Your kid asks you to buy this CD for them. What do you do?

There is a Cpt. Picard song that's been kicking around for 20 years or so. But it's full of spoilers till you get through the series and the first couple movies. At least till you get through the series if it's just the audio version.

"Ahhh, Dixon Hill & The Starfleet Mafia... a classic. Sure, why not? It can't be worse than what's out now, right?"

I'd tell them not to worry, we already own it😂

Answer with the only logical response - "Make it so."

Worry that they're getting into gangster sci-fi. These Trek vs BSG feuds so often result in real world violence 😱

A good companion piece to Brent Spiner’s album, “Ol’ Yellow Eyes is Back.” Featured background vocals by The Sunspots (Stewart, Frakes, Burton, and Dorn).

Damn, they left the best song off the album. That being the classic song where just three words are repeated for nine minutes straight. "Shut up, Wesley."

I would say pop music is fine, but try listening to some classical Vulcan lute music too.

I don't have children, so this is theoretical. I'd buy it for them, but none of our computers have a cd drive any more, so they could only listen to it on the enormous music media station that dominates one corner of my living room. (It's got a tape player, a CD player that holds five cds, and an honest to god turntable, plus several hundred vinyl albums courtesy of my Dad.) At least this way I can listen to it too.

Knowing my daughters, easy: We set the player on repeat, throw banana-clips over our eyes, and shake the whole neighborhood with a BLOCK PARTEEEEEEEE!!! {head-thrashing begins}

I play it cool, hide the pride I have for them and nonchalantly turn around to hide the tears of joy I have for my child in that moment.

Have you heard Star Trekkin’ by The Firm? Or Starship Eidelweiss by Eidelweiss? Look then up on YouTube - no spoilers both parody TOS. The latter CD single actually has an epic techno rendition of the Star Trek theme which got played a lot at convention parties in the 90s.

"In this house, we listen to REAL music! Star Wars Cantina Band Jizz!"

I say "Hell no, but you can have this" and I buy them a copy of William Shatner's "Has Been." It's an elegant, full album. Bill really came into his own, artistically and commercially.

Get it on Vinyl you heathen

Tell the kid to go get a job you snowflake. I think the coal mines are hiring

I ask him, "Who told you what a 'CD' even is??"

Bust out the anbo-jytsu gear and give them an sound ass-kicking 👊

Don't only rejoice in their choice of entertainment, but the fact that they desire physical media!

What is this... "CD"... you speak of?

I buy two copies, one for them and one for me

Buy it for them... Heck no I'm buying it for me...😏

The answer is, of course, yes. Spiner and Frakes and a few of the others made silly fans CDs over the years. There's one with a name something like "Old Yellow Eyes" iirc. Every family needs some Trek

Tell them that CDs were mythical things their grandparents believed in.

No son no, we need to wait for the deluxe version with the special “Shut-Up Wesley” track

I’d wonder how the heck did they get into the Icelandic folk music scene

Rub your hands together smugly as you reveal to them your treasured copy of "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" sung by Leonard Nimoy. "Son, do you want to hear real music?"

“Get that kid off my bridge” … great song! Lol

It's a trick question-- some of us don't have kids and never will.

Say yes

I'd buy it for him on the condition that they wear headphones LOL

I prefer the single "Sucked Out (Featuring Will-Dog Riker)," with "Blown Out" on the B-side.

Congratulate them on their good taste :)

Hug them tightly and cry knowing you are a great parent!
