    Lol … the rebellious alternative teen in the 90s was often a Trekkie that lived in an alternate reality.

    The modern rebellious alternative teen is now probably someone who refuses to join their parents fanbase.

    It’s probably not that they don’t like Star Trek … it’s probably like they just want to do something without their parents. It doesn’t mean they don’t love you, they just want to do something different.

    But what do I know … I don’t even have kids. But I do have about 30 nieces and nephews, and about the same number of grand nieces and nephews who have given me enough experience to know that teenagers are a weird bunch … and when you think about it, we all were at one point.
