  • Here’s five of my favorites, especially because most of them provide some character lore/development that enhances watching the movies:

    The Corbomite Maneuver - Kirk’s captaincy style
    Amok Time - Spock lore
    Journey to Babel - fun, ethical dilemma episode, introduces Sarek
    Let That Be Your Last Battlefield - moral lesson episode, introduces the self-destruct, and I’ve found that modern viewers are fascinated by the fact that racism has become alien and confusing to future humans
    The Galileo Seven - character drama, features Spock making survival choices that weigh the needs of the many against the needs of the few



  • American Kit Kats are made by the Hershey company and no money goes to Nestlé.

    Explanation:
    Kit Kat used to be a Rowntree’s product, and Hershey bought the right to make the candy in the U.S. in perpetuity back in 1970. When Nestlé bought Rowtree’s, they had to abide by the contract to license out the Kit Kat for no royalties, because the only condition of the agreement is that Hershey loses the license if the company ever gets sold. And since selling the Kit Kat bar is so valuable, buying Hershey for what it’s currently worth would mean instantly losing a large amount of Hershey’s value, so even when they’ve tried to find a buyer, nobody will buy the company—even Nestlé refused to buy Hershey in 2002.

Rotate your victim’s mouse the wrong way around if they’re gullible and they’ll think the mouse messed everything up,
