Rodney McKay

When I was watching Stargate Atlantis the other week, I realized that I was very much like the character Rodney McKay with the major exception that I know how to keep my mouth shut. The episode I was watching when I realized this was "Trio." McKay believes himself to be able to do anything and thinks very highly of himself. He also has a bit of trouble relating with other people.

McKay and Dr. Keller are quickly becoming my favorite characters on the show. As a matter of fact, one of my favorite quotes comes from a dialog between the two:

Keller: McKay! I've been trying to reach you.

McKay: Well, you know, trying to save the city and what not.

[several minutes later]

McKay: You're a genius.

Keller: Well, you know, trying to save a life and what not.
