A good hamburger, maybe?
With bacon?
I can work with that.
Maybe some seasoned fries, and lemonade.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Ew. No bacon, and no funny spices on the fries. But I'm with you on the lemonade.
You can have bacon, of course, she said generously.

Can I have your bacon, Katie M? And I'll have a lemonade, thanks.
I don't think Stargate redefines the genre or anything, but I love it just the same. And I do think it brings up interesting issues, even if it can't address them head-on all the time.

You can have my bacon, absolutely. Also my pickle, if you want it.

THERE WILL BE NO PICKLES.

No pickles? Hamburger, fries, lemonade, and no pickles? What kind of sick freak are you?
There are pickles. The issue of the Jaffa is the pickle of Stargate. It's off to the side -- necessary, but separate and complete in its own right.
Plus, you can always give it to me. I'm losing control of the metaphor.

2) The running gag that we developed about how everyone should be set on fire or else made over as Robocop.
I think most of them had the first option covered.
Really, the creators needed some guidance from Alec Mapa or Dwight Ewell about how to make flamboyant over-the-top characters that aren't offensive or overly stereotypical.

I think the message here is that Emily wants Teal'c.
