A 31-year-old man in Edmonton is pretty desperate to do some Star Trek role-playing, but he’s a few women shy of an away team. Posted a few days ago in the “strictly platonic” section, the ad really wants to impress upon you that this is not going to get sexy. Then again, some of the details of the arrangement suggest otherwise, like when the guy asks for photos and “stats” from potential playmates. Here is the full Craigslist ad, interspersed with relevant Star Trek GIFs. (You may need to give this some loading time.)
Need 2 or 3 women for Star Trek roleplaying. No nudity, no touching.
STRICTLY “THE NEXT GENERATION” ERA CHARACTERS AND COSTUMES. Last time someone tried TOS and it was a disaster. There will be no mixing of eras.
I don’t want to hear how Captain Kirk is so great.
Kirk isn’t half the Captain that Picard is, OK? Kirk is a fat chauvinist ladies man.
Picard is an honorable intellectual and an excellent diplomat.
I built a bridge in my mom’s garage and a small shuttlecraft.
If this sounds like something you want to do let me know and I’ll send you the script. I don’t mind if your costume isn’t terribly authentic, just make sure it’s close to TNG era. Once you have your script you can think about your character and let me know about any ideas you have. We won’t be filming anything, it’s just a fun way to spend an afternoon.
Maybe my mom will make lunch.
It helps if you know a lot about the show.
This isn’t paid, but I have a doctor’s prescription pad (a long story) and I can write you a prescription for basically anything you want.
The reason I need women is that the story is about getting stuck on a shuttlecraft. I can’t tell you more now.
Most weeknights and weekends are good times. Having your own props is an asset e.g. a phaser or a VISOR if your character needs one.
Please respond with pic and short bio plus stats.
Nothing weird is going to happen.
If anyone is interested, you know where to find him.
