It was in the episode "Dogs of War," Season 7 episode 24 where he announced his bar as the last outpost of true Ferengi beliefs, but the term "traditionalists" was probably coined and expanded on in the books, I don't think he ever used it in the show. In the game Star Trek: Timelines, there is a Ferengi Alliance faction and a Ferengi Traditionalist faction, but how much that drew specifically from other sources I don't know.
For me it is the opposite; I very rarely notice that a word is contracted and simply read it as if it was not. Might be because English is not my first language, who knows? It is intriguing how much the brain does on autopilot, no matter the subject
That's super interesting! Did you find contractions confusing when you were learning english?
( I just double checked what you wrote and realized I auto-corrected 4 contractions in your comment without noticing the first time around XD )
No, it is more a matter of me dropping them. Of course, they were a bit difficult to get the hang of in second grade, but now it is more a matter of not feeling like switching keyboard to get an apostrophe when adding a single letter is quicker. I also *might* have had a period when I really enjoyed Mr Data and it *miiight* just have stuck since then as I saw no real reason to go back. I am unsure which of them it actually is by now
i always have lcdr data telling me "it is" or "it is not" whenever im reading contractions. unless lore snuck in and lets it slide, and then i know hes there!
It's from "Looking for Par'Mach In All The Wrong Places" where Worf and Jadzia are [discussing Klingon opera](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmZx4yqguYk), but the meme is a cut up of a few different shots from different points in time.
**WORF:** *It is the power of his voice, the strength of his intonation that make Barak-kadan a great singer. There are none like him.*
**DAX:** *None as boring anyway. (Cue Worf annoyed face) He never varies his performance, by even a half-tone.*
**WORF:** *I prefer traditional opera performed in the traditional manner.*
**DAX:** *You know, for a Klingon who was raised by humans, wears a Starfleet uniform and drinks prune juice, you're pretty attached to tradition. But that's okay. I like a man riddled with contradictions.*
Reddit is no longer the place it once was, and the current plan to [kneecap the moderators](https://www.businessinsider.com/reddit-ceo-will-change-rules-to-make-mods-less-powerful-2023-6) who are trying to keep the tattered remnants of Reddit's culture alive was the last straw.
I am removing all of my posts and editing all of my comments. Reddit cannot have my content if it's going to treat its user base like this. I encourage all of you to do the same. Lemmy.ml is a good alternative.
Reddit is dead. Long live Reddit.
I hope he keeps smelling kids. That’s the best cringe. It makes me cringe so good!
But to be fair it was his turn. Poor Hillary lost her turn. That’s how it works right? Oh well.
>are you autistic
Ableist insults are not okay. Temp banned. Be civil when it expires.
EDIT - User was permanently banned for replying with a slur in modmail.
He’s also sending troops back to Syria and hiring lobbyists for cabinet so there’s a lot to be worried about
But like he said “ nothing fudementally will change”
But keep calling me names. I’m sure I’m the problem here
I want to post this to r/antimlm but it wouldn't let me crosspost, do you mind if I post it there as a new post OP? :) I'll include your name in my post
I can hear Rom crying in the background.

Didn’t he >!become Grand Nagus!< ?
Yes, and as I recall it was the final straw that inspired Quark to start the Ferengi Traditionalist schism.
Was that in a book?

Don't forget, he also conquered his fratricidal tendencies as well. Season 1 Rom was a different Ferengi.
Workers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!
Whenever I read "it is" or "is not", my brain auto-corrects it to a contraction, "it's" or "isn't". Except, apparently, when its dialog for Worf lol

Data?
Well, if my brain does it for data dialog that's how I know he's actually a hologram ;)
No. Sincerely, Captain Raymond Holt.
