And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I vote Q'thulu. It has an apostrophe and is therefore obviously superior.

“Not dead yet!”

Do alien languages have apostrophes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. Plus any word that has a Q without a U after it is cool.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Do alien languages have apostrophes?

Klingon and Vulcan do, so it must be true for all of them. Right?

That's ironclad logic.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Statistical evidence that the Iran election returns were fraudulent.

Why would fraudulent numbers look any different? The reason is that humans are bad at making up numbers. Cognitive psychologists have found that study participants in lab experiments asked to write sequences of random digits will tend to select some digits more frequently than others.

Absolutely. After all, when you hit someone else on the thumb with a hammer, what better to say than "Q'apla"?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The Old Ones are Goa'uld?

Yeah, but we're the ones putting in the apostrophes. What if it's something different in their languages?
