Tui: the annoying thing about SG-1 is I'm constantly having to disengage and reingage certain parts of my brain.
Lucy: the parts that deal with logic and science and consistency? because those are hard parts to disengage, I find.
Tui: the international relations parts, also known as the "Hey, I'm not American!" reflex.
Tui: for example, in one storyline Earth/SG-1 refuses to get involved in another planet's civil war.
Lucy: yay! *claps hands for sense*
Tui: On the other hand, there's this secondary storyline for most of the later seasons where the stargate programme is under international pressure to share the stargate - one suggestion was to move it to neutral territory and include representatives from a bunch of nations.
Tui: But the Asgard step in to say actually, it's gotta be the Americans.
Lucy: ...why?
Tui: Because Thor likes General O'Neill.
Lucy: If the word "freedom" comes up, I'm gonna haveta smack a bitch.
Oh, well, that's....mildly better.
Tui: But the point is, it's exactly the kind of interference they'd refused to engage in on other alien worlds!Q!!!
And we're supposed to applaud it!
Lucy: Um...the Asgard have no morals?
Lucy: General O'Neill is just that good?
Lucy: The whole galaxy should recognise American superiority?
Tui: *facepalm* it's just, it's MORONIC.
Lucy: yes.
Tui: there's this chinese dude saying all these eminently reasonable things. And hammond's like, No wai!
Lucy: But, Tui, he's CHINESE.
He's an evil commie dictator terrorist Islamist pinko liberal EVIL CHINESE.
Who MAKES LEAD TOYS.
AND MAKES AMERICAN BABIES EAT THEM.
Tui: haaaa.
Lucy: YOU CANNOT TRUST A WORD HE SAYS.
Lucy: You laugh, but IT'S TRUE.
