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.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Worms good. No drugs? Bad.

Parts of that are my life-mantra.

It is the whole "Taurii" thing that is confuzzling me.

If I only had a brain...

It is the dumb made-up word they use to avoid saying "Earthlings".

It just occurs to me that SG has no dumb made-up words to avoid saying "fuck", and this is a serious oversight.

Sure they do - it's "Kree!" It means absolutely everything, including "fuck."

"kree"?

"Kree"?

It sounds like what you hear when you step on your Pomeranian. Yeesh.

Well, when voiced by a baritone Jaffa first prime, it's a whole different thing, whether it means, "Come!" "Go!" "Fire!" "Kill them!" "Capture them for our god, ______." "Attention!" "Retreat!" "Break left!" Or, you know, "Fucking Tauri! I hate those guys!"

Youse guys is just kree-ing with my head.

Actually, I was just being (moslty) silly. I have not, to the best of my knowledge, heard it used specifically as a one-to-one replacement for "fuck." It's just... very, very, very all-purpose.

Recognized.

Still, you have to wonder why everyone, but everyone, is ducking the "Taurii" question.

Our wings are not tired.

Tauri = Gus

If I understood that, I might be proud. Or maybe offended. Anyway, there would be an emotion of some sort.
