Maybe he worked on set as a PA or something, and despite loving the show for the same reasons as his friends, he just couldn’t get over how that phrase was ruined for him because he heard every cut take of the dude saying that line.
30 years ago or so I was returning "Unforgiven" to the video rental store. I bumped into one of my dad's friends, who looked at it, looked at me, squinted and said, "Well you sir are a cowardly son of a bitch. You just shot an unarmed man." To which I responded, "ha ha ha. yeah.", instead of the famous: "Well he should've armed himself" line. I still regret it to this day.
I have the Earth Chevron tattooed on my arm and someone said "Shel Kek Nimron" (Jaffa for "I Die Free") once and for like an hour I didn't place it. Once I got home I felt like a moron and had to binge a few of my favorite episodes.
That’s so weird, given how „red“ is usually a sign for „stop“ or „warning“. I mean, it better be blue and red, with red being bad. Like „Blue is cool and red is bad“
It's a historical accident - Socially Awkward Penguin was first and it happened to be blue; Socially Awesome Penguin came later as the reversal, so it was red
What boggles my mind is that the people who make this mistake have almost always been users for around 10 years. I'm sorry to be rude, but how does someone use this hellsite for that long and not know which color is right?
I wish I was creative enough to make a “laughed on the toilet” award. I mean, I’m thinking of it, putting it out there, and picturing it. No, I wish I wasn’t lazy. That’s it.
I'm not blaming Battlestar, it was good for what it was. But it affected a LOT of sci-fi moving forward. There has been this lack of adventure sci-fi since around 2009. Orville and Strange New Worlds are a huge leap forwards, but the interpersonal-drama driven sci-fi needs to stop. Show me aliens and cool planets. Not backstabbing humans banging each other's boyfriends.
I hated the fact that they constantly shit on the Eli character with horrible plot points. Chloe is set up to be his interest, then she bangs Jesus boy. He gets the hot redhead, then she gets murdered. They get stuck on an alien planet in the past? Why not pair him up with the objectively ugliest character ever to be shown on a Stargate show as a last resort because no one else on the crew wanted him?

That's OK they'll think about it later tonight and then every night for the next few weeks then maybe a few more nights in a couple years from now

What color was the car? I hope it was teal(c).

Since watching The Great, me and my wife throw around a lot of indeeds and the occasional huzzah.

Ironic that you used the meme wrong to express your disappointment in them getting their response wrong.

Shouldn't this be the other way around? :P

I can’t even meme correctly! I have always thought it was the opposite
CosplayComet
Blue is for the bad part, red is for the good part. I don't make memes, because I would 100% get it wrong if I was trying ;)

Just let this tired old "meme" from 2011 die.
CreatureFromtheBlackLegume
Red means stop in so many cultures. Blue is calming to most people. The rhyme is catchy, but it contradicts our inate feelings towards color
PreciousPotato
Exactly. Just look at traffic lights.

Ah yes. The show that ruined Stargate because the writers of SGU wanted to emulate the drama. Thanks Battlestar.
SnarkyRedcoat
You’re blaming an awesome show because the writers of a different show tried to emulate it? Blame the writers.

That pilot was... something. That one scene just opens up to Lieutenant McHugeTits getting railed in a broom closet, lol. What the fuck.
