Well it was partly that, but at the end of the day, he got up (not that he could sit....) and came to their rescue despite being injured!
best whumpy Shep S3
wow, gotta agree with CG i think for physical. I'd go with Sunday for emotional.Spoiler:when DH was having Rodney fiddle with the nasal canula, and seemed to be pushing it up his nose! It just looked painful and irritating!!!sigpic

Congrats to the milestoners, Erika, 1000, Ali, 11300, Linzi 13100, and any others!
Great to see you're back Bebop!
Dang, I did miss that! I was reading the blog during an ad break in Sunday.
Mmmm, I used to work in a place in Brisbane that had the best sausage and chip butties. Oh, flashback!
I just hope that SciFi realizes that if they are using the S3 ratings to order a S5!
I hope all the whumped whumpers feel better soon. We seem to have all been in the wars lately!
I have to run. Going to a Christening!
Congrats to all the milestoners!!!
Erika, 1000,
Ali, 11300

Originally posted by bebop View PostWell I can officially say that I'm STUFFED!!!..The new Crusty Fondue Pizza dippy thing was FAB!
On the subject of beer, I've just discovered a couple of gooduns in Waitrose. Kronenberg Blanc is a fruity light beer which is yummy and Coopers Brewery Australian wheat beer is fab too, I'm drinking both, but not enough to get sloshed as I can't handle too much, it doesn't mix well with the labyrinthitis!
Originally posted by Alipeeps View PostGack. Sorry, can't stand blanc/weiss beer. Hubby likes em... I think they're horrible! Mind you, if you do like blanc beer you should try drinking it the way they do in France.. with a slice of lemon in it!
I've done what is probably a very silly thing... I've just had two mugs of filter coffee. I bought hubby a fabby complex coffee maker thing as a present a couple of years ago - one of those with a percolator, an expresso thing and a milk steamer - and we rarely use it. Neither of us drink much coffee but every now and then hubby likes to have a nice proper coffee. So I decided to crank the thing up today and try out the Jack Daniels coffee that I bought in Lynchburg last year and have had lying round ever since... only hubby decided he didn't want any... so I drank it all myself! And very nice it was too... but... I rarely drink coffee and very rarely filter coffee. So I'm feeling a wee bit wired right now! And will probably crash and burn later on!
But in the meantime, I am making use of the buzz and getting busy with the writing... *runs*
Originally posted by bebop View PostI know what you mean about fresh coffee...I can only drink about two at the most then I go gaga..I normally stick to decaf. We bought a Nespresso coffee maker last year, its a pod machine but you can only get the pods on line. I love it cause theres a choice of about 25 different types as well as about 5 decafs. It was one of the best gadgets we bought cause its a doddle to use and theres no mess and the coffee has a fab crema top.

omg my mum just asked me what a whumper is!?!!! argh that was a hard one to explain.....why did i sit downstairs lol she didnt look at me like im crazy though...
Originally posted by Josie View PostWe use it here in East Anglia too, though we will more often say bacon sarnie. It's always chip butty though... mmm chip butty. *drools*
It does indeed, another one to look forward to, actually I think I'm pretty much looking forward to all the season four episodes we've heard about, unlike last year I have yet to hear one plot idea/tidbit that has left me thinking "what were they smoking when they came up with that?"
Ooh now that sounds like a nice angsty plot, I've not read any of the SGA novels but that one could tempt me.
I like the SGA books the last one was my least favourite so far, I hope the new ones are good, this time I most definitely will not be ordering them from Amazon.
Originally posted by Linzi View PostHow could I forget? That scream was soooo wonderfully done! We need some more of that!
Originally posted by Linzi View PostI found Chosen to be a bit choppy, if you know what I mean...it didn't flow very well, I thought. I liked the basic story premise though, and thought the characters seemed well written, and heySpoiler:there's whump! Both Rodney and Sheppy! I do enjoy a little whump every now and then, you know!
Spoiler:Shep clonked on the head and face down in the tar not breathing!!!! then coming rounf only to get kicked & knocked out again and then him being nekkid under a sheet after the women clean off the tar oh and near the end when he passes out while piloting the jumper

