Bwa.

Possibly all of you are reading iharthdarth already, the wee icon-sized Star Wars comic, but just in case you're not - today's comic and its postscript made me laugh out loud. 'Plik'! Aw.

This one didn't hit me quite the same way, but it's still funnier than Dilbert.

Post-Worldcon wrap up (part two!)

* flambeau tries to play the kazoo
Mary: heeeee
Mary: I still have mine, too!
Seah: oh, you freaks.
Seah: you go to Glasgow, you buy *kazoos*
flambeau: no
Mary: no no no
Mary: you GET THEM
Seah: uh HUH
flambeau: we got them at the play
Mary: to play the Darth Vader theme on!
flambeau: you haven't lived till you've heard
Mary: whenever he appears
* Margie DIES
flambeau: two thousand fans playing the kazoo
Margie: omg
Mary: Doo Doo Doo da dee Doo
Margie: that's GREAT
Mary: it was fantastic
Mary: especially when the FIRST Darth Vader came on
Mary: who was a guy in a bucket, basically
Mary: and everyone played the theme, loyally
Mary: while the narrator went No no no, he's crap! Stoppit!
Margie: okay, this? is the sort of stuff you have to write up.

It's all true. There was a play at Worldcon called 'Lucas Back In Anger' that managed to cram all six Star Wars movies into about two hours of insanity.

They did the first Star Wars trilogy (chronologically second, original, yadda yadda) in a condensed version that starred a Dalek as R2D2, a Cyberman as C3PO and Darth Vader as Luke Skywalker's mother. In fishnets.

Then they did the second trilogy as an Abba musical. My favorite was the SW version of 'Money, Money, Money' that contained the rhyme 'Obi-Wan Kenobi/In his robey'.

And I still have the kazoo.
