    I’m pretty sure the Reno quote is real. (Edit: It’s not.) The O’Neill one I don’t remember, even though there’s both time travel and evil nanites in late SG1 seasons.

      Reno does ask for gum in one episode and she does have a line saying “I can fix that metaphor with duct tape too if you want” but the line from the image, as it’s written, isn’t in the show. I just finished a rewatch recently because I am sad.

        That tracks then. The SG1 line in similarly built from actual plot points, but I’m pretty sure it’s not a direct quote too.

          That would fit and would make sense why the line is so immediately believable. Even I had to take a hot second to think about it. Meme was well made. Not by me, I’m not that narcissistic yet
