Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow

Dr. Who fans will recognise this phrase instantly. What's your favourite piece of techno-babble? I also like 'Deploy all zone 5 units according to plan B' (from The Day the Earth Stood Still)

Or that Pizza Hut commercial where Jessica Simpson puts on professor garb and rattles off an overly complex equation to find out the number of Pizza Hut topping combos (something like 40,000) to muppets.

I, in a very Wyrewizardesque fashion did the math and came up with something like 27.

I was always partial to Eros' explaination of how Solaranite is just like a can of gasoline:

Colonel Tom Edwards: You speak of Solaranite. But just what is it?

Eros: Take a can of your gasoline. Say this can of gasoline is the sun. Now, you spread a thin line of it to a ball, representing the earth. Now, the gasoline represents the sunlight, the sun particles. Here we saturate the ball with the gasoline, the sunlight. Then we put a flame to the ball. The flame will speedily travel around the earth, back along the line of gasoline to the can, or the sun itself. It will explode this source and spread to every place that gasoline, our sunlight, touches. Explode the sunlight here, gentlemen, you explode the universe. Explode the sunlight here and a chain reaction will occur direct to the sun itself and to all the planets that sunlight touches, to every planet in the universe. This is why you must be stopped. This is why any means must be used to stop you. In a friendly manner or as (it seems) you want it.

Lieutenant John Harper: He's mad.

[RCMerchant]

"He's mad."  Thats quite an understatement! I wonder if that was an autobiographical insight into his (Ed Woods) inner ego-psyche,brought on by unconciously channeling Lana Turner and  idol worship of Bela Lugosi,compounded by an ever increasing in-flow of fermented potato products,coupled with a incestant need for recognition from the Hollwood studio systym,the result of his filmatic ineptitude in acheiving an influx of hyper-insemoind activity in the upper temporal lobe,caused by solar activity of the sun in conjuction with the full moon andthe movements of the tides? What do you think?

A goth musician out of New York who calls himself Voltaire did a wonderful parody of every Star Trek episode along these lines called "The U.S.S. Make S**t Up."

Here are the lyrics:

I was stranded on a planet, Just me and Spock
We met a nasty nazi alien who locked our asses up
We found a hunk of crystal and a metal piece of bed
We made a laser phaser gun and shot him in the head

Bust a move, Tog

I was standing on the bridge when Sulu came to me
His eyes were full of tears he said "Captain, can't you see
the ship is gonna blow do something I beseech"
I grabbed a tribble and some chewing gum and stopped the warp core breach

And I say,
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things, lad, we're making s**t up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some s**t up

And though he's just a child, and some think him a twit
Wesley is the master when it comes to making up some s**t
He's the guy you want with you when you go out in space
Now if only he could beam those pimples off his face

And if you're at a party on the starship Enterprise
And the karaoke player just plain old up and dies
Set up a neutrino field inside a can of peas
Hold on to Geordi's visor and sing into Data's knee

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making s**t up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some s**t up

Sisko's on a mission to go no bloody place
He loiters on a space station above Bajoran space
The wormhole's opened up and now they come from near and far
We'll keep the booze but please send back the f***ing Jem-hadar

What is with the Klingons, remember in the day
They looked like Puerto Ricans and they dressed in gold lame
Now they look like heavy metal rockers from the dead
With leather pants and frizzy hair and lobsters on their heads

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making s**t up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some s**t up

Well, I was stuck on Voyager, pounding on the door
When suddently it dawned on me I've seen this show before
Perhaps I'm in a warp bubble and slightly out of phase
'Cause it was way back in the sixties when they called it "Lost in Space"

We were looking for a way to make the ratings soar
So we orchestrated an encounter with the Borg
Normally you'd think that that would get us into s**t
But this one has a smashing ass and a lovely set of tits

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making s**t up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we're totally screwed but nevermind
We'll pull something out of our behinds, we just make some s**t up

I love that show!

Derf, where can I get to hear that song?

About Star Trek, I remember a documentary a few years ago, in which one of the writing staff attended Nasa press briefings, mainly to note down cool sounding terms and phrase, which would then end up in the script.

[Derf]

Derf, where can I get to hear that song?

I downloaded it a while back (sorry, don't remember the website, and the download wouldn't be free anymore anyway). His website lists the cd (a whole collection of Trek-themed songs) as out of stock, but since he's an independent artist, you might be able to contact him. He says his music is available on iTunes, but I couldn't check that since I don't have the software and don't want to download it since it tries to take over too many other things. Amazon has some of his music, but apparently not that cd. Wish I could help you out more; it's a really fun song.
