THE PHASERS LOOK LIKE GLUE GUNS. "Don't look yet, but the security detail really went Martha Stewart on that hostile alien lifeform." I had to go to ThinkGeek to figure out that there was a ray-emitting bit that was detachable, and that was what Kirk used in those episodes where he was nuking androids and stuff with a garage door remote. (But garage door remotes hadn't been invented yet, right? I'll stop soon, I promise.)

I KNEW IT. (Was going to be all "had glue guns been invented yet" but yeah, alien costumes.) Probably too late to figure out who has one I could borrow for Halloween. XD;

Oh, sorry. I was joking around and thought it obvious that I was doing so; I have no idea if they were actually glue guns or whether they were used during the sixties although I think it showed up a few decades earlier.

As an aside... is that Yeoman Rand lovingly pouring coffee on the ground? I recognize the Bones / Kirk icon from the post, but the heart on this comment's icon is throwing me off.
