[AnyRei] 12:51 pm: ^^
[Purpleyin] 12:52 pm: nowhere near enough free disc space
[dahan] 12:52 pm: are we taking and intermission between the eps or just plowing through
and let the credits run?
[Purpleyin] 12:52 pm: I think it'd be sensible to take a toilet break
[AnyRei] 12:53 pm: i will have to pause. I had the episode selected and it will jump to the
menu again, when the episode is finished
[AnyRei] 12:53 pm: good point
[Purpleyin] 12:53 pm: I might also need to set up a new stream for the 2nd ep
[dahan] 12:53 pm: I have mine setup the same way AnyRei
[AnyRei] 12:53 pm: season box ^^
[dahan] 12:53 pm: k, set a timer for after the credits end for 5mins?

[dahan]

[The Cabin]: Purpleyin has left at 12:55 pm
[dahan] 12:55 pm: eep
[dahan] 12:55 pm: hopefully it takes her only a few minutes to fix what she needs to watch
[AnyRei] 12:55 pm: it sounds difficult
[dahan] 12:56 pm: she was telling me about a weird software glitch her mac is having
problems with in regards to her bluray discs
[AnyRei] 12:56 pm: mac...
[dahan] 12:57 pm: I say we wait for her and have her do a countdown if she doesn't get back
before the timer runs out
[AnyRei] 12:57 pm: sure
[dahan] 12:57 pm: yea mac... I'm a PC person and don't want to start a war so I'm just gonna
be quiet about it

[dahan]

[AnyRei] 12:58 pm: me too ^^
[AnyRei] 12:58 pm: it's a pity it's just the 3 of us

[Purpleyin] 1:13 pm: I love the lighting
[Fanwoman] 1:13 pm: I know, it's like the Athosians just became inconvenient
[Purpleyin] 1:13 pm: I guess kids are one of those types of characters not many writers like
writing for
[dahan] 1:13 pm: man the uniforms seem so dated now

[Purpleyin] 1:16 pm: But nevermind that, we all know scifi shows never show you the loos

[Fanwoman] 1:17 pm: I'd forgotten how pretty Teyla is
[Purpleyin] 1:17 pm: the Season 1 wig wasn't the best wig though

[Fanwoman] 1:18 pm: yes, something about water
[Purpleyin] 1:18 pm: was it "echoes" with the ghosts in the city in s4?
[dahan] 1:18 pm: the commentary on one of the eps mentioned the diff wigs
[Fanwoman] 1:19 pm: presumably related with other water-related stuff--like showers
[Purpleyin] 1:19 pm: I wonder if Weir has some psych education
[Fanwoman] 1:19 pm: it was so nice in the beginning, talks like this
[dahan] 1:19 pm: too bad they threw out a bunch of this stuff later
[Purpleyin] 1:19 pm: We didn't get much ancient tech with thought control in latter seasons
did we?
[Fanwoman] 1:19 pm: McWhineypants

[Fanwoman] 1:21 pm: it was rhetorical
[dahan] 1:21 pm: I don'[t think Jason would spook any kids who have to live with Wraith on a
daily bases...
[Purpleyin] 1:21 pm: he was always so curious about earth and it could've been a nice way to
explore the cultural difference, not just with teyla but with them. as it was they didn't exactly
have teyla talk of them
[AnyRei] 1:21 pm: haha sheppard
[Fanwoman] 1:21 pm: the real answer was, "Out of the plot"

[dahan]

[dahan] 1:22 pm: lol
[Fanwoman] 1:22 pm: Only someone who can't play hockey would say that
[Fanwoman] 1:22 pm: That man should get more roles
[Purpleyin] 1:22 pm: Chris H?
[Fanwoman] 1:23 pm: yeah
[dahan] 1:23 pm: you're talking to a guy who's going straight to watching a baseball game
after the rewatch
[Purpleyin] 1:23 pm: Have you seen him in Sanctuary?
[dahan] 1:23 pm: Chris H is in a lot of stuff though
[dahan] 1:23 pm: he's pretty big in Japan too from what fans post
[Fanwoman] 1:23 pm: yes, but I was thinking more mainstream
