Summary: It is beyond simply being 'messed up'.
This was going to become the planet, or at least one of the many planets to be put on the list of Planets Never to Return to Ever. One would be surprised at how many there actually are for SGA. PX73-9081 was a tropical paradise complete with a rain forest right near a beach with epic waves.
Colonel Sheppard loved the place at first. He was considering it as a Beta site. He changed his mind after not too long go.
McKay ran far ahead of the rest at Sheppard's urging that he get back to the 'gate and dial home. Sheppard, Ronon, and Teyla were behind, blasting away at the wave of bugs, easily the size of a crow, only resembling giant hornets equipped with some marvelous stingers and jade-turquoise eyes. Those were almost pretty and were what had attracted Sheppard to their nest in the first place, glinting in the light as they had. There were just so many things wrong with this place that everything pretty tried to kill them.
"Why does this galaxy even have things like this?" McKay gasped.
He skidded to a halt in the small clearing, mouth agape. The DHD was writhing, covered from base to platform with large, wormlike creatures.
"Crap."

Summary: They're all pretty used to it.
Elizabeth was only slightly surprised when Colonel Sheppard's team dived through the Stargate three hours early from their latest mission. Ronon actually slid a few feet, spun, and continued to fire into the gate while Rodney screamed at Teyla to 'get it off' and Sheppard ordered the 'gate to be shut down. They did. Elizabeth watched, partially dazed, as some kind of bug flew out of the back of Rodney's shirt who continued to flay around, screaming about not wanting to be turned into a bug. Ronon shot it, and the bug fell on the floor twitching. Sheppard then proceeded to empty the entire clip from his P-90 into it, making a mess of the floor.
Everyone stared, the SGO rooms quiet, except for Rodny who now complained loudly about never going off-world again, as they processed what just happened.
"So," Elizabeth began, crossing her arms behind her back, "I take it the planet isn't an appropriate Beta site."
Still breathing hard, Sheppard looked up at her, scowling.
"No. Not unless you like bugs. In which case, move right on over there, because that place is freaking bug heaven!"
"Okay, John. Calm down."
"I AM COMPLETELY CALM!"
"Just...okay, John."
They all proceeded out of the SGO, Rodney twitching and complaining of seeing spots, Teyla trying to soothe him.

Summary: Rodney complains. John is a listening ear.
“Ugh. That guy.”
“Which guy, Rodney?”
“That, that…Jackson.”
“Daniel?”
“Do you know any other Jacksons? It’s ridiculous, how everyone just fawns over the guy. You’d think he was Einstein reborn or something. But no, all he’s done is ascend and descend like it’s nothing more than a yo-yo trick, translate some alien texts, and suddenly you’re a big shot. Has he ever averted certain doom so many times he’s forgotten just how many?”
“Not sure. But I don’t think he’s ever blown up a sola-“
“Do not. Go there with me, Sheppard.”
“What’re you gonna do?”
“Bugs.”
“Okay, you know what I think? You’re jealous.”
“That’s so funny I forgot to laugh. Remind me later, will you?”
“No, listen. He’s this young, genius -“
“Debatable.”
“With really thick hair and a string of girlfriends.”
“He’s overrated.”
“All right, I was wrong. You’re not jealous. You’re just simply not happy unless you’re complaining about something.”
“…sometimes, it’s a little disturbing that you’ve come to know me so well.”
