I think I’m going to have to stop reading these. They are just so depressing.
When the joke is consistently “no one likes you and someone else is having sex with your wife and fathering your child”, it stops feeling like a joke and starts seeming like a cuckold’s idle fantasies.
I read a lot of these. Here’s my hot take: It’s not real. It’s not canon. This never happened to Miles O’Brien and never will.
For me, personally, that’s enough to let me enjoy the absurd comedy.
I enjoy it here and there. My big problem is that it’s the same joke almost every time.
It’s a fictional version of a fictional person. I’m sort of amused when people get upset about it.
I just wish they were better quality
Remember, this is only strip #35 and he’s done over 200. They improve over time.
Can we skip to the good ones then, because so far they’ve all been, ha ha, he’s getting cheated on
Wait! I just noticed that Molly was born in 2368 and O’Brien transferred to DS9 in 2369.
Molly is quite precocious to be talking like that at less than a year old.
Worf’s son Alexander was born in 2366 and was fighting in the Dominion war by 2374, at 8 years old, so I think he has her beat on precociousness.
That’s a Klingon thing that’s been mentioned a couple of times.
It was more of a “we forgot all about Worf’s son, but Brian Bonsall is too young” thing.
It wasn’t a complete retcon. In TOS, Klingons were supposed to live only 30-40 years.
I don’t remember that ever being said in TOS.
