History VoodooShark / StarTrek

* ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine''' has the episode [[Recap/StarTrekDeepSpaceNineS05E07LetHeWhoIsWithoutSin "Let He Who Is Without Sin"]] where Worf has been acting up during his vacation to Risa (to the point of joining a terrorist group) and the writers decide to explain why Worf is generally such a stick in the mud. He accidentally killed a fellow child by headbutting them while playing Soccer. Not only does this not sufficiently explain why Worf wasn't enjoying his holiday, but it was arguably unneccesary. Worf had grown up idolising Klingons as Stoic Warriors, and only found out that most Klingons didn't live up to that ideal after he'd already joined Starfleet.

** Why do certain ship types, particularly the Klingon bird-of-prey, [[NotDrawnToScale drastically change size]] between a few times larger than a shuttle to a few times larger than the ''Enterprise''? In the case of the [=BoP=], because there are three different-sized ships that otherwise look identical. Never mind that there would almost certainly be serious SquareCubeLaw issues involved, or the fact that logically the crew have to fit inside and reach all parts of the ship, why would a ship designer build a scaled-up or -down but otherwise-indistinguishable exterior when the interior structure and the way it attaches to the exterior would have to be considerably different to accomodate the fact that the ship has more or fewer decks? For that matter, most of the really wonky scale differences involving the Bird of Prey are from ''Film/TheSearchForSpock'' and ''Film/TheVoyageHome'', which involved a single Bird of Prey throughout all their events.
