• 02:38 @abostick59 that's my usual MO. however, i'm watching this show to understand what friends of mine are talking about. #
• 02:38 @cesy1212 i KNOW! such pitiful writing for her. and i was looking forward to an actual diplomat running the place. #
• 02:39 @polderdom ah, so it gets worse, eh? :) #
• 02:39 @amberfoxfire yay!!! they're writing her so badly; i have to grit my teeth all the time she's onscreen. #
• 02:40 if i found alien lifepods, i'd not assemble around them without precautions in my home lab, no. why is the writing so stupid? #sga #
• 02:41 i think i'm in the mood to work on MiL's cashmere shawl. just need to pick a lace pattern. #
• 05:47 your leader has been possessed by an alien entity. do you remove her access to station systems? not if you're on #sga. *weeps*. #
• 05:48 sugrued my stainless steel sieve. does a better job than the spot welding which broke. #
• 07:35 the "michael" storyline makes me actively hate #sga. those people have a terrible shortage of ethics. #
• 17:05 @amberfoxfire *heh*. the only way i enjoyed twilight was by reading this one guy's review of each chapter. hilarious. #
• 17:06 @therealdesh yay! the stuff is really totally awesome. #
• 17:07 the wraith got michael back. they're not gonna like him much either (do they like anyone?), but i think we haven't seen the last of him.#sga #
• 17:08 i am totally hoping this stupid, unethical experiment on another sentient being will bite #sga in the behind, and hard. #
• 17:09 in other news, it's still cool and rainy, and my plants are loving it. so am i. should go to the shop to do varnishing, but *meh*. #
• 17:12 @amberfoxfire the thing is, we don't know anything about the wraith, at all. we just learned they have factions.how about some intelligence? #
• 17:12 @amberfoxfire and yeah; they're on top of the food chain, behaving like we did for ages with all animals, including the smarter ones. #
• 17:14 @amberfoxfire no, you're not seeing things. the symbiote poison was similar, as was the weapon to destroy the replicators. bad, bad writers. #
• 17:15 i wonder how so many people enjoy stargate when it has such serious ethics problems that make me cringe in most episodes. it's fictional? #
• 17:17 but then again, i do enjoy smut even if it's very questionable (rape in yaoi, etc). seems my 'nads don't care about ethics. #
• 17:18 and i did manage to enjoy much of sg-1. but sga goes over the line too much. maybe it's also because i do not care much for the whole team. #
• 17:19 i like shep and teyla and bennett, but mackay's shrill pettiness gets on my nerves, i want weir dead, and ronon could be less cavemannish. #
• 17:20 @amberfoxfire yeah, i am not being critical, just wondering in order to understand. did you like it before encountering fic for it? #
• 17:21 @amberfoxfire yeah, teyla is the ethical core of the team. she is the diplomat that weir should be. #
• 17:22 @amberfoxfire i understand why they write him as they do, i just don't much like people who hit first and ask questions later, if at all. #
• 17:23 i want to like mackay because i really like david hewlett as an actor, but oh man, selfish AND shrill. shrill really gets to me viscerally. #
• 17:24 @amberfoxfire having encountered fic for sg1 before the marathon makes a big difference for me; i see possibilities where otherwise, *meh*. #
• 17:25 @amberfoxfire i did see individual episodes before, but never enough to make me seek out the series as a whole. #
• 17:25 @amberfoxfire *cackle*. #
• 17:29 just fed vincent and he finally let me touch him all over. he's in bad shape, very skinny again, and his fur is deep-matted. *sigh*. #
• 17:30 @amberfoxfire *heh*. yeah, that would do it. i find sg1 more slashable than sga, cuz the men actually like and trust each other. #
• 17:36 @amberfoxfire i'm sorry, i can't see mackay as a viable romantic interest for sheppard. or really, anyone. his character flaws are massive. #
• 17:37 @Scatterbeams he left when the *poing* visited, and hasn't really been back inside since. #
• 17:38 @amberfoxfire mackay's saving grace is that when shit really hits the fan, he is no longer selfish. but that's not good enough for a r'ship. #
• 17:40 @amberfoxfire there are women in his life? who, katie? she's a non-entity to me. #
• 17:41 @FlanInfo mckay. does shep have any character flaws? (just kidding.) #
• 17:44 i actually wish sga didn't do any canon romance. instead i want them to explore ancient buildings and find cool stuff. #
• 17:45 @amberfoxfire luckily wikis can be edited by people who know better! ;) #
• 17:46 @tempest67 watched baseketbaru? ;) #
• 17:47 @amberfoxfire oh, jewel staite - that's promising, i like her. she played a wraith too, and did a great job. #
• 17:49 @FlanInfo @martinfirrell oh yeah? link, pls? i'd be interested in seeing that (i have my own small list, *heh*). #
• 17:50 @amberfoxfire that was SO great! #
• 17:50 @tempest67 that is true. #
• 17:55 @tempest67 after all these years i can actually tell american sports apart. :) #
• 17:56 @Scatterbeams he's not really back, but at least he comes closer again. *sigh*. #
• 17:56 @polderdom i think shows are more easily handled from within a fic community, because they add so much to the show and ignore the crap. #
• 20:00 @tempest67 all is atwitter with the bad umpire news. :) #
• 20:00 @FlanInfo thanks much! #
• 20:01 @Scatterbeams yeah, i am hoping, though this is more easily done in winter. #
• 20:17 @azurelunatic you have more sense than i do. :) #
• 20:19 a-ha-ha. i KNEW we hadn't seen the last of michael. let the ass-kicking commence. #sga #
• 20:23 @azurelunatic yeah, i don't watch actual tv either; i just marathon torrents/DVDs. can't be bothered to watch serials until finished. #
• 20:24 @tempest67 wow,that is SOME bad call. #
• 20:24 teyla is the only one with more sense than the ancients gave a grapefruit. #sga #
• 20:26 weir hopes "we're doing the right thing". ok, that's the death knell for this idea. #sga #
• 20:40 @tempest67 i guess that umpire's name will be known for much longer than he'd otherwise been. *wry grin*. #
• 20:58 if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. ancient proverb, not heeded by #sga. #
• 20:59 whatever happened to "download to a non-networked computer"? oops, eh? #sga #
• 21:32 @tempest67 yeah, i imagine so. nobody makes that sort of bad call on purpose. #
• 23:24 @green_knight yeah, "oops" seems to be the operative state in which they find themselves. #
• 23:26 aside from the questionable ethics of practicing gene "therapy" on wraiths, the treatment of the resultant humans by sga is SO STUPID. #
• 23:26 i can't think of a better way to foster suspicion and resentment. dunno whether i can stomach another 3 seasons of this crud. #
• 23:27 @anahcrow and i thank you both for it! #
• 23:29 while i am bitching: starting chain in laceweight yarns SUCKS. #
