“Do you think we can just replicate you some Windex?”
I bet the pattern buffers on DS9 are all chock full of Windex.
He uses the buffer for more than just people he hates/likes. He’s got all sorts of stuff in there. Like all the stuff his wife told him to throw out.
When she makes him eat vegetarian, he goes to work, pulls out a freshly-cooked T-bone steak, and just eats it there in the transporter room. Nobody ever transports that early in the morning.
Not gonna lie: I would absolutely use the pattern buffer as my own personal junk drawer. I’d have a pattern buffer full of those portable pattern buffers from Discovery. Each of those full of random stuff I’d otherwise carry if I could.
“Why, yes, I do need my kayak with me at all times. You never know when you might need that!”
Hell, I’d probably work out how to turn the pattern buffer into a man cave. 😆
Or if I’m ever in a sticky situation, pull a Dale Gribble “Pocket Sand” but with a pattern buffer full of junk that all comes out at once.
It’s like a Bag of Holding!
Love the comics.
Small feedback: could you make the text a little bigger relative to the image? On my tiny phone I have to zoom in to every panel individually to read it.
They are not my comics. I’m publishing them from the source (https://chiefobrienatwork.com/).
Hahaha. I feel dumber than a ferengi who can’t remember the rules of acquisition.
Thanks for your service!
Lock on to all dust aboard the enterprise, then beam into a pattern buffer.
