2. "Tea, Early Gray, Hot"

... and what's that in the background!? Tea. Earl Gray. Hot.

Normally this wouldn't be worthy of an entry entirely on its own, but I wanted an excuse to show off a random fact about Star Trek that I really, really enjoy boring people with. Despite how iconic the drink is, despite how big the catchphrase became, despite how much of a defining characteristic it is of Picard himself, and despite the fact there are 178 episodes of Star Trek The Next Generation... he only orders it from a replicator SEVEN times.

Seven. That's it. And he only actually gets it four times. That's a cup of the stuff every 44 and a half episodes. Thanks fro coming to my TED Talk.
