The Borg in Deep Space 9 were a flashback and were not filmed for the series but reused from The Next Generation. They were not shown in the scene filmed in which Sisko's wife died.
The scene was enough to make my wife question why I was watching such a show and quickly it was turned off.

I will agree that a cube shooting lasers looks pretty stupid.

Some of you guys are a tough bunch...LOL!!

So, it might not be important to you, but it is obviouisly important to him. Only one of us knows the person, but we probably men or women who are the same.

I try to follow the concept of treating others as I would want to be treated. Tough love is what I have needed at time, so I do give it at times.

I think sometimes people say things on the internet they would not say in person. Maybe I am wrong.

Hello. Do you have experiences?
Of course, many. Seriously, most women I've dated couldn't have cared less. If you have nothing else to offer but your looks, you're going to wear out your welcome really really quickly. There's nothing sexier to me than intelligence combined with a great sense of humor an empathic nature, a touch of darkness, and a dash of crazy.

Looks matter, more or less, for the first nanosecond because that's all you know about the other person.

After that nanosecond, personality and compatibility become more important, unless the relationship is strictly physical. And even in the context of a strictly sexual relationship, good looks don't necessarily translate to good sex.

Some people are ruled by appearances, and that's fine for them. Bores the shit out of me.

I agree. I didn't know you were bald.

I so agree with this. I've met plenty of ladies who grabbed my eye but left me totally cold after talking for a few minutes or seconds. And plenty of not a second glance until she said something profound or awesome. The way I put it looks are like packaging they can get you to look and consider but if there is nothing backing it up the cool package does not matter. Now sometimes you get a great blend with a great tin too (like my girlfriend).

I prefer to think of it as that my hair has migrated to other places.

I hope it's not growing inside.

You like to look inside?

I see it as those who are bald defend it and those with hair are glad they are not bald.
Truth. But part of that is guys with hair fearing going bald. Once you’re there it’s no big deal. If I could have my hair back, I suppose I would. But bald actually has some perks. It’s not like it affects my life in any way other than showers are a little quicker and I save money on haircuts. ?‍♂️
I certainly can’t see it being worth the hassle or expense of all those hair restoration surgeries or whatever. I never understood how you pull that off anyway. You’re bald one day, then you show up to work the next week with hair?! ? Like no one will suspect? I’d feel silly as hell.

No disrespect to anyone with hair plugs! ?
