Today, while discussing Big Foot, the topic of Chewbacca came up, which led to me looking up the “Star Wars Holiday Special.” Somehow the ill-received, quickly-churned-out-to-meet-insatiable-demand 1978 TV special had slipped past me for many years. I never actually saw it. But now, thanks to YouTube, I can see the best five minutes of the 2-hour special.

I want my 5 minutes back.

Today I spent a bit of time trolling around trying to find some sw33t sites to pimp our sketch routine, Manchild Drink Beer. Well, needless to say I ended up straying away from my original goal, and found these sites instead. Let’s have at it, shall we?

Tool of Satan is a site that was used by crazy Christians who believed that The Force from the Star Wars saga was a tool of the devil.  No, I’m serious, click the link for proof.  The video (below) shows the group members actively debating that the force is “made up, but jesus is real”.  Look, I’m (somewhat) Catholic, but we’re both on odd grounds… one group believes that the son of God popped out of a virgin, magically made booze from water, died and became a zombie before he flew to heaven; the other one believes in the force.

The Best Page in the Universe is basically a ranting blog that has a few lulz tucked away in it.  The guy probably has too much time on his hands, but what does that say about the dude who actively sought him out, then wrote his own blog about it?  Check this entry in particular.

Last, we have Explosm, which is home to my favorite web comic, Cyanide and Happiness.  It’s always good to stop by and see what the fella’s over there are producing.  Well, that’s my 2 cents, enjoi.

DJ’s are so cute when they’re just messin’ around… From Thudrumble’s Youtube:

I happened to catch Q goofin’ around with his new huge Star Wars figure. He just got this rare General Grievous sculpture in the mail today. So he’s actin’ like a happy fool on the fader! He was so thrilled this collector’s piece got to his house after paying for it online and waiting forever, so he pulled out the trusty “Superseal” record and did a ‘happy’ drum skratch to welcome the General… what a dork, especially right before he gets that text or whatever on his iphone =P!
The thing is 25″ high and is incredible! Only 2,500 were made and pretty much sold out everywhere! If you find the one with the cape, it’s even rarer! Like the QFO for Star Wars fans!

Seriously I want to be a logger now. Who knew John Deere engineers were so into Star Wars and all sorts of gangster ass future shit?

Check out these awesome pics French photographer Cedric Delsaux snapped of Star Wars characters in modern day surroundings. EPIC!
