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.

If I only had a brain...

"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!"

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

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.

Tauri = Gus

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

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Tauri is what the Goauld call people from earth. The Jaffa picked up the habit from them.

And, since Kree! is used so often and in so many contexts, we don't know if we have or haven't heard it equal fuck! Actually, there are many times when that would be a good guess.

Jaffa, Kree!

Could mean, "come here and service me, you tall stud."

Or, you know, not.

Totally. This is why I added the "to the best of my knowledge" disclaimer. Actually, it'd be kind of funny to just assume that's what they're saying every time.
