Another demonstration of how frightening my mind is

As I was doing my semi-regular windexing of the ants (they come in my window, make a perfect ant trail across two short walls (my room is very oddly shaped, yes) and descend on a corner that has absoutely nothing in it and has been scrubbed several times), I fouund myself panicking and thinking, "Oh, this is bad. I've got to get ant traps or find a new way to kill these suckers before the windex stops working because they've evolved!" and then going, "No, wait, moron, that's replicators and asurans. Whew!"

Most of the time, I haven't been that fond of Weir.  She didn't get enough screen time in the middle of the action or enough background to make me like her as her own character.  Too often, it seemed like she was used as an excuse to get Rodney to re-explain something to the audience, which a) gets old if I understood the first time and b) doesn't give her credit for the intelligence she clearly must have.  So you're not surprised to learn that I'm happy with Lifeline.

I should justify, though:  If you had to go out, that was a pretty kickass way to go!  She plays mind games with Oberon and wins for a while.  She makes it posssible for the team to get a ZPM and save Atlantis.  She provides Rodney with the base code that tells him that the Asurans were created to attack the Wraith and helps them reactivate that code. The only thing missing is a massive explosions to satisfy the pyro at heart!
Also, I have discovered that you can make fried eggs in a microwave!!!! How amazing is that? Anyway, there's even a video to show you how!
