hehehe. Er. Galactica + sex + #subcafe = silly discussion (and geekery)
Okay, so I find it funny. But then, I've been quoted as saying I'm cheap and easy.
* Lyssie amuses herself by reading people complaining about sex in Galactica.
<Mys_Teri> What is wrong with sex? It's not like it's on early or anything.
<Mike_Smith> Teri: I think she means people complaining about how the sex on Galactica is done. Like they use horses and elbows to do it.
<Mys_Teri> Mike: I really did not need to think of sex and horses at the same time. ;)
<Mike_Smith> Teri: Well, it's just people rubbing them on the butt with their elbows, so it's not _such_ a bad image. Unless the characters on Galactica like to talk dirty.
<Lyssie> Teri: People think they should have family-rated Galactica. Y'know, because all SF should be family shows.
* Mys_Teri headdesks.
<Mys_Teri> More of the "Think of the children" crap!
<Mys_Teri> Hello if you get SF you either have sat or cable and there are many many family channels out there!
<Mike_Smith> Isn't it bad enough that they made Battlestar Galactica for adults? Do we have to make children watch it, too?
<Lyssie> Oh! But SF is a family-oriented genre!
* Lyssie sticks her tongue out at Mike
<Mike_Smith> Lyss: What kind of sexual situations are they even doing anyway? I know the Ceylons can disguise themselves as beautiful women, but besides that. I mean, if this uproar is over a few scenes of two people sharing a bed, I won't be impressed.
<Mys_Teri> And boy do I mean many many. Like far to many. I swear the only channels I watch regularly on directtv are Boomerang, Cartoon Network, Food Network, the history and science ones and SF.
<Mys_Teri> Then I have about a metric crapload of Family, Religious and Shopping to avoid.
<Jim_Smith> Mike: Incidentally, I am so sick of hearing about how hot that one blonde Cylon is.
<Lyssie> TeriMum: Yeah. Ugh.
<Lyssie> Mike: er. there was masturbation, once. And naked backs...
<Mike_Smith> Lyss: Masturbation? Not to sound prudish, but did they _really_ need to include that? A shower scene I could understand, or some sort of physical.
<Lyssie> Mike: I know. It's so despiccable, and it lowers the morals of our society so.
<Lyssie> After all, what would happen if people realized masturbation wasn't a guilty pleasure anymore?
<Mike_Smith> Lyss: No, I mean, what possible plotline demands a masturbation scene? I really want to know.
<Jim_Smith> Yeah, I'm picturing a whole episode about people worrying about Cylons, and then all of a sudden Admiral Max Weinberg is choking his chicken.
<Mike_Smith> It's like NYPD Blue and Dennis Franz's bare ass. I'm not pissed because ABC showed bare ass on TV, I'm pissed because they aired a big fat hairy ass on TV, mainly for its own sake. I refuse to accept that the ass furthered the storyline.
<Lyssie> There has to be a plot reason?
<Jim_Smith> I guess not, but if there was one I'd be curious to know what it was.
* Jim_Smith recalls the TNG episode where the sex alien gives Riker blue balls and he let's it be known he'll be in the holodeck.
<Mike_Smith> Jim: Which one was that?
<Jim_Smith> The one where the lady was named Kamala.
<Mike_Smith> Sheesh. And she wasn't even that hot.
<Jim_Smith> She gets him all hot and bothered and then walks off, and he's all "Riker to bridge, I'll be in the holodeck if you need me," and I'm like "Yeah. Jacking off. Huh huh huh."
<Lyssie> The one with Jean Grey!
<Jim_Smith> Oh yeah, I was trying to remember what she was famous for! She was Famke Janssen.
<Lyssie> It was called 'The Perfect Mate', and it was fifth season.
<Mike_Smith> But yes, that's what I'm saying. Battlestar Galactica should have their own euphemism for "I'm gonna go jerk it if anyone needs me." Unless your penis produces special medicine that cures cancer, I'm pretty sure it serves no purpose seeing you play with it.
<Jim_Smith> Anyway, if it were anyone else, there'd be a benefit of the doubt, but Riker spends every possible minute enjoying simulated fantasy women.
<Mike_Smith> That was Famke Janssen?
<Jim_Smith> Yeah.
<Lyssie> *snicker* I don't think Baltar's man-juice will cure anything.
<Lyssie> Which was why her playing opposite Stewart was so amusingly wrong...
<Mike_Smith> I'll be damned. Somewhere between that episode and Goldeneye, she must have gotten better looking. Or I got old enough to appreciate it. Probably the latter. I haven't sat through that episode in a long time.
<Jim_Smith> Oh yeah, he was also in...uh...well, I guess everyone knew that.
<Jim_Smith> Mike: For some reason Famke orgasming with her legs wrapped around a guy, and Famke with red hair and a tight leather bodysuit, are more hot than Famke standing around telling Captain Picard how awesome Shakespeare and tea are.
<Mike_Smith> Lyss: Then why show it? The whole point of _owning_ a TV is to see stuff you wouldn't normally be able to see. Masturbation is the sexual equivalent of a phone-dialing scene. Anybody at home could do it themselves.
<Jim_Smith> Mike: They show it so people can get off to it.
<Mike_Smith> Jim: Point. Oh, well, at least Baltar's torrid love affair with himself will protect impressionable children from watching Battlestar Galactica.
