My, space is certainly full of things

Was playing Mass Effect right before watching SGA midseason finale (um, guys? Those words, I don't think they mean what you think they mean). I am becoming further convinced that this game is not-so-secretly a homage to every other freaking sci-fi show/movie out there, and that someone at a certain Canadian software company is most certainly a Stargate fan. Not am I only running around looking for Ancient Prothean technology and fighting off replicators Reapers and Geth with a main character named Sheppard Shepard, jumping from planet-to-planet via stargates mass point jump gates built by the Ancients Protheans, while running around a random planet, I ran into a pyramid.

Yes, a pyramid.

Housemate #1's and my jaws dropped in disbelief before we burst out laughing. The thing, I swear to god, looked like a Goa'uld ship.

And then we watched SGA. This Mortal Coil )
