Can I have Maul for December?
Everyone always overlooks Darth Maul....
He was reincarnated you know, and fought vader, almost beat him but Vader stabbed through his computer chest almost defeated and killed him.

You know why everyone overlooks him?  Because he had such potential to be a kickass character and instead was a mute chump.  People gripe about JarJar, but he has a more important place in the Star Wars story than Darth fucking Maul. 

FUCKING JAR JAR BINKS BECOMING FUCKING SENATOR OF NABOO AFTER AMIDALA'S DEATH FUCKING IMPERIAL SYMPATHIZING SUPER-REWARDED ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

GIVE POWER TO THE CHANCELLOR, HE SAID...
BE GOOD FOR THE REPUBLIC, HE SAID....

er.

See?  Heeza big deal in the Star Wars story.

NO WAI

NO WAI

I DIDN'T KNOW YUO WERE INTO STAR WARS

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING

[Sister_Gothique]

Kinda the same deal with Boba Fett too.  He only had a couple of lines too iirc. 

Somehow that made Boba Fett all the cooler,though..His lack of lines made him mysterious and neat..It didn't quite work the same way for Maul.

[Suu]

For us folks who read the books, he's actually still alive.


...Fucking Karen Traviss.

er.

We live our lives as though the prequel movies do not exist, around here.  None of that 'Special Edition' crap either - I have shown my kid only the original theatrical releases of the first 3 Star Wars movies.

We're all happier that way.

Guy Fawkes
by Payne, for the Discordians in History project, editing by Cram



Fawkes was born on 13 April 1570 in Stonegate, York, England. He first logged onto the internet on 16 April, 1586. He wrote several worthy posts and disappeared for some time, leaving some to ponder whether he had been jailed.

Fawkes' father Edward was descended from the Fawkes family of Farnley and he was either an In Real Life troll or a regular spag in the ecclesiastic courts, later becoming an advocate of the oppressive forum administration regime.

Fawkes was originally raised as a Sub-Genius, but in those days, you had to continue paying fees, which he could not maintain.



In 1592 Fawkes sold the Cadillac he had inherited from his father. In 1593, he enlisted in His Imperial Majesty's Elite Orbital Bombing Squadron (internet division). He served for many years as a soldier, gaining considerable expertise with expletives.

While serving in the Iron Troll Brigade, he adopted the name Guido, the Spanish form of Guy. He denied that this was a spaggy name.


("Guido's" Sig, totally not a spag.)

By 1602 he was still a total n00bler. There is some evidence that Fawkes was in considerable poverty around this time.

It's unsure how he came into contact with Winter and Catesby, but it has been postulated that they discovered him attempting to blow up a Protestant Church, whilst themselves scouting the church out for the same purpose.

It is assumed that the trio then went to the pub, as is usual when internet personalities meet up in real life. Over a mammoth drinking session, it was decided that blowing up the King would be "totally fuckin' win!", and so the conspiracy began.

Fawkes, with his expertise in expletives, was to fill the cellers underneath the Kings throne with capslock vulgarity. Meanwhile Winter would set up the webcams that would broadcast the jake, and Catesby would work on publicising the event, using IRC chatrooms.

The plan almost came off, but one of the troll channel regulars, butt-hurt after a flame war with Catesby, which he lost, called the cops.

Later, during trial, Fawkes stated that he had plotted the jake, "Fore thee Lulz".

He was Hung, drawn, quartered and IP banz0rred on 31 January, 1606.

Discordians burn stuff in his honour all over the world, occasionally burning effigies of him, particularly in the U.K., as no one likes someone getting a big ego.

This is fucking win.

I had fun writing that. There are things I would do differently now, but I still like it.

[LMNO]

So, change it.
