worf's mok'bara class probably did more for the enterprise crew's mental health than troi did
My struggle... Is heroic 😮

I never want to be mentally healthy now
- Then you have already lost, and are without honor.
  
  I don't need to fight the demons if I can become them! I'll show you all!
- Counterpoint, defeating a seemingly undefeatable enemy is even more heroic.
  
  Also, a fight that you are not trying to win is not an honorable fight.
  
  Counterpoint, my self care regimen involves regular screaming rants that culminate in spirited slogans like "I'll show you all"
Klingon Warrior: Growing crops isn't a battle!

Klingon Farmer: I thought that once, but then the tribbles arrived.
- I am just infatuated with the lawyer Klingon from an episode of DS9. And there is also art and music in Klingon culture which begs the question: How do you relate everything in a society back to being warriors and turning everything into a battle worthy of a Klingon?
  
  There's an episode where someone ends up on a klingon farming world (I entierly forget the character and series) and the takeaway is that klingons basically have a warrior caste that are really the only ones the federation has encountered up to that point. The rest of the klingons respect their soldiers but aren't really into the same dogma.
  
  What about Kolos, the advocate from ENT?
  
  I guess if it's a state of mind, then everything can be viewed as a battle.
  
  Today I wage war on THE LAUNDRY PILE!
  
  I, skilled strategist that I am, sit at my war desk and prepare my tactics. This year, I shall pay FAR LESS TAXES!
  
  Today is a good day to dye my hair etc...
Pakled therapist:

You are sad.

Being sad is not good. You should not be sad.

Try not being sad.

Did that work? No?

Now I'm sad too.

We are both sad. We need a therapist.
- Pakled to Therapist: You can make us want to go outside?
Should I make a Klingon LLM?
- Uhhhh YES
- I mean probably

  Is it a group of people?
I'd really like to hear Micheal Dorn quote this.
- Sure, but scraggly General Martok gives it the gravitas needed in that moment to Garak, as it's coming from a more seasoned warrior.
  
  Wait, it's a real quote?
This Is great
Klingons were never honobru. They fight like cowards, hiding behing cloaking devices. They backstab each other more than Romulans too. Worf was an anomaly. Essentially, Worf is a Klingon weeb who read about Klingon bushido ideals and propaganda and thought it was true.
