Legacy Saber hilts run ~$110.
The new blades— which are removable and color-sync to the crystal in a lightsaber’s hilt— are $50 for the full size IIRC.
The old commercially available sabers that had removable blades were around $150 (source: I own the Skywalker one).

So you’re paying ~$40-$50 for the customization and…

I doubt they disqualified the winner in order to save money. The article even sights a perfectly reasonable reason- Uniqlo wanted exclusive rights to the design.

However, I’m almost certain that the decision to simply withhold the Grand Prize, rather than awarding it to another contestant, is a cost-cutting move. That…

I think it’s specifically referring to the evil Terminator— which I’d bet will be called the Gemini Terminator—’s ability to split into two.

Live in NYC, while a number of places do have their own drivers, like every Chinese place, a hell of a lot of the small places don’t. Heck I’ve seen a couple places I order from drop their own online ordering system for services like Seamless.

If a place gets a lot of delivery traffic on their own, and therefore can…

This is actually right?

My personal opinion is that almost all guns should just be banned, period. The exception being slow-fire weapons, like bolt action [hunting] rifles and break action shotguns.

Because really those are all you need. Rifles and shotguns are all you need for hunting, and shotguns are really the best…

How could those kill the GND for you? Much as I am personally a proponent of UBI, that wasn’t in the GND. And the ‘cow farts’ thing wasn’t either, that was only mentioned as part of a joke uploaded online by one of AOC’s staff. So neither of those were/are a part of the GND legislation that was proposed.

The GND…

The problem is that people see Christianity as a “get out of hell free” card. All they have to do is praise Jesus and ask for forgiveness and it’s like all that sinning and hating never happened! Free ticket to ‘The Good Afterlife’ and no chance of eternal consequences suffering.

So there’s basically a built-in safety…

Thank you! The constant mis-labeling of Van Dykes as goatees was driving me insane.

For the unenlightened:
A goatee is just the chin beard, with no mustache. Pointed, round, full, thin, as long as it stands alone it’s a goatee.
A Van Dyke is goatee + mustache combo. And the traditional form is disconnected, with a…

Yeah my money is on maybe a handful of people actually doing this. Most just sharing because “wow that’s stupid” and/or faking it for “the lols”.

Though it’s kind of funny that for this generation the hoax news BS is always about attempting a Darwin Award. When I was a teen the crazy things the news claimed were…

I had to scroll way too far to find the correct take on this story. Safe bet that maybe a whole dozen people have actually taken part in this “social media challenge,” like all the others.

While I personally agree, I’m also aware that most of the world doesn’t have the historical baggage of “blackface” that the US does. So while I’d expect anyone with an agent or PR team to know better, I can understand some, say, Asian or Eastern European streamer doing this by accident.

Basically, blackface is bad, but…

It’d be terrible storytelling, but they could start Rise with Finn waking up from the nightmare of TLJ and I’d honestly be fine with it. TLJ had some good ideas and scenes, but it was horribly put together and a poorly placed deconstruction.

That said, I don’t think they’re going that extreme. Some things might go back…

Yeah that “they were nobody” is hard canon given by the most trustworthy source in the galaxy! No way could Kylo have been lying about Rey’s completely unseen parents in order to screw with her fragile sense of self that she’d clearly been struggling with!

The main Star Wars story is about the Skywalkers. Mainly…

I’ve seen this posted a sort of EU-had-all-that-clone-shit joke, but I actually kind of like that idea?

This exactly! It’s not just a different paint job, the cockpit is clearly more of the standard ball-shape of TIE Fighters and Interceptors than the Silencer’s weirdly angular version of Vader’s TIE Advanced from ANH.

This was my thought as well. The Silencer “wings” on a more standard TIE cockpit seems likely to be some sort of Special Forces or Command variant Interceptor.

When someone is so blatantly racist that they’re yelling “that white nationalist isn’t white enough to be a white nationalist!” Yet somehow don’t realize they’re outing their own prejudices.

Also I guess Hitler couldn’t possibly have actually believed in all that “aryan” supremacy stuff, since he didn’t fit his own…

Yes! Those are actually great for light lunches or a midday snack. Never really clicked with me that they’re basically grown-up Lunchables until I saw this comment thread.

No he’s not. Steve is in his new Endgame uniform, both here and in the scenes in the battle-torn ‘vs Thanos’ scenes. The new uniform is most easily identifiable by the presence of the classic-comics-esque scale mail pattern. Which can also be seen in the posters and recently revealed Endgame SH Figuarts figure.
