A warp-speed collection of intergalactic laughs for Trekkies who know the final frontier is always better with a little humor.

I'm super excited to share this meme collection with you because I'm the geekiest person you'll ever meet. I'm all about fandoms, getting into the story, and later looking for memes only the crazy obsessed with something will understand. And to begin this new era of mine, of course I had to go with Star Trek, since it has never been short on material for a good meme.

I think it is because of how deep and unique every character is. We have Captain Kirk, for example, who dramatically commands the Enterprise… or Spock, who always makes questionable decisions… or even Scotty, who somehow finds a way to keep the whole ship together while other people demand more power. A lot is going on every single time, so for crazy busy minds like mine, it's great to have that amount of stimulation. Also, they're so dang funny…

For everyone like me, fandoms have a special place in our hearts. Besides the movie or the show that created the fandom, it's great to feel like we belong to something, and being able to showcase this love and this passion with other people who feel the same way… is a very unique feeling. And thanks to the internet, we now get to share all of these with people across the world. In the case of Star Trek fans, since this goes way beyond ages, being able to connect in this way is also unbelievable.

Few fandoms can understand the sense of connection we have as Trekkies. Star Trek became that show that brought a whole family together to sit in front of the TV and to enjoy some episodes. And now, the internet has given this community a bigger bridge to gather on, where references, theories, favorite captains, and, of course, memes can travel at warp speed. So, grab your communicator, prepare yourself, and enjoy these Star Trek memes.
