So I'm kind of research watching for a thing


And John Sheppard just called a planet's entire historical way of life "that crap".

I LOVE THIS SHOW. IT IS SO FUCKED UP

Who wants to help me research-watch? I would like to make a list of the Top Ten Atlantis is Colonialist episodes for seasons 1 - 3. The Tower is pretty far up there, but I especially want anything where they're all "we have the gene, neener neener" while dealing with a well-established civilization.

the best fictional outing I ever read was this: 'you know that secret love kirk had for spock? Well, me too'. That is awesome news about your mom, btw.

Maybe you would be the heathen outsider, whose technology we accept, but try to keep the culture separate?

HOMG YOU GUYS, I COMPARED SGA TO THE ENTERPRISE FINALE AND NOW THE SHOW'S BEEN CANCELLED.

I KNOW. This thread is now in such bad taste.

Have you no SGA people on your flist at all? THEY ARE CRYING.

You know what? The first thing I do every morning is check my comment notifications. Then the flist. You guys have the dubious honour of being the ones who told me first. And now I've read it like 40 times. Dude.

In tragedy we have achieved that which we once set out to do: hijack [livejournal.com profile] sapote3's comment thread such that the comments are only one word wide.

we can do better.

Unfuckingbelievable. Not even Teal'c-esque stoicism could mend this.

OH you meant THIS THREAD.
You realize it actually was your fault.

WHAT. It is NOT MY FAULT.

*le sigh*

It is, isn't it. I CAN NEVER TALK ABOUT ENTERPRISE ON THE INTERNET EVER AGAIN. I'M THE REASON WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!!!
