I was always familiar with the classic Riker lean (leg up, arm on top of ops/helm chair), but I never noticed until this time watching just how ridiculous he is in his inability to sit, stand, or even lie like a normal sentient being. Naturally, I had to make a montage. And this is only from the first few seasons…  I’m pretty sure the whole straddling chairs backwards thing didn’t come until later, so I can’t even imagine what other amazing poses will show up as I continue.
