YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Therapist: For your next video just rant about something you love, make it like 10 minutes, something you can rattle off in a weekend.

Me, writing ideas down in my wretched little angry diary: Yes, of course.....

=======================

I'd like to thank Paramount/CBS for being so chill with the copyright issues

=======================

In the year of our lord 2371 Sir Benjamin Lafayette "Ben" Sisko, the man who punched God, threatened to punch several other Gods, and then became one himself because the planet of religious nuts who all think beige is a 'spicy' colour realized very quickly who the better option was, decided to commission a flagship for his Holy Crusade across the stars as he pretty much solo'd the entire dominion.

This Chariot would not be like all the other boring and nerdy ships of the StarTrek universe, oh no, there would be no science done here, no totty nurses with Vaseline smeared over the camera to make them look prettier, no whimsical kids in scarfs learning important life lessons. No Sir.

There would only be blood, death, and enough firepower to delete whatever affronted the view of Ben Sisko as he personally pimp slapped the entire galaxy into behaving.

But is this tough "little" ship all its cracked up to be?

Taking a group of diplomats and science nerds used to building plush flying hotels, feeding them enough sugar to drown a horse and letting them off the chain to design a warship of which the only specifications were:

How many Cannons? yes

May have seemed like a good idea at the time, but reality, even TV reality, is not always its cracked up to be.
