Civil Defense might be the funniest episode of ds9 to me... the way the camera keeps cutting to closeups of characters' shocked faces every time something new goes wrong. dukat's stupid little "attention bajoran workers. pleaseee stop rioting pleasepleaseplease ❤️ ok thanks" message playing on repeat until everyone's sick and tired of it. the fanfic plot of quark and odo getting trapped in odo's office and thinking theyre about to die. kira's iconic "Time for a less subtle approach" before just shooting a door with a phaser. jake sisko climbing through a tube. garak dramatically waltzing into ops just to tell everyone he has high enough security clearance to do that, but he can't do anything to help the station Not self-destruct. but he's here now :) the Science Fiction Device that looks like a cartoon bomb that materializes in the replicator and starts blasting indiscriminately in ops. gul dukat beaming aboard in the You Know I Had To Do It To 'Em pose and proceeding to have a calm and collected conversation with everyone in ops who's currently being shot at. ordering a tea from the replicator and allowing it to continue shooting at everyone while he and garak insult each other. garak brings up dukat's dad. still getting shot at. dukat realizing he's gotten himself stuck on ds9 about to blow up and making the walter white D: face. garak telling dukat to stop flirting with kira. "I should've executed you years ago" "you tried".

growth is pausing as i go to open twitter and thinking "actually we don't need to do that"
having a permanent full time job is you thinking to yourself “so this is really the rest of my life huh” as you come home every single day before using your 4 hours of recreational activity to do nothing and then going to bed
