- kragen 10y agoIt's not even obscure: the reference has 67 upvotes on UrbanDictionary, and the page for the referenced episode has existed for 13 years and 363 edits on Memory Alpha, and for 11 years and 371 edits on Wikipedia.

- biot 10y agoI don't see any evidence that those people are a sufficiently random sample of users vs. Trek nerds who explicitly search for the obscure reference.
