NEW RULE: If you’re going to talk in public on speakerphone, you have to be okay with random people walking up to you and joining the conversation long enough to tell the person on the other end of the line that you were touching yourself while talking to them.

Happy 53rd Anniversary to #StarTrek, the legendary animated series which premiered on NBC the morning of Saturday, September 8th, 1973.
I've heard they also did a live-action version of the show with these same characters.
