Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
Follow Bill and Ted's Law: Be excellent to each other.
And keep it in good humor.
Best worst
Pulaski would've been too OP.
Crusher was only terrible to Q, who very much had it coming. And it was funny when she called him a pain in the ass.
Tbf that is the correct way of interacting with Q
This list is missing Polasky. She wouldn't beat the EMH, but she would tear a strip off you if you got injured doing something stupid.
Pulaski also seemed to be high functioning autistic, with researcher abrasive in the mix.
Dr. Tracy Pollard of Discovery and head of Sickbay definitely had snark.
The cat doctor wins on account of being able to swear. But Dr. Culber gets bonus points for sarcastically delivering medical care on occasion.
Not only for being able to swear, but for making liberal use of that privilege
Because he's not listed, Julian.
Yeah, him too. Look, I had 6 spots and several shows to cover. Not to mention his lack of ethics in dating his patients.
Fair enough, I would have given any name that wasn't on the list, I mean, Tom Paris was a doc for a short bit, right? (My collectors plate has it in a footnote)
Field medic with basic training.
Inflammable means flammable? What a starship.
The fact that inflammable and flammable mean the same thing in reality still fucking infuriates me.
Well, if I was deemed a criminal by the act of existing, I wouldn't care a lot about ethics either.
Culber is the real sleeper here because he'll deal stealth emotional damage. That sweet smile, those deep eyes, and then he says the most snarky, sarcastic shit you can imagine given the situation. This is the only way to tame Stamets after all.
He also used peanuts. Turns out I'm part elephant.
Toss up between EMH and T'Ana, really, but I'd say T'Ana has more lovable burnout energy that the crew vibe with, where the EMH is just kind of a dick. I love him, he's one of my favorite characters in all of Trek, but his bedside manner makes him a huge pain in the ass for anyone normal to work with. The people who got along best with him are Seven, who basically had high-functioning autism implants from the Borg, and Kes, who was, by and large, incapable of being mad. Janeway dealt with him fine because she just never took any shit from him as a matter of policy, and the only other person he vibed hard with was a fucking serial killer. Tom Paris, who stands out for being by far the biggest normie on Voyager, couldn't stand the EMH (though he also hated sick bay).
So, gotta go with EMH having the worst bedside manner.
Going to have to agree. He was never intended to need a good bedside manner because he was never supposed to be doing long term patient care. So they never bothered to program it.
He was designed for emergencies: "Do this. Do it now. Moving on."
He can be a bit of a pill.
Autism implants 💀
Voyager's EMH was so awful to deal with that the upgrade path was Andy Dick.
Huh... I just assumed the Andy Dick hologram was so much more pushy that it got the other one deprecated out of pettiness.
At least he didn't delete him by getting Janeway back on cocaine.
I always thought Phlox had the best bedside manner. The EMH is the crankiest I know of but I didn't watch Discovery or Lower Decks.
Phlox could be short with patients who were holding back, but he respected and protected them like no other.
He really went above and beyond for T’pol that one time…
And that time he tried to set Trip up with his wife.
Well, she did fancy him!
I immediately read the words of Dostoyevsky and Karl Marx, and in the words of Albert Schweitzer,
Lower Decks Doctor T'ana is basically a combination of Bines and the EMH with decades of burnout behind her. She's just the best
EMH with ethical subroutines disabled
He has ethical subroutines?????!??
As much as I love my beloved being included in anything, the only person Culber ever has bedside manner around is his husband. Even then it's when his husband is being stubborn as shit. Hugh is super professional. One reason why I asked him to marry me.
Man, Matt and Trey are some of my favorite people on the planet.
Cat doctor from Lower Decks might cough up a hairball inside your phaser wound. On purpose.
Though considering Paul F. Thompkins plays the other doctor (the bird dude), he might be worse. We just never see him doing any doctor shit.
Also: What the hell are their names?! I'm so bad at remembering all the character's names from LD. I only ever remember Boimler's.
Dr.Migleemo is the ship's counselor, so much closer to Troi than Crusher.
Migleemo a' Trois, in 3... 2... 1...

But Julian did find the spots....on Ezri.
