Let's have a "What does stuff taste like in Star Wars" thread.

You mean keettle.

I don't give a damn about the Grammys or LL Cook J but that headline really made me sad.

I had no idea who she was so I googled her. And apparently she teaches in Princeton, or has done so. It's always funny to see how things sometimes work extremely differently in the US. Where I live an academic with a TV show would attract a lot of sneers from his or her colleagues and would probably be dismissed out…

Neither did I actually. It's hearsay in this case.

Transformers? If anything the prequels were extremely lazy. It's always a disappointment in space operas. I'm rereading a lot of Jack Vance these days and (while it's sometimes fairly racist as well) I'm always amazed at the degree of details and invention he puts into creating utterly alien and fascinating society.…

Letters to the editor were a good system.

My sister and I keep quoting at each other the awesome cemetery scene that plays in Rockwell's head.

The general consensus in the teachers lounge was that we should send them a bill.

They're so annoying. They started appearing about a year ago where I live. They've made subway rides even more unpleasant.

The Hayden Christensen force ghost is confirmed as a character in the next movies

The middle-school I work at has decorated its entire website with Star Wars stuff. The bell which signals the end of a period changes every week. This week it's the Star Wars theme.

I didn't think about that. And no, I don't want to write anything for free. I meant it more as a joke than anything.

It was weird to see Treasure Island pop up in the middle, and not even a "reimagined" version.

Blacklisted: a struggling young journalist questions his whole life when his last-ditch effort screenplay is rejected, and he ends up stranded on the moon raising his terminally ill CIA agent of a girlfriend's precocious child in a haunted house where nothing is what it seems…

Come on, dress it up with fancy titles: Tales of the imaginary child / Drinking in pop culture: adventures in alcohol consumption/For our consideration: can the Randomness of Superman II match that of Beavis and Butt-head? and so on.
