weirdest thing about America that Americans don’t realise is weird?

Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro called on his nation’s military leaders to prepare for war against the US.
Venezuela? That poverty-pitted socialist wasteland? What are they going to do? Stare at us while we eat and guilt us to death?
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.
To boost their sagging ratings, the NFL…
In Saudi Arabia, women have finally been given legal permission to drive.
Dangerous. Women applying makeup while driving are dangerous enough, can you imagine if they’re trying to put on lipstick under a burka while behind the wheel?
