Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill Ship Appreciation Thread

[Pol]

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I joined a month or so back and have been happily splashing around since!

Pol

I seem to have missed you joining. WELCOME!!!!

And for a definition of broccoli, check out The Shiptionary. It will explain many of the things that confuse the newbies.

[SeNedra]

I am back! (((Family)))

I feel I was away for ages. So what important I missed? What about MOP? I want to get through the posts I didn't read but its more than one hundred!
Its great to be back

*goes back to reading*

I was eating penguin lollies at work today... I lined 14 of them up as a wee MOP army but when the rest were gone, people started stealing the MOP guys as they walked past my desk.

I also had my very first Jaffa cakes... instead of buying real food today I headed to the candy store near my work that sells stuff imported from everywhere. Awesome for homesick Britons and Americans... and the odd curious Kiwi

What are Jaffa cakes? I never heard of them before I became a 'gater, still don't know exactly what they are.

Timezones confuse me too, but B once calculated all starting times:

July 28:
US Pacific - 9:00 pm
US Mountain - 10:00 pm
US Central - 11:00 pm
US Eastern - 12:00 Midnight
UK - 5:00 am
Western Europe - 6:00 am
Eastern Australia: 2:00 pm
New Zealand: 4:00 pm

So... it might

Okay, so I live in Central US, so ship day starts at 11:00 P.M. on July 28 for me? Hehe, maybe I'll stay up late, post for an hour, then get my mom to drive me to the store at midnight for Continuum!

No, sadly he doesn't He's just the MOP penguin. Maybe he should have a name? Any ideas? (All I've got is Moppy )

Personally I think we need a name for him! We've got Broca for the gutter, the Hippy chick for the S.H.I.P., Fluffy for the fluff party, but no name for the mascot of ALL M.O.P. shippers? That's not right! Presently, I don't have any ideas for names, anyone else?

Hi all! And how is everyone today? Sooooo...any more ship news from TPTB? I'm still waiting to hear on those uber-O'Neill/Carters.

OT:

Today I had no less than 3 Stargate moments! They were:

1. Bending the peak of my cap as Jack did in Moebius Part 2! I totally didn't realise what I was doing until after I did it!
   
   
   
2. My Dad, frustrated with something, said "Oh for crying out loud!"
   
   
   
3. My Dad and I were driving by a petrol station and he observed that they should have lowered their prices along with other stations in the country. I suggested that "maybe they're not getting all their memos". Again, I didn't realise what I was saying until after I said it and realised the significance.

I grew up with my Dad saying "For crying out loud!" He also was fond of "For Pete's sake!" but I don't use that one so much.
Of course, I'm pretty sure he meant the saint, not the cop.

I'm not sure if you've posted it before. I just visited JM's blog and LOOK what I found

Ahahahah this is great!

[mad_gater]

Hey everyone,

Okay, so I was treating myself to a rewatch of CotG today - for fanficcing purposes - and realized that even in that very first episode, there's LOTS of Sam/Jack stuff. Even in the framing of shots.

So...being me, I had to then quantify that. To save bandwidth I'll put my caps here...

*snipped*

Okay, so this was weird, right? ::shakes head:::

Gah...I have to get some writing done! LOL

nice caps......

NOOOOO!!!!! I LOVE broccoli just the way it is! It's yummy, yummy, yummy, and if scientists change it into peas, I'm going to send Teal'c over to them to teach them a lesson. Then they'll know not to mess with my (our!) broccoli!

On a slightly happier note, good morning my loving shippy fam!

What are we discussing today?

Oh and Egle1, love the flag project! So many countries, it's mind-boggling! We shippers are EVERYWHERE!!!!! Great job!

also if they think making broccoli taste like peas is gonna get kids to eat it then they are sadly mistaken....because I don't know any kids who like peas either.....

I don't even like peas

never was a fan of broccoli either till I actually decided to try it at a restaurant.....I think it might be starting to grow on me.....at least if it'ssteamed with just a light touch of butter.....

Since Queen Jann isn't here right now, I, as her Loyal Advisor in the Gutter Army, present the newbies with this:

Join us in the gutter with your love of Sam and Jack!!!! We have chocolate!!!

and also full body massages provided by yours truly...

What are Jaffa cakes? I never heard of them before I became a 'gater, still don't know exactly what they are.

