Sangkran Reminds Me of Planet Beta III

[NCC1701A]

Sangkran is some way reminds me of my brief visit to Planet Beta III.   I noticed a strangeness in the people we encountered, a kind of contented mindlessness expression on their faces. Then, at six o'clock, the red hour strikes – the beginning of the Festival, a period of debauchery and lawlessness.

 

Please watch this short mission log and see if you agree. Ironically the ultimate cause of "festival" cannot be discussed here because it is against forum rules.

Did you come up with that yourself? Not that it is proprietary or anything, but people I worked with back in 80’s used the term “festival” as a slang term for Songkran. So yes, its been used, and a lot.

However those people probably grew up with original Star Trek. Today not so much. I have used it, had to explain it. Which results in a puzzled look, and a what the heck are you talking about response. Ah, someone who knows.
