Today, I had an in-depth conversation at work about how technically Luke Skywalker was never a Jedi Master. Highlight of my working day. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, while talking to my girlfriend, the subject of Darth Vader came up. That's when she asked me, "Aren't Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker the same person?" I don't know what's worse, the fact that she asked me that, or the fact that I got upset over her lack of Star Wars knowledge. FML
Today, I went to see Star Wars with my brother. The entire time he talked about how scientifically inaccurate and improbable the entire movie was. FML
Today, I got written up at work for making a customer feel bad. I made him feel bad by laughing uncontrollably at him when he asked if we sold real light sabers. FML
Today, I understand the finer points of the government in Star Wars better than I understand the U.S. government. FML
Today, I was watching Star Wars : Attack of the Clones, and Yoda was using the force to move a heavy object. While in the middle of my lounge room, I instinctively put my hand up to use the force to help him, in front of my father and sister. My sister will never let me live it down. FML
Today, we had a get together for work at a restaurant I've never heard of. After spending all week trying to make a good impression on my new boss and co-workers, I showed up in a pair of shorts and a Star Wars T-Shirt. Turns out it was one of the fanciest restaurants in town. FML
Today, I was giving my friend a crash course in Star Wars over coffee. As I was telling him about the primitive and savage Sand People, some attention-seeking tit came out of nowhere and called me racist. Apparently she thought I was talking about people from the Middle East. FML
Today, I had an epic, two-hour conversation with a brilliant, beautiful future leader of our industry. She's an intern. I'm just some loser horndog of a senior manager in another department. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I binged Star Wars. Now he keeps talking about how the Empire is superior to the Republic, digging up Reddit threads / YouTube videos / expressing his own political ideas to convince me of this. I just wanted to watch the movies. FML
Today, while playing Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, my phone rang, and I instinctively tried to pick it up with the Force. I kept trying until it stopped ringing. FML

Hard day at work I see. Luke does become a Jedi master, just not in the first 2 trilogies.

I agree good sir. That sounds like a fun time at work to me. I wish my employees would grace me with a conversation like that, instead of the "guess what my girlfriend did or did not do" variety.

The Expanded Universe isn't quite cannon. It's at least an arguable point. OP, that's not an FML. That's awesome, most people would love to have a workplace where they can talk about things they enjoy.

If that's what you call an FML moment, you've got a pretty good life.

Yeah he did. He became a Jedi once he defeated Vader.

There's a difference between 'being a Jedi' and 'being a Jedi MASTER'. By Jedi standards, he really wasn't much more than an apprentice.

23: I'm pretty sure (had there been more Jedi, that is) that he would've been held in high esteem and would certainly have been promoted beyond "apprentice." ridding the galaxy of the Dark Lord of the Sith, the head of the tyrannical Empire and bringing balance (more or less) to the Force was extraordinary! the only others to get even that close (Yoda and Windu) were great Masters themselves! O:

Who the hell's Luke Skywalker??

That better be sarcasm. If not, GTFO and go watch all 6 Star Wars movies.

I find sci-fi extremely boring and lame, can't expect everyone to like Star Wars

The high light was also finding someone that could relate to a topic that you're passionate about! I always feel like I'm talking to a brick wall with most of my coworkers. :P **Hello, is anybody out there?

Noting to be ashamed about, but to stop that guys debate dead in his tracks, Luke does become a Jedi master, but with no other surviving Jedi or masters, he's left to promote himself to the rank, also that guy shoulda kept in mind that Luke is responsible for rebuilding the entire Jedi Order :3 So nothing to be ashamed about with that as a highlight of the day
