After making this, I realized “What About Barclay?” would be a better candidate, but Q works for this scene.
Apparently, since 1962. Now we just need a better mark to denote sarcasm than /s.
Considering the question mark is at least as old as the fifth century, I’d call 1962 new.
I’m working on a punctuation mark that looks like pelvic thrusting but it’s hard to get it on print
It gets that way when you handle it like that.

What’s wrong with “⸮”?
Normalize using the interrobang online.
What About Reg
Q should’ve been the ship’s chef in Enterprise, and the last episode should not have been a holodeck experience.
should not have been
All that is needed to say.
I genuinely would’ve found this hilarious and should’ve been done. Hell, I didn’t know I needed this imagery till now.
It’s what I was expecting from the finale episode when I watched it. Instead, I was left disappointed.
The chef being off-screen yet somehow involved in a few storylines, it only makes sense that it was Q or a time traveller.
For a while, I thought that last episode was intended to make the entire series nothing but a holonovel. Making it so none of it counted because it was in-universe fictional was a goddamn brilliant way to redeem that entire dogshit show.
Then other stuff started referencing it like it was canon and it went back to being an unforgivable disgrace.
Okay but there’s like fifteen other Jeffrey Combses I can appreciate.
Fair enough. ENT as a series is on the weaker end of the spectrum, but not without its strengths. For example, s1e13 “Dear Doctor” focuses on Dr. Phlox and one of the best moral/ethical dilemmas in all of Trek. No “pew pew” flashy distractions, but rather a lot of discussion on the choice to help others at the cost of cultural contamination.
“The trial never ends!”
That is not the correct use of an interrobang.

Patrick Stewart may not be as animated as Richard Dreyfuss, but it still works.
The interrobang, also known as the interabang ‽, is an unconventional punctuation mark intended to combine the functions of the question mark and the exclamation mark.
