A question for the Trekkies...

Who was the better Captain? Kirk or Picard?
I'll say Kirk. He took on a Greek God. And won.

6. Kirk

and it's "Trekkers".*


But I love Picard too - going to see him at MegaCon this year - most of the TNG crew will be there.













*lol, I don't really care. I answer to either. I've seen Trekkers take offense though. They'd probably want me to take a purity test.

11. Thanks for the link...

I humbly stand corrected.
I am definitely a Trekker according to the Great Wiki.

18. Depends. If you get all het up over whether someone calls you a Trekkie or a Trekker,

you're a Trekkie.

23. The Difference between a Trekkie and a Trekker

Trekkies call Leonard Nimoy 'Mr. Spock.'

Trekkers call Mr. Spock 'Len'.

15. I liked both but to me Kirk was the more colorful

He was a swashbuckling hero from a pirate movie set in outer space and was never shy about bending the rules.

16. What do you prefer, action or intellect? They were opposites, as were their 2nds, Spock and Riker

Captain Kirk's rashness was tempered by Spock's logic. Picard calmed Rikers' impetousity. Total polar opposites.

I think Picard was a better captain, far more mature-he played chess while Kirk played stud poker.

17. Picard did a much better job of shying away from self-destructing clothing.

I'm surprised Kirk didn't have rent-shaped tan lines on his torso.

The guy would go bat-shit crazy, so you know that as Captain he would fuck you up!

26. But Picard killed the freakin' Borg Queen!

Nevertheless, I gotta go with Kirk, if, for nothing else, the fact the he shamelessly chased alien tail across the galaxy! Remember that hot green chick? Kirk nailed her.
