Okay, it’s not Atlantis but it is Stargate!
I was watching clips of the SG-1 episode where Carter and O’Neill go through the second Earth gate and are trapped.
What’s entirely funny about that whole situation (outside of the fat that’s the famous McGuyver ad lib by Amanda Tapping) is that Daniel asks Teal’c ‘what happens when you dial your own number?’ then immediately realizes his mistake and asks General Hammond.
Everyone should know the answer if only from TV or books, but you get a busy signal is the answer.
I love that the series is dated because it always felt so close to reality you know? As if any second you could see a Deathglider flying overhead being chased by Air Force pilots.
Of course, if you’d seen that and reported it anywhere you’d be considered a conspiracy nut. Even if you had video evidence from your cell phone, technology is at a place that AI could easily replicate the scenario and the governments would discredit you pretty much immediately…
If other people online didn’t beat them to it.
Interesting times y’all.
Until we meet again! (Next Monday of course!!)
