Star Wars Revelations - May the Force Be With You!
n0alpha writes "For all you Star Wars fans out there, if you've been less than satisfied with the last two episodes of Star Wars, fear not. There is a new episode coming out soon -- but I'm not talking about Revenge of the Sith. On April 16th, 2005 the world will be blessed with a brand new episode, Star Wars Revelations. This is an independent film, completely put together by volunteers and organized by Panic Struck Productions, but don't let that fool you into thinking it is sub-par. Visit their website to view a trailer."

Hahaha, you're not funny.
Just because there's a referrence you can make, doesn't mean it's worth your time to type or our time to read. So here are some simple rules:
1) Make sure that the referrence you're thinking of applies in some way to the current situation.
2) Make sure said referrence was funny in the first place.
3) Check to make sure its insertion into the thread of conversation would actually be funny. (This is especially important if it wasn't funny in the first place.)
4) Finally, think for a moment. If you were someone else reading it, would it come off that you're quoting for the sake of quoting, or are legitimately funny?
If it fails 1,3, or 4, don't post it. If it fails 2, be sure that it's one funny motherfucking juxtaposition.
Hope I helped.
I don't have a dog.
Anyway, trite referrences annoy me, but that's beside the point. I was curious to see how I'd be modded. For example, this post got me 3 insightful mods, and I was expecting troll.
I don't take slashdot seriously anymore, so I use it as somewhat of a sandbox where I can try things out to produce reactions.
This could be considered trolling (and I think is by most people), but most trolls are interested in producing a specific effect while my intent is to observe the effect.
I dont think that using -- would be acceptable since Im sure this thread wont take any arguments.
And thats why Firecrackers and kittens don't mix.
Just shoot me off an e-mail next time you want one of your posts modded down. Ill be glad to help! :)
