Star Trek Fragrances

An anonymous reader writes "I am a trek fan and excited about the new movie, but this is too much. From the Trek Movie Article: 'Genki Wear, known for its licensed science fiction jewelry and perfumes, has produced what might be the most unusual Star Trek product ever: Star Trek colognes and perfume based on the original 1960s television show. ... There are three fragrances planned for 2009 with the monikers 'Tiberius," "Red Shirt" and "Ponn Farr."'" Are they telling us we stink?

That used to be called "sultry" in B.P.C. (Before Political Correctness). Of course smoking used to be cool in movies. Now organizations count the number of light-ups in each film. "Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the cough.".

Am I the only one ...

[Sepiraph]

that associated the name 'Ponn Farr' with 'Porn Fan'???

I can see how this went...

Clearly, someone was tired of standing around at sci-fi conventions where everybody smells. They might not shower, they might not buy regular cologne, but they'll buy STAR TREK COLOGNE! :D

Genius. Especially since people will undoubtedly want to "collect the whole set" (granted there are only two at the moment). PROFIT!

Bringing this back on-topic, I feel exactly the same way about perfume. All I want is to breathe clean air, but every time I go out in public some asshole has to ruin it for me. What the fuck makes people think they have the right to pollute my personal airspace with that obnoxious garbage? Every time some Axe-boy walks past and fills my nostrils with the reek of synthetic male puberty pheromones I have to stifle a very strong primal urge to snap their scrawny neck like a toothpick. When I finally do crack and go off on my rampage, my defense will be chemically-induced temporary insanity. The first one to go will be the one who calls me a "whiner" or some such; then I will give them something to whine about for the last few seconds of their life.
