Remix: Gateworld Joe Flanigan Interview
As I was checking out the pictures from Joe Flanigan's Creation Chicago interview (link borked on purpose), I couldn't help but wonder what exactly they were talking about, so here's my interpretation. *g*

Gateworld: "Hey, Joe! Thanks for agreeing to sit down with me!"
Joe Flanigan: "Sure, no problem!"
GW: "So have you seen Stargate: Universe? It's a great show!"
JF: "Hahaha! Of course, I have! I'm a huge supporter of Stargate: Universe, seeing as how they cancelled my show to make room for it."
GW: "Yeah, it's really cool. Everyone at Gateworld loves it!"
JF: "Oh. You're serious."
GW: "Yeah, man. It's totally fucking awesome. It has lesbians! And have you seen that chick with the big rack? She's really hot."
JF: "…"
GW: "And if we're lucky, there'll be some hot girl-on-girl action. Should be pretty sweet. "
JF: "…"
GW: "Some internet feminazis got their panties in a bunch about an upcoming body swap episode where someone else has sex in the lesbian babe's body. They keep insisting it's 'rape' or something, but it's to save the ship! Plus, a pretty crippled girl gets to be normal for a little while. It's not like she'll ever have another chance to have sex, so she's gotta take advantage of it. "
JF: "…"
GW: "I know, hey? They're totally not getting it. Besides, the show's supposed to be dark and edgy, and you can't do dark and edgy without someone getting raped, right?"
JF: "…"
GW: "The casting call for the pretty crippled girl really pissed the feminazis off, too, but Joe Mallozzi explained that we weren't supposed to see that stuff anyway, and they wouldn't describe the character that way to people outside production. Like when you tell a joke about black people, you don't do it in front of a black person, you know? You gotta have some tact. "
JF: "!!!"
GW: "Anyway, maybe they'll ask you to guest star on it or something. That'd be awesome, and it's not like you're all that busy right now or anything. "
JF: *CENSORED*

- And, um, if you are a person who has a hard time distinguishing between someone saying offensive things and someone mocking people who say offensive things, you will really hate this post.
