Meme Thread... no politics

In reply to Hungary Bill (Forum Supporter) :

I'm not sure if that was just a flippant response to a tired meme that didn't even get the number of gaskets correct, but I'm going to remember that.

In reply to Pete. (l33t FS) :

I saw this in a group I'm in this summer. Someone made a crack about fragtastic Subaru motors, the guy gets pissed and says "they don't blow up if you take care of them" but his car had a replacement engine, so he was either wrong or admitting he didn't take care of the car.

Think about the end party scene. Everyone is chowing down on a feast cooked up by the Ewoks, and there is the one Ewok scene playing a set of stormtrooper helmets like a freaking glockenspiel. Combine that with the Ewoks being quite willing and familiar with stringing our heroes up to cook them over a fire, and that means everyone at the end was likely eating stormtrooper brisket.

But, since the storm troopers are clones, is it cannibalism?

Sure, they're still made of human meat. It's just got a certain consistency of flavor. Makes them easier to cook, too.

Think I'm going to need an education because I believe I understood the movie series wrong now. I swore that the Stormtrooper started out as the Clones in the Clone Wars and became the Stormtroopers after order 66

Warning: nerd content ahead!

The difference between Clone Troopers and Stormtroopers is addressed in other series. Essentially, the latter are conscripts and volunteers.  A story trope used a couple of times was the animosity between Stormtroopers and some of the few remaining Clones serving in the Empirial forces.  But due to the accelerated aging, few Clones remained into the New Hope era. The lower quality of the recruits and training is also used as an excuse for the poor aim.

As far as I can tell, that depends on who directed the movie.

Thanks Ian! Phone glitched when I tried to respond but you put it more elegantly than I would have.

There are no actual books which are banned...

This meme has a picture of a politician, but it's not political in nature.  I'll remove it if it has crossed a line, it just made me laugh.

Edit: meme removed due to objection.

Maybe this instead?
