Bwahhahahah! "In the closeup, we can see smoke rising from either Sarek or the surgical unit. Um. That's reassuring. And the thing is, with TOS, you can't be entirely sure that they meant to do that. It could just be that something on the set caught on fire and they kept filming. --thefourthvine"

Hilarious and very true.

I was watching an episode of Doctor Who last night that I hadn't seen in years, and I remember it being really creepy when I was a kid. But watching it now ,as an adult, I realized that the disgusting plague slowly eating away at this one character that I remember being freaked out by was literally bubble wrap, painted green, and then affixed to the actor in various spots.

Oh yeah, some of the affects and props in the old Dr. Who were truly....er, well, they were quite something. Although, nothing quite beats the guy dressed up as a giant carrot in Lost In Space. ;)

Arc in Space, right? Tom Baker? I love the bubble wrap bit! Any time I start with, "One time on Doctor Who..." you know I'm going to end up there.

I would have watched the hell out of the SG-1 where it's Catherine, Jacob, Bra'tac and Hammond bopping around the universe thwacking people with staff weapons and looking nonplussed.

...wait. You mean it wasn't?

Sadly I don't think they ever gave Catherine a staff weapon.

Oh, wow, baby's first quotedump! *is excited*

And hey, I remember that day and that explosion! It feels like forever ago. I wonder whatever happened to those guys' experiment.

And I would totally watch that version of SG-1. (wasn't pepper_field writing it a little? hm)

They either had a funny footnote for the paper, or agreed NEVER TO SPEAK OF THIS AGAIN.

In that vein: Things I Won't Work With. I actually don't speak enough chemistry to get more than about a quarter of the jokes, but I can't remember if you might...

I asked my mom what oral sex was (I'd read mention of it in a newspaper) and she told me it meant kissing. I did not figure that one out for literally years. Every time I read some awful story about molestation or whatever, I thought it was about unwanted kissing and didn't quite get what all the fuss was about.
