Event Horizon: My journey into Sci-Fi Geekdom…Part Deux
April 21, 2008Told you I would need to start a series! Here’s today’s entry, a little IM conversation between Roomie and I about my recent addiction obsession love of Stargate Atlantis:
Essaytch says:
Ok, I am a N-E-R-D
Essaytch says:
I’m reading Joe’s blog and I noticed this guy posted a comment….
Essaytch says:
He was responding to another person’s comment where they made a reference to “PG”
Essaytch says:
And this guy was all ” ‘PG’ being what?”
Essaytch says:
And my immediate response was to roll my eyes and say to myself “Pegasus Galaxy. Duh.”
Roomie says:
OH
Roomie says:

Roomie says:
GOSH
Roomie says:

You’re going to get sucked in too, I can feel it.
Essaytch says:
And then you’re going to be all “I don’t understand why everyone is so hung up on Sheppard. I mean, McKay is the one who’s REALLY saving everyone’s asses all the time.”
Roomie says:
uh
Roomie says:
not that sucked in!
Essaytch says:
And then I’m gonna say: “But what about Beckett? Why did they have to go and kill him off?!”
Essaytch says:
And you’ll be all: “That ninny Scottish dude? Nah! The new doctor is much better.”
Essaytch says:
And then we will come to blows.
Roomie says:
lol
Roomie says:
Suuuuure!
Essaytch says:
Ok, I’m cracking myself up here. Time to go home.
Someone commit me. Or stick me on the first Space Shuttle to the moon…or any other distant planet. But preferably one in THIS solar system…the Wraith are still FAR TOO BIG of a threat out in Pegasus.
I understood about 30% of this post. Maybe closer to 20%.
Not that that’s a bad thing. Your geekdom is awesome, and spreads joy.
I’m with Michael. I need to refresh my geek roots.
Yeah, y’all need to get on board! The Geek Train is departing the station…don’t let me be the only one on it!
Although in all honesty, I think this little ‘episode’ was due in large part to the fact that my brain was absolutely FRIED after last week (read my “Green” post from yesterday). It was like all my mental faculties shut down and I was giddy with nerdness.
Or it could just be that I am THAT geeky. *sigh* I fear the worst.

Ohhhh. I am glad someone else saves IMs.
Distressingly…I understood every word of this post. I’m not sure I’m proud of that. Sometimes ignorence is bliss.
You’re still alive, right? Should I send for help?
[...] may recall my last Event Horizon update in which I prophesied that Roomie would soon get sucked in by the inescapable pull of popular Sci-Fi [...]
