warning: my layperson's description of replicators is REALLY BAD

meletor_et_al: also, because [my family are] GEEKS, we're now having the "if a replicator (from Star Trek) were to drop down in front of you right now, what would be the first thing you'd replicate?" conversation
__dtrain: replicate?
meletor_et_al: yes. a replicator replicates things. [commonly] food.
meletor_et_al: so you ask for, say, banana pancakes. and there's a sparkliness, and a plate of banana pancakes is there for you in the replicator
meletor_et_al: :D
__dtrain: ...does it work with people? cause um. I would replicate you and jared and a pair of handcuffs.
meletor_et_al: AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH <3

also? STANDOFF IS ON! but I already missed the start, so I'm just gonna watch it on FOX' website tomorrow. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (dsudis you bitch who totally got me hooked. I need to get back to work on that crossover fic).