Originally posted by Pegasus_SGA View PostHiya hon *waves back* I think they might object to every ep being whumpy, hehehe, but seeing how season 4 is turning out You never know. I'd like some backstory to, but intertwined with the actual story (not a stand alone) as I think that would be too hard unless they..
Rambling
Spoiler:Have Shep severely injured with a head trauma and keeps having flashbacks to his past, or some alien device snares him and he's forced to relive all his fears and trauma's that led him to be where he is today ala Phantoms, but on a larger scale or he's put on trial for something and part of their process is to delve into his subconscious mind and get what they need... nah too much like whatsisface I'd love him to have more hallucinations and everything he sees hears and feels takes him back to his most troubled times and the only way out of it, is to deal with some of his issues.
Originally posted by Pegasus_SGA View PostI saw that, and hope that it involvesSpoiler:Shep in the shower. he can't possibly be quarantined until all contaminants have been removed from his person as he'd infact the other members of the team. I wonder if someone brought something back from another planet? I love the idea of relationships being put to the test. Maybe the contaminant (if there is one) has an adverse side affect that plays on people's worst fears or alters their personality in some way? I love emotional angst.

I wondered about the BAMSR and thought maybeSpoiler:Shep and the team go on trial for something? Or it's a time travel ep and they have the opportinuty to change what went wrong in the past that has had a direct impact on what's happening now?

Reliquary had such great whumpy stuff in it though. I'm struggling with Entanglement... I'm just not 'seeing' it as much as i'd liked. Maybe it's because I haven't read it right the way through..

OMG you're not one of those... whumpers are you?
Originally posted by Pegasus_SGA View Post*hugs IF* me to hon, i'm trying to kick myself up the ass. Let's just say it's proving problematic
Originally posted by Pegasus_SGA View Post
And we all know it's just about the comfort. Seeing someone in pain is just not squee. For example I definately don't want to see Shep
S4
Spoiler:Beaten and bound with his blood drawn for his ATA gene. And I have absolutely no desires to see Shep hot and sweaty suffering from nightmares or being plagued by an evil entity or having Evil Shep. I don't even want him fevered and nauseus... so I definatly am with you on this.
*bangs her nose on the way out*
Hehehe just been watching McKay in 48 hours, he looks so young, and was actually less snarky than I remembered him in this.
McKay does look young in 48 hours, doesn't he?sigpic

Just realised I meant to answer Linzi's whump question but started watching Dr Who *sniff* oh and BTWSpoiler:I am now gonna be really scared when I go past a mirror or a scarecrow!!!
Best whump moment of S3 has to be CG it really can't be any other for me, as for angsty moment, that one I am not sure on, I haven't seen Sateda yet but from the transcripts the moment Linzi talked about does sound like a pretty angst filled moment. I like the angst in Sunday and the little peeks of angst in Vengeance and The Ark but I can't pick out one definitive one, maybe when we get the S3 discs I will get to see all of the eps an make an infomed decision

But in Sunday the loss of a good friend is a different kind of emotional beating, and John just looks so sad in that funeral scene you just want to hug him! Personally, I can't choose between the two.

It just looked painful and irritating!!!

OTSpoiler:i felt so sorry for him having to decide, and when he started crying!! *sniffs*
And yes, the mirror thing is going to creep me out now!!
Scarecrows already creeped me out, now i'm going to freak when i see one! They're scarier than the daleks!

So, the whole point of my little ramble above, is, I was wondering what you guys rate as the best whumpy Sheppard moment in season 3? Firstly for phyical whump, and secondly for emotional whump?
Mine are, obviously, CG for physical, and Sateda for emotional whump. Anybody got any favourite moments?
I must agree that nothing beats CG for physical whump in Season 3.
For emotional whump I think that Phantoms had a pretty strong moment.
**sorry Roo**
Spoiler:When Teyla asked if his buddy had made it, the look on his face said it all.
Even though the bit in Phantoms was very brief, for some reason it stands out in my mind. There were other, deeper scenes during the season. Sunday **sniff** comes to mind.
Back to creating my slideshow. **sigh**sigpic
