In celebration of this, I want to make this. You know, so everybody knows all about my toaster origins.
In related news, Nick’s gotten me into watching Battlestar Galactica. Can you tell? So far, I like. I may have watched all of season 1 yesterday. Maybe. Tonight appears to be Season 2 night.
Also, I want to do dirty things to Starbuck. If someone could arrange this, that’d be awesome.
I agree with your feelings about Starbuck. She’s completely hot. I’ll take her and Lee Adama, please.
Seasons 1 & 2 are the best.
I think we all want to do dirty things to Starbuck, or maybe have Starbuck do dirty things to us.
See one of the things that was a very difficult suspension of disbelief for me was that as sexual as 6 and Baltar were that they never once did it doggy style resulting in Baltar going “What the hell is up with your spine?”
I have been bitching about this to Nick SO MUCH. Hell, even the Chief & Sharon should have figured that one out.
That’s the cylon detector that I mentioned in on facebook: Systematically screw everyone doggy style.
Maybe a little harder to detect with men (the physical logistics are a little harder that way), but you’ll just have to have a threesome and have one person observing the spine. Or, some good old fashioned pegging will solve everything. WAY faster than that silly 11 hour nuclear test Gaius came up with.
Also: How exactly can their physiology be basically the same? Doesn’t an x-ray show, say, the LED’s attached to their spine? ;)
Yeah I was gonna suggest pegging though for the people who wouldn’t be to keen on it how about a good old fashioned mirror on the ceiling.
The problem is that women can easily fake orgasms.
So if you bang a female Cylon and she seems to have come and her spine didn’t turn red, can you conclude anything? No, you cannot. Whereas when the motor oil shoots out of Mr. Cylon’s piston, yet there was no spine-glow… you know.
In terms of the Cylons having abilities with zero physiological basis, I’ve been complaining about that aggressively for years, and BSG fans have been sticking their fingers in their ears and humming as loudly as they can. I suspect you read my recent note on this topic.
Also: Starbuck? Come on. Cigar-chomping, over-the-top, swaggering gender-blender type. But I’m with you about Boomer. So very with you.
It’s also extremely problematic that the sleeper Cylons never noticed any of their own special abilities.
