Emotionally Distant Husband Would Rather Watch ‘Stargate SG-1’ Than Have Honest Conversation About ‘Stargate SG-1’
BOSTON—Describing the behavior as an avoidance strategy used to ignore difficult subjects, local woman Sophia McKabe told reporters Thursday that her emotionally distant husband Doug seemed to prefer watching Stargate SG-1 to having an honest conversation about Stargate SG-1. “It’s like every time I try to ask Doug how he really feels about Colonel O’Neill and the rest of the SG-1 unit’s chances against the Goa’uld, he just turns away and puts on another episode,” said McKabe, who expressed dismay over her spouse’s seeming indifference toward engaging with thorny topics about the military science-fiction series, such as the origins of the Stargate device’s space-travel technology and who the mysterious beings known as the Ancients might be. “The other day I paused the show and asked him, ‘Doug, honey, do you think we’ll ever watch [spinoff series] Stargate Atlantis?’ and he just got this far-off look in his eyes. I get that this is tougher than just skipping to the next season, but sometimes I wonder if he even thinks my opinions about System Lord Apophis matter.” At press time, McKabe had reportedly sent her husband a sternly worded email asking if they might consider seeking counseling at forum.gateworld.net.
