Note to Self

I am never writing Shifu from SG-1 again. Ever.

He can take his metaphors and shove them.

That is all.

Gotta love the ancient mystical bullshit. Sometimes I wonder why TPTB decided it'd be a good idea to make Oma and the Others so freaking cryptic. Maybe they just want us fanficcers to extensively exercise our brains, or something.

I don't think *they* get it. So, if they just come up with some stuff and say it's mystical, then by default it's unknown to everyone and stays mystical. Easy out!

I watched the commentary on "Absolute Power" once; they admitted that most of the time they make it up (like the wick thing), and sometimes they can sound clever, but other times even they have no idea what it means. They had to have DELIBERATELY mangled the candlight-is-fire one though.

It is too clear and so it is hard to see.
A dunce once searched for fire with a lighted lantern.
Had he known what fire was,
He could have cooked his rice much sooner.
