Hi Mups! Don’t worry about if you’ve never heard of the Borg, eh? There’s lots of other folks that don’t watch Sci-Fi shows.
But to answer your question anyway - The Borg are the bad guys on the TV show Star Trek - The Next Generation.
Hi Alan. Thanks for the welcome. And no, I’m sorry to say, I’m waaaaay past my prime! 
Aha. That explains why I didn’t know. I’ve never watched Star Trek. 
Thanks Susie! Yes, me n’ Sue absolutely adore (and spoil) our cats. I do all the grunt work though - litter boxes etc. I’ll be posting more pics soon, if I can find em.
Hello Cheshire Cat! Thank you for the welcome!
Hello Tess. Thanks for the welcome. Alas, I regret I cannot help you with your Murdoch Mysteries request. I’ve never watched the show. Much like Mups with Star Trek.
Sorry Tess. Now I FEEL bad … 
…
Sorry to hijack an intro but seriously never watched Star Trek?
I think Ive seen every episode ever made and every film …Of course I might have missed the odd one but I dont think so…
Welcome 3 of 5, dont worry about the migraines they settle as the nano technoligy merges with your own unique being and absorbs you into the hive mind…
‘The Borg’ are my favourite scary characters, Mups. They are part human, part cyber creatures with a group mentality. When ‘Star Trek’ was still at it’s height the phrase ‘You will be assimilated - resistance is futile’ was heard all over the place and in many contexts. One of our hospital managers, lecturing us on computerization, said, quite seriously, ‘resistance is futile’ and wondered why we all fell about laughing !
Didn’t Borg win Wimbledon a couple of times… 
Hi there! Three of Five great that you could join us, were a friendly bunch that like a good chat 
Ps. Sorry i don’t know much about Star Trek…
Hello welcome you sound very interesting☺
Nothing the Borg did would surprise me, Plantman !
Oh Heck !
You will abandon all house work and watch all of the ‘Star Trek - Borg fan collective’ DVDs - resistance is futile !
Welcome 3 (I don’t suppose you could get your colleague 7 of 9 to join as well could you?)
Hello and welcome.
Cass, I’m not one of them peeps that pitches a snit-fit when a thread gets detoured a little. No el problemo. And thanks for the welcome!
I’ve seen every Star Trek over n’ over except the series, Deep Space Nine and Enterprise. Couldn’t get into DSN at all. And the very existence of “Enterprise” totally destroyed the continuity of the Star Trek Universe for me! And so, to this very day, I refuse to even watch it! … REFUSE, I tell ya! I will NOT COMPLY!
Thanks for the tech advice about the nanoprobes, eh? What I think happened is I got given a bad batch. You know, like maybe they was way past their expiry date, or something?
YES, Plantman! You’re absolutely right! He was a Bajoran Borg.
Hello Suzuki Sue! Are you a biker? My Missus’s name is Sue and she was a biker for a very short while. Until she took a semi-nasty spill a few years back. She was making a left turn and run into some gravel on the road that wasn’t supposed to be there!
She was okay. But her Yamaha Verago’s been parked in the garage ever since.
Hey there Doc! Thanks for the welcome! Ya know, my very favourite western of all time, is Tombstone! And YOU my friend, just happen to be my favourite character!
Isn’t that a daisy?
