"I don't speak moose, Jack."

Bwah! I'd forgotten I read this.

*beams* The moose was my idea.

(I'm still somewhat alarmed by just how sexy the whole shoelace thing is. Who knew?)

Yeah, I used the whole shoelace thing as an example in a comment in Anna's LJ. The moose thing was incidental.

which, on reflection, is terrible: Jack's a women, all women do is have children, so let's give Jack a kid).

See -- wow, all of a sudden I'm all Defender Of the Fic -- I thought it was something along the lines of, the kid was the whole reason for Jack being turned into a woman. Or something. Okay, that didn't make any sense either, but...

And I don't think the typos were intentional. Just unbetaed. I don't know why I'm all Defendery, I really don't! It's just, in a fandom with such delights as:

Daniel sighed as they checked out. They headed for the vehicles in the parking lot. They saw others arriving and leaving at the same time. Everyone nodded and exchanged acknowledgements with one another.

I feel protective of the ones that actually make me laugh!

(ETA: and while I'm at it, what is it with the spelling "Gawd"? It always makes me think of middle-school girls.)

what is it with the spelling "Gawd"?

I've used it in a journal entry or two, mostly to indicate an unusual emphasis and, generally, a considerable level of sarcasm or sarcastic distress. As in:

Oh. My. Gawd. The number of errors in the subcontractors' latest data dump look like my 11 year old car's odometer reading, just before the car died.

I can't see using the spelling when referring to an actual diety. Or in a serious entry. I can see using it when something -- say, a really hot Orlando Bloom picture -- makes me feel like a 14 year girl old who just discovered her hormones.

See, yeah, that's exactly what I mean. Your usage I totally get. It's the occasional "Oh Gawd, that feels good, Jack -- oh Gawd, more Worcestershire sauce!" that confuses me.

You've been reading She Of The Very High Output, haven't you?

"Oh Gawd, that feels good, Jack"

This seems incompatable with Daniel's (I'm assuming Daniel here, 'cause if someone's having Teal'c say, "Gawd" I don't wanna know about it) usual diction.

If someone's doing an SG-1/Popslash crossover, maybe I could see it. Or maybe an SG-1/LOTRPS crossover. Think Elijah might say "gawd" if properly provoked?

You've been reading She Of The Very High Output, haven't you?

I have! Man, it's amazing! Where does she find the time?

I have! Man, it's amazing! Where does she find the time?

I have no idea. I've gotta admit, I kind of admire her. I mean, it's not like they're drabbles. (I don't admire her enough to read them, mind. I've been shown some of the high points, though.)
