Close the iris!
Wait we are getting a transponder signal!
Open the- wait who is it?
it's Selmak, sir. and he says he's not gonna be a frustrating douche like last time
Open the iris a little bit.
you totally changed the trajectory of my night, thank you
Selmak was frustrating, but never a douche, in my opinion.
In fact, Jacob had such a strong impact on Selmak that they became almost a liability as far as the other tokra were concerned. He was too tempted to ignore thousands of years of protocol and precedent to assist the SGC.
It's a riff I have going with my wife that no one wants to hang out with the Tok'ra, and especially no one wants to hang out with the ancients, however, all of the great races want to hang with O'neil because (in your best Thor impression) "he's a good hang"
Another one?!
Chevron 7 Locked
You technically don't have to say Locked on the last one, but it's Standard Operating Procedure by Walter to do so.
Fun fact: the actor ad-libbed in "locked" instead of "encoded" originally, and it worked well enough that it became a thing right then, pretty much.
Protip: Read the article before you out yourself as a moron for not understanding that they are talking about structural features of melting polar ice.
Jokes on you, I read the article and I’m STILL gonna out myself as a moron! Checkmate Evangelathiests!
Ya can’t stop the fun train with simple facts. /s

Damn, I was hoping for a slumbering ancient evil that could put us all out of our misery.
Those unknown structures?
Using sonar, Ran mapped 54 square miles of ice underside beneath Dotson Ice Shelf. The maps revealed flat plateaus, terraced steps, and teardrop-shaped pits, all carved by basal melt, melting that attacks the ice from below.
In the east and center, Ran saw icy terraces stacked like steps, while the west looked smoother, with channels and scooped depressions.
None of these terraces or teardrop pits show up on satellite images, so they had remained completely hidden until Ran’s mission.
structural features of melting polar ice.
Nope, it's R'lyeh

You're not the boss of me! I'll do what I want!
Excuse me but Ill keep my alarmist hyperbole thankyou verymuch!
Earth.com is, in my experience, ridiculously clickbaity and sensationalist. The open-access article recounting this (that the OP article just regurgitates) is here. (I know this is a memes community; don't @ me.)

Meta question: can someone enlighten me on the source/background of the image used for this meme? Is it from some movie?
