“Storks find all those used condoms and tampons, and they take them back to their top secret cloning lab that’s made of garbage. Then they use their top secret cloning equipment, also made of garbage, to make thousands of babies. Babies are also garbage.”

Good old General Veers, the only imperial officer that didn’t screw up.

“the shield will be down in moments”

For the truly vane. Stop admiring yourselves, go outside and check the weather.

Actually they do, if they aren’t making money off of it. It’s called Fair Use.

As it turns out, these are the intermediate phase between the juvenile stage and the fully grown adults, making them teenage mutant ninja lantern sharks.

Better transfer rate maybe? Or less chance of signal loss? It would be just like my wifi to crap out on me while I’m hacking into the Borg collective to put them to sleep...
