If Luke Skywalker Had Facebook
Funny bit from the blog Armchair Commentary. Here’s a sample (click to see full-size). I’d say “spoiler alert” but if you haven’t seen Star Wars by now, either you never will or you are too young to be surfing the web without parental supervision.
Armchair Commentary: If Luke Skywalker Had Facebook….
DaddyTips Show and Tell for July 24, 2009
- Is Archie Andrews hung like a horse? Like, Minnesota Vikings tight end Visanthe Shiancoe size? You have to wonder what the artist was thinking when they drew this page. (Buzzfeed)
- More nerdy stuff from Buzzfeed: the cast of Star Wars, in a photo from a long time ago, in this galaxy. It’s Vader and Chewie without their costumes. In a suit and tie. Weird. (Buzzfeed)
- I can accept that I don’t understand fashion. (Shocking, I know.) But $895 for a baby carrier? What’s wrong with one of the bags you get from the supermarket? (Pursuitist)
Tauntaun Sleeping Bags
Tauntaun Sleeping Bags! Do they come in grown-up sizes? Please?
Apparently ThinkGeek played an April Fool’s gag and said these were real. They weren’t. But now they are. All is right with the world.
Hopefully the sleeping bags don’t smell like real tauntauns. Um, I mean, if tauntauns were real. You knew what I meant.

Lucas Sues Stormtrooper Creator
Terrible opening paragraph: It’s a storm in a Stormtrooper’s helmet. Lawyers for George Lucas’ Lucasfilm Ltd. and a British prop designer faced off in London’s High Court Tuesday over rights to the molded white Stormtrooper uniforms from the “Star Wars” films.
On the one hand, Lucas has enough money, right? But on the other hand you have to enforce your copyright/trademark/whatever everywhere or you risk losing it.
But can’t we all just get along?
