| Stargate: Atlantis "Motivational" Desktop Wallpapers
Awhile back on Livejournal, Isis wanted to see some SGA equivalents of
the Star Trek "Motivational" posters that float around on the
internet. You've probably seen them in your inbox occasionally if
you're a nerd or if you're one of those weird people who likes and
sends on forwards. (Shame on you! Shaaaame!)
So, here they are. A lot of them. Some of them contain spoilers for certain events in the series. If you are not up-to-date, you might not want to scan through these yet. Each poster is 1024 x 768 resolution and so will fit a base desktop like that, or, if you have a weird resolution like me, just set your background to black and centre it. Credit, commentary and full text are below each thumbnail. Click to view the full-size image. Enjoy! |

Star Trek was actually a documentary. The ancients were all over that phaser action. Why do you think John is such a sex-magnet? [John would never attract the non-humanoid species of aliens the way Rodney did, but he had found himself on the wrong end of a Wraith's mating practices a few times. He liked to pretend those times hadn't happened.] |
Ancients are not nearly as interesting as you might think. Mostly, they meditate. [Even Ancient!Sex is like meditation. It's kind of creepy.] |

Bedhead. Some people develop it as a side-effect to their genius--they are too busy to fix stupid hair. Some people get it from last minute goodbye sex with Sheppard in a parallel universe you just fucked up. Because |
Best Friends. They even have matching friendship bracelets that explode if you aren't a good friend. Rodney made them. |
|||
The Bible is full of awesome pick-up lines. Like 'Get ye behind me'. Thanks, Jen. |
Bondage. For fun, profit and team-building. (This one's for Actually, John didn't mind the weekly bondage games. It was just that people were already questioning his wristband, and there's only so much chaffing one of those things can cover. |
|||
Bravado. In a coccoon, no one can tell when you wet yourself. |
Caldwell. Just because a nasty alien parasite took over your brain doesn't mean you can't still bag chicks with your hot spaceship. |
|||
Catfight. We aim to please. |
Cocoon. The real reason Ronon became a runner is that they ran out of extra-large. |
|||
Contraceptives prevent nasty side effects from one-night stands. Like children. (It's not that children love Rodney, it's that they know a Dad when they see one. And Rodney has sired so many children in so many places-- "Improving the gene pool! Did you see how pitiful their level of technology was? Abysmal!"--that he just oozes "Dad".) |
Cowboy. Just because you don't know what it means doesn't mean you can't be one when you grow up. |
|||
Cults. This is what happens to kids who watch too many Kevin Costner movies. (Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves is one of my favourite movies ever. It's terrible, and so, so good.) |
Cybersex. Geeks do it over telnet. [Telnet is what I used to connect to the internet back in the very early 90's. I think John and Rodney could totally make dial-up sex noises. And go slow. Really slow.] |
|||
Diagrams. Sometimes, you just have to draw him a picture. John was a math genius. He didn't need to know how to read. |
Humour. DOS system jokes are only audience-appropriate when your audience knows what DOS is. Sorry, Rodney. |
|||
Drama Queens. Ruining your life since high school, one painful moment at a time. |
Doctor McKay is so right, and you are so, so wrong. |
