Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So is the President of Hell an elected position? Or does Satan appoint you?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Love that link, Tom!

Yeah. Some scary pictures related to the storms in central Wisconsin Sunday night. My brother just missed being in an area of tornados when he left for Chicago that night.

You all know children are our future, right? After watching this, I feel more confident about the future....

Little girl joins the Dark Side, is promptly kicked out of the Jedi Academy

Watch as one brave young Padawan publicly pledges her allegiance to Darth Vader, causing a befuddled Mace Windu to escort her off stage and send her to the "Sith Academy." I think we've just found the next Secret Apprentice!

While on a family trip to Disneyland, one little girl was asked to battle Darth Vader on stage — but she turned the tables, realizing the power of the Dark Side! From the Youtube page:

The Gallego family takes a trip to Disneyland and Sariah and Alex are chosen to join Jedi Academy!!!! Sariah decides to bow to Darth Vader and joins the Dark Side in front of everyone!!!!

Sariah Gallego, you're our new hero.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

SKIMMER!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

That's when she explained "I've been trying to improve your personality".

If I were on the jury I'd vote to acquit the defendant based on that statement alone.

In the comments of that io9 story, someone says "Now I want a TV show about a group of people at a theme park who play characters"--I think that actually sounds pretty funny! Except you probably wouldn't be able to license any cool characters (like Jedi!) they'd all be random fake princesses and stuff.

That could be funny. Mace Windu and Darth Maul could have a secret affair.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Gah. Someone tell me to work. I had a SQUIRREL moment and I haven't been able to find my way back since.

Don't make us get out the Cone of Shame.
