Why This Must Be Read: Part of the wonderful Five Things series that's still going strong, Minnow actually wrote this one at my request, so I'd probably be partial to it even if it wasn't so good.

While many of us are convinced that Teal'c often only pretends to misunderstand Tau'ri culture, there have surely been many, many times when he was truly at a loss to comprehend those wacky Earth people and their customs. Minnow's choices run from funny to poignant to moving, and every single one of them rings true.

While you're at it, check out the other "Five Things" snippets included in the same post, both above and below this one. They share the same range of emotions and are equally well worth reading!

That while it was acceptable for prime time television--and even more so on cable channels--to air commercials about feminine hygiene, impotence, and yeast infections, it was not (generally) appropriate to talk about them.

Also, perhaps Jack should not be his guide to appropriateness.

Is there an actual link to the fic?

Yes, there is... The newer LJ posting field has an irritating habit of erasing my links if I play around with the link breaks. You posted this in between my first erasing it and then fixing it. Sorry 'bout that.

Go and read, and enjoy. :)
