I'm really liking BSG, it's dark, but hey, down to our last 47,000 people here. Six I find un-sexy and uncharasmatic and pretty much bland. But the world would be a dull place if we all agreed. And anyway Harvey was a much more charasmatic avatar than she could ever hope to be.
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Frank is right about the Farscape dvds; by the time order becomes *really* important the dvds are going in the right order.

Good, I thought I had that right.
I really need to re-watch, and soon. Although, not so easy, since I just remembered I lent out season 1. Curses.

Swearword smackdown:
What's your favorite made-up SF swearword? Mine is "frell" because it actually sounds like you're cursing. (Probably because it rhymes with "hell".)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What's your favorite made-up SF swearword?
Smeg. Although I never use it myself. "Frak" is good, but maybe sounds too close to "fuck."
Outside of SF, my favorite made-up swearword is from Beavis and Butthead: "butt dumpling."
Or from South Park: "Ass spelunker."

What's your favorite made-up SF swearword?
I don't think it originated there, but I always liked MST3K's use of "dickweed".

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
"Felgercarb"!
No, not really. I use frell all the time.

Conversation Tuesday night:
Me: "It's 90 damn degrees again."
Daughter: "Language, Mom."
Me: "Okay, it's 90 frelling degrees again."
Daughter: "Geekishness, Mom."

In the seventies, Marvel Comics started using "spit" in place of "shit," leading to wonderful phrase "I'm scared spitless." Ah, the comics code.
