In lieu of a full review of last night's pilot for Star Trek: Enterprise, I give you "The Net's First 'Enterprise' Slash Fiction."
(Slash fiction, for those not in tune with the lingo, is fanfic (fanfic is fiction written by fans) with pornographic (pornography is- Ah, forget it...) overtones, usually homosexual). I'm linking it here because it's timely, funny, and exactly the kind of thing people are probably writing right now in a not-intended-to-be-satirical way. Oh, on another note, despite the assertion from several comedians that in the wake of 9-11, 'satire is dead,' it's clear that, if this week's Onion is any guide, satire was merely taking a two-week nap. Of course, there are always dissenting opinions, but how many of us are actually old enough to remember when SNL wasn't afraid to use comedy to affect social change, instead of belatedly acknowledge it? If you like it, please share it.
