I had a mental image of Mr. Spock actually saying that, and the rest of the crew just stopped and stared at him for about thirty seconds. Nobody said a word.
Also Mr. Spock is the science officer, he would be rarely, if ever, called upon to fire the weapons of the USS Enterprise. It was the task of Ensign Chekov or Lieutenant Sulu.
However, in the new CBS series they apparently can say “f**king” in the Star Trek universe. Never watched the series, just saw a YouTube clip of it. So “Let’s blast their buns off!” is pretty benign.

I had this one on my bulletin board for many years, right next to the immortal “corduroy pillows” strip.

Now, Chekov might have said, “Let’s blast their buns off!”

Twaddle all you want about language on the bridge, guys; I don’t care. The question is, did the photon torpedoes neutralize the Klingons?

The adventures of the Enterpoop are my favorite in this strip!
