hclagopus tells us more.
OP here. I did not try to pick her up - I am a 42 year old married father of three and even if I wanted a date I have enough knowledge of the world to know that hot twentysomething blondes prefer hot twentysomething hunks - but I did try to make her smile, and failed miserably. And my geek level is so low that I read paper papers and constantly need my twelve year old son to help with my Iphone. (Plus I`ve never seen the sequels) I realize the girl probably lacked humour more than Star Wars knowledge, but what the heck. My wife laughed her ass off when I told her, though, bless her.

Oh Well...i never watched any star wars myself too!
Your life is incomplete.

His and her lives are probably more fulfilled than anyone who would try to charm a beautiful girl with that joke.
I'm ashamed to say that I haven't watched it as well....
I haven't watched any of the movies yet either. I'm glad I'm not alone. But I would have gotten the reference... even if you haven't seen it, how on earth would you not know what a light saber is?
The Avengers was good?
81 - Yes, because Lucas Films did such a bang up job with episodes 1-3. Seriously though, if Disney can do WORSE than 1-3, they need a medal of some kind because that'd be a difficult task.
Does OP's joke remind u of Star Wars. If not u, me and #1 needs to be thumbed down, we are sinners.
either*
Not sure if that's the best way to pick up girls by making Star Wars jokes
You have not lived.
1: you don't admit that on an Internet forum dude!
You definitely lucked out before dating and potentially falling in love with a girl who is obviously the devil.
asking things never hurts
81, did you think Pulp Fiction sucked too? Disney owns Miramax also. I really don't see a problem with it except the fact that people keep saying they're bound to suck just because Disney's making it..

Show it anywayYea it looks he'll be Hands Solo tonight.
I don't know how that's her bad, maybe she just pretended to have never heard of it to rebuff the nerd waving a pretend light saber in her face?
That's not her bad. it's just like assuming everyone is on Facebook and twitter. These days.
Why did u label him as a nerd?
Bravo, 18. Bravo.
231 - I think he needs some aloe vera

Are you mentally challenged?

Show it anywayI was going to ask if he had any YOLO ones too.. .
Everybody knows Star Wars. You'd have to be living under a rock to not know about it.
He's a wookie at picking up the girls.
Of course it does. That way you can make infamous sexy comebacks like "I know" when your leading lady admits her love for you. They tend to swoon over that one.
Yeah, some girls love star wars..
For some of us Star Wars references work really well. =)
Should have tried a Jedi mind trick instead.
Do or do not, there is no try - Yoda :)
Personally I love Star Wars and if a guy made a reference about it to me, it would be a very good start. Although OP's line wasn't very good...
Reminds me more of the Wutang clan.
Not a dagobah that I don't hear a Star Wars reference! But then again I go to an engineering school...
It would work on me. Rawr! Take me to the dark side!
I'm 26 and a mom, and by most standards, I'm pretty hot. I say most, since some people with terrible taste may not find me attractive. Not only do I love Star Wars, I build Star Wars Lego sets in my spare time and have Star Wars brunches. You could probably get my number with a good light saber line
227 - and you're so totally(!!!!) modest as well:)
246: boo :) being fully mature is boring~
That is because he wants to put his lightsaber inside her.
I find her lack of culture disturbing.
Just making a reference ^^ DISCLAIMER: Jokes not to be taken seriously and should not be subjected to opinions.
Star Wars is still going strong after more than 30 years, now will have another trilogy, sells millions in merchandise every year, has countless spinoffs, cartoons, books, figures, inside jokes, references in every form of media, etc. Nearly everyone can at least recognize it and after 3 decades it still has a huge following. This makes a big mark on pop culture which in turn is one part of the "American culture".
They aren't culture ...lol at least not as far as I'm concerned
75- Wherein your lack thereof remains evident.
75 looks hardcore until you see his face. Looks like a chick lol.
Everyone, please. I'm expecting a mass thumb down, but before that. I love star wars, seen all of em. But, are you seriously going to say it's part of the "culture"? I understand liking something and feeling the need to defend it, but... Come on... It's 2012. Star Wars died out ages ago. Even when it was "the thing" back then (if that's something you would say) you don't go around making Star Wars references to pretty woman and expect positive feedback. It'd be good if you were in a sci-fi convention, but general public? No.
-134 Star Wars died out ages ago? That explains why they're still making cartoons, and a soon to be sequel trilogy.
134-Star Wars will never die out... It is sadly going through the normal life of a series was a great trilogy for the first 3 then it became middle aged and was still doing alright with its new 3 movies and now it is about to become a hospitalized senior citizen with Disney at the wheel. But I'm off topic it is a great series and will never die out making your argument invalid.
Who in all of the galaxies has an excuse to have not heard of Star Wars?? That's almost as bad as my sister asking who The Beatles were. :(
No, the Beatles are not the Who.
Ask her on a date and perhaps introduce her to Star Wars? The force is weak with this one by the way; of not knowing Star Wars
He wanted to invade, but she was not an easy Lei-a
She too young for you then.

Show it anywayHaving never heard of it, probably. It's not a deal breaker to not have seen Star Wars, though.
if she's never heard of star wars, she's too young for you. don't touch that cradle!!
amen amen
If her age is on the clock, she is too young for the ****...
