Why Janeway Beats Kirk And Picard

1. Understands technobabble, so she knows when the Chief Engineer is lying to her about repair times.

2. Has more hair than Kirk and Picard combined. (Even before Bill Shatner's hairpiece...)

3. Cracks up off-duty crew with her wacky Catherine Hepburn impressions.

4. Can say "Break out the compression phaser rifles" with a completely straight face.

5. Has a 'Significant other', a dog and a career, unlike previous captains whose 'meaningful relationships' never spanned two episodes.

6. Proudly took her Starfleet Oath of Loyalty as a cadet, but giggled all through the part about the Prime Directive.

7. Has ordered Sciences to replicate 1,000,000 "Janeway or the highway!" bumper stickers to slap on passing starships.

8. Commands the first crew in starfleet who actually all wear the same style uniforms.

9. Has mastered a facial expression universally understood by all sentient lifeforms to mean, "Boy, Paris, are you ever stupid".

10. Maintains an elaborate hairdo that would baffle even Princess Leia; apparently without the aid of hairpins (or, if pins are present, carries a small arsenal of them for use as lockpicks, weapons, tools for repairing subspace relays, etc.)
