Looking for a fic I half remember. Before going through the Gate, John and Rodney went through a Pinky and the Brain style routine: "What are we doing today, Pinky?" We're going to save the world, Brain".
And I think at some point John said "McKay, ix-nay on the" something, when they were near some hostile aliens. And it's said that "Mommy and Daddy are fighting" meaning Rodney and John, and that the Marines are consequently off their game a bit.
ETA: the Pinky and the Brain part was from 'You've got to be kidding, right?' part one of The Paradox of Complexity on Ao3. Found by terrycene.
