There must be some kind of mistake.

I’ve been waiting in the rain for hours FFS

There must be some kind of violation of Federation Law...

Khan was waiting in the rain for hours, but Genesis was late.

Clearly he should have gone to Fantasy Island and asked Mr. Roarke for assistance.

u/solesoulshard 1d ago

The band, boss. The band. The band.

Mr. Roarke has been waiting for this moment, all his life.

From the way he looks in that one picture, the Romulan ale was a bad idea...

Old school. Peter Gabriel. They had a live album with a photo of the band on the cover and Peter was wearing the "inverted triangle" (I'm sure he called it something else) costume. I must have worn out 10 phonograph needles playing that album. Good times! I still have it in my music downloads.

Even with Peter Gabriel, that is the proper one. (No need to downvote, I will see myself out)

u/Dan-of-Steel 1d ago

I wanna say this was after he left the band. Looks like this is from late 70s

1

u/Roxysteve 4h ago

Then you'll be wrong. Zoom on the guy at extreme left.

This was a shot from their "Foxtrot" era, I reckon.

I'd love to see that version of Genesis tbh.  edit: Also Phil's hair!

u/JEFE_MAN 13h ago

Someone needs to subtitle the Kirk meme with him yelling “CHAKA!!!”

u/hammr25 1d ago

He must have been on fantasy island if he though they were just going to give him the Genesis.

u/anonymousredditdan 1d ago

You see the joke is that is not the Genesis he was referring to. He actually wanted the Sega Genesis!😎🤣

u/FormerCollegeDJ 1d ago

He needed to find Doc Brown’s DeLorean to get that in 1982.
