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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
What's worse?
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
The future looks bleak
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
Star Bores
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.

Better then an in-depth conversation between co-workers comparing their light sabers. Lol

Find your force, Luke, find your force...

That doesn't make any sense. Jedi Master is an official title. There was no Jedi Order in Luke Skywalker's time so technically speaking, Luke could have saved the Jedi from extinction (oh wait, he did!) and not get a title of mastery because there was no one to give it to him..

true, but post-Empire Luke is responsible for the reconstruction of the Jedi Order. I may be wrong, but being that he is technically the founder of the new order and that "Master" status was given to those who'd passed Trials of Knighthood (modifications withstanding) and showed great mastery of the Force, it's safe to say Luke eventually became a Jedi Master.

Star Wars conversations are worthwhile in any setting

Sounds like an enjoyable day to me!

Well obviously you didn't do your homework because Luke DOES become a Jedi Master...just not in the movies....

So we settled that question. But was it ethical to kill all those subcontractors working on the Death Star?
