Also we see that the Goauld do understand all this technology (the examples springing to mind is Baal re-engineering and purposing the Avenger virus and the one who created naqadriah on Langara; yes I am watching S7 why do you ask), they just don't play it up because they're already perceived as gods by their subjects.

Humans saying the Goauld don't create technology they just steal it are just being space racists, change my mind.

Exactly. All the Goa'uld ships are built by the Goa'uld. They aren't some Ancient ships they found. Now, they did probably find/scavenge the tech originally, but then figured it out. Just like the Tau'ri.

There's nothing wrong with this, I was just pointing out the double standard when referring to the Goa'uld with derision, as "scavengers".

We've also seen minor Goa'uld with technological focus. Niriti was doing advanced research; Baal had the glutton Goa'uld who was wicked smart. Etc.

That actually makes me wonder how the genetic memory poo poo works. Like, they’re a queen based species so how does new knowledge get integrated into the mix as they go along?

i think its not just the queens knowledge or else how would scar have apothis's knowledge. i think new knowledge is passed on at the time of when the sperm / egg are created but then the tokra queen had no male so who knows

You put that stuff on a cardboard box to be vaporated by the kawoosh. You don't want someone walking onto P3L-661 on a mission and start an investigation over all the beer cans they found scattered all around the gate.

Cut to the debriefing room.

"Wait..." Carter would pause for a moment to make sure she was understanding Daniel correctly. "You're basing our need to go undercover at a college fraternity to find a secret Stargate because we found a pile of beer cans on another planet?"

"A pile of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer cans!" Daniel circles the letters PBR on the whiteboard, then goes into history of the beer's popularity with college hipsters.

More likely to be Coors Light, which tbf was my beer of choice for drinking games in college.

Also, a solid "lol" that the Stargate fandom wiki has a "Beer" page because of course it does.

"Teal'c, on the other hand, doesn't drink beer or any other forms of alcohol, as it could have adverse effects for his symbiote. (SG1: "Fire and Water", "Lost City, Part 2")"

What's even the point of being a god if you can't even drink, wtf (unless it's like a Goa'uld version of fetal alcohol syndrome in which case fair enough)

Jack drinks a lot of beer. Basically any time you see him at home, he's drinking.

No Coors references, but there is a Guinness in a bottle reference, which was an odd call for Jack IMO.

Agreed. I thought Jack really sucked with the Tok'ra too. Total disrespect and mistrust. Jack was pretty bad with a lot of aliens, but oddly, he got the most important one super right, apparently - the Asgard, who really seemed to love him.

Also, he's super cool with Teal'c when a lot of other folks would take him away and study him.

To be fair, Jack was high on ancient knowledge (which as a sentence, owns. i love stargate lol)

Click the link, my friend, it's a comprehensive wiki article of every time beer was shown or mentioned through all of the series.

And it's the antifandom link so it's got all the bullshit stripped out

I clicked. Actually glad to see Coors Light was on the show, because realistically, it should all be Coors or Coors Light.

What's especially charming about this scene is Jack's commitment to the bit. He didn't get a tee and a ball and play some golf, he dressed himself and Tealc up in appropriate clothing.

Do you think they went shopping for golf clothes that fit Tealc?

I like to think Jack and Teal'c actually golfed quite a bit.

I assume there was an Air Force course close by they could play at if they wanted.

Agree it's a great episode, disagree about the Tok'ra.

I loved Jack 360 slo mo no scope at the end, and then Bra'tac's speech.

Also, this is the kind of episode that highlights how great SG1 is.

This is years of storylines coming together into a new story, and showing how the Tau'ri become ascendent in the galaxy.

Here, you can see how it's only the Tau'ri that can bring groups together against the common enemy of the Goa'uld.

This is less gross when you realize they are clones and have to have Asgard soup already cooked up that has never had life. Still hosed up, but less.
