    Yeah, but that was said in a movie where they could potentially have sweared as much as they wanted to. Or at least acknowledged that ‘dumbass’ wouldn’t be some shocking thing to a guy from the future.

      True, however, we did get Data blurting out, “Oh, shit!” when Troi crashed the Enterprise saucer section into Veridian III in Star Trek: Generations.

      Yeah, it’s like the transporters. They were originally made due to the limitations of making a TV show (budget didn’t allow a landing sequence every episode) but they’ve become an established part of the universe now.