They're sort of a cross between a cake and a biscuit. Layer of sponge, layer of orange jam/jello, topped by a layer of dark chocolate. I personally hate them

Okay, so I live in Central US, so ship day starts at 11:00 P.M. on July 28 for me? Hehe, maybe I'll stay up late, post for an hour, then get my mom to drive me to the store at midnight for Continuum!

Sounds like a plan I won't get Continuum until about the 8th August

Personally I think we need a name for him! We've got Broca for the gutter, the Hippy chick for the S.H.I.P., Fluffy for the fluff party, but no name for the mascot of ALL M.O.P. shippers? That's not right! Presently, I don't have any ideas for names, anyone else?

I can't think of anything good either. Naming our Hippy chick was soooo easy

Broccoli !!!!

I am in the central US too...that means that it starts at 11:00 PM on July 27th.

First draft:

And I'm listening.

I love this version, better than the 2nd from my opinion...

Oh, sorry! Confirmation... then it's:

* Estonia - kinnitus, konfirmatsioon, kinnitamine
* USA
* England
* Scotland - "daingneachadh" (Scottish Gaelic)
* Wales - "cadarnhâd" (Welsh)
* Australia
* Macedonia - "Potvrda"
* New Zealand "whaka?"
* Russia - "?????????????"
* The Netherlands (Holland) - ''Bevestiging'' / ''Confirmatie''
* Sweden
* Poland
* Czech Republic
* Belgium
* Canada
* Trinidad West Indies
* Germany - "Bestätigung"
* France - Confirmation

We are supposed to put the word "confirmation" in your own language? Mine isn't hard...

Welcome to the thread, SamONeill!

From me too!!!

I think they're supposed to be like a small cake the size of a cookie or something and filled with some kind of icing like filling.....though I'm sure eileen would prefer eating a different kind of Jaffa cake.....one that's tall, dark-skinned, broad-shouldered, and muscular.....

wow....I think the temp. in eileens neck of the woods just shot up.....

[JenniferJF]

So, having made my way now to Cold Lazarus. Something I've never really noticed before, but which I find.. interesting.

When we first see Sara, when Jack goes to his old house, she's working on her car's engine.

lol.

At least the boy's consistent.

[mad_gater]

also to add to the flag discussion if the CSA (Confederated States of America) were still in existence you'd be using their classic trade mark flag of a blue cross on a reddish orange background with 13 white stars lined up in each part of the cross....

also I think the USA should have confirmation in it's native language....does anyone know American Indian for the phrase "Land of Creeping Fascism?"

[TrueRomantic]

Mm, felt the need to post this. Again.

It's a good thing I was already in the gutter!!! It would have hurt when I fainted otherwise!

Timezones confuse me too, but B once calculated all starting times:

July 28:
US Pacific - 9:00 pm
US Mountain - 10:00 pm
US Central - 11:00 pm
US Eastern - 12:00 Midnight
UK - 5:00 am
Western Europe - 6:00 am
Eastern Australia: 2:00 pm
New Zealand: 4:00 pm

So... it might

If Ship Day is July 28th, shouldn't those times start on July 27th? Otherwise, Ship Day would be on July 29th, and I don't think that would work for anyone getting the movie then.

If you go by US East Coast time as 12 midnight on the 28th, that would make this list more like this:

July 27:
US Pacific - 9:00 pm
US Mountain - 10:00 pm
US Central - 11:00 pm
July 28:
US Eastern - 12:00 Midnight
UK - 5:00 am

Eastern Australia: 2:00 pm

At least, I think that's the way it should be.

Yeah, I think it might be time for my next appointment Joe, lol!!!

And I like peas! I've always liked peas!! And spinach, corn, beets, and French Style green beens! But then, I never complained about shots either...I actually used to ask for more...

But broccoli and onions are two things I can't stand!!!

[DutchIndeed]

Egle, forgot to comment on the banners! I like them! Very colourfull and international I liked the first one best... Even if there are penguins sitting on my flag

Oooh! How about MOP?
Mop's Original Penguin

never was a fan of broccoli either till I actually decided to try it at a restaurant.....I think it might be starting to grow on me.....at least if it's steamed with just a light touch of butter.....

Broccoliiiiiiiii yummmmmmm.... You know you want it...
It's great steamed! Broccoli smoke is the best!

I can't think of anything good either. Naming our Hippy chick was soooo easy

Broccoli !!!!

...Notice how fitting Broccoli is to The Party?
He's walking circles in broccoli induced daze while almost stumbling over it's own feet...
I'm such a proud co-mommy...

You're right, but I was to lazy to do so
You know... copy and paste...
