I had started to use real Scotty before remembering that TAS Scotty exists. I can't decide if it makes Homer Montgomery Scott more or less cursed though.

Remember that part in Star Trek The Motion Picture when two people got horrifically melted by a transporter accident right in front of Kirk, and then like five minutes later Kirk was giving Bones shit for not wanting to use a transporter?

I'm fully on team Bones about this. He's committed to not using them. Like when he cameos in TNG and refuses to transport, so they have to pick him up in a shuttlecraft.

Oh, the holodeck? Yeah we have this thing for fun, and it has only tried to murder us and take over the ship a handful of times.

Say what you want about Quark, he does have the best holosuites in the quadrant. Never tried to kill its occupants.
