I watched Boba Fett last night. That was a steaming pile of trash.

I don't know it was a steaming pile of trash...but it was a bit dull.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Isn't that Psellus' sister?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Same haircut but different fashion sense. Where is the second pic from?

The Breakfast Club? :huh:

You should maybe just re-read the posts. Nothing posted has implied that Sophie Thatcher was in The Breakfast Club.

I reached out to Psellus on Facebook when he moved to Vienna asking if he'd like to go for coffee some time, but he ignored me. :(

Depending on the time, dude was maybe on one of his withdrawal periods. He's been pretty up and down the past year.

Quote from: viper37 on December 31, 2021, 09:57:30 PMI find Thrawn to be borderline invincible in this series, so the effect of surprise is kinda gone whenever he shows up in a battle.  Not that the author would kill his character, but sometimes, just sometimes, I'd like him to face these "impossible"* odds and be forced to execute a retreat.

And people complain about Rey being a Mary Sue character. :P
meh.  It is the way it is.  Rambo goes on an entire Russian platoon on horseback with a M-16, gets on unscathed, it's as expected.  But a woman can't do those things, no, that just isn't possible.   :sleep:
:P
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

We should hold Star Wars to higher standards than Rambo. Hell, we should hold Rambo to higher standards.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Book of Boba ep 2. Still don't care much for the Dances with Tuskens parts (and the show does care much for them...). Regarding the crime lord timeline: [spoiler]Black Krrsantan[/spoiler]  :w00t:
