RE: #Stargate SG-1: canon vs. fanon vs. head canon

yeah that one

> Are there any other instances of details that have a canon version (if people remember), a fanon one (that has persisted through different fics) or something you just have in your head?
The Daniel/Vala & Cam/Vala fandoms perpetuated the trope of Cam calling Vala "princess". For some reason, we thought it had actually been said in canon. Turns out, nope, it was just a plausibly clever nickname from a widely-read fic that got copied amongst fanfic writers.

Oh, ya know one Stargate cliché I CANNOT STAND? "The good doctor..." OMG. Janet, Carolyn, and Carson get called that so many frelling times in fic IT MAKES ME CRINGE. I don't know why I hate it so much, but maybe because it seems to imply that other SGC doctors aren't good? It just sounds so damned condescending. I want to beat it with sharp pointy sticks.
