You know these, you've seen them around or you've made up one of your own. Just complete the sentence and try to make us laugh. I'll get started.

You know you're a Trekkie when you randomly say "Computer, end program", just in case you're in a holosuite.

"Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves, that if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, This was their finest hour."

"The quest for the grail is not archeology, it's a race against evil. If it is captured by the Nazis, the armies of darkness will march all over the face of the earth"

Someone offers you a hot drink and you reply "tea, earl grey, hot" or argued with your local Starbucks manager as to why they don't serve Raktajino!

When you HAVE to watch it on TV despite owning the DVDs...

You want to join the navy simply beacuse it's the closest to starfleet you can get
