I'm not really into the whole museum thing but you two made it fun!!

Glad you and Ms. Ultramaroon made it out. It really is a long drive and commitment, especially that early in the AM!
@humfrz, I spotted your car!!

She mentioned a few times how much she enjoyed seeing you and your brother. Say "hi" from us again, please.

I think we'll just have to drive down to Pullyapantsup and grampanap ol' @humfrz for some lemonade and stories.

So I've been thinking. Dangerous I know.

So what did the Sith do that was so "bad" anyways? Seems to me that the only thing they ever did was fight the Jedi anyways. it's not like they were raping folks or stealing stuff. perhaps I'm missing something in the story but I just don't see what makes them necessarily the "bad guys" other than the label itself.

One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist. I think that is kind of an implied theme in Star Wars though anyway.

The losers of any war/battle/fight automatically become the "bad" guys. Although I am not sure how they lost since the Jedi's screw everything up on a regular basis.

I can't even read the crap they spew in the name of journalism anymore so to be able to read it and actually comment does deserve an award.

Exactly, although their methods are a little different. The Jedi want to run things more through free will and consensus, and if you don't agree with them, its a problem. The Sith think they know what everyone needs and should just listen to them, if they know what's good for them.

It's similar to the Assassins vs the Templars in Assassin's Creed.

The Sith basically lose due to bad Engineering from what I can tell.

This was in a thing I read once and I laughed so hard I had tears.

I'm slowly losing my sanity...

I'm done trying to get my boss to see the way he handles inventory is fucking awful. I tell him it can be done one of two ways.

First: group every piece of equipment that's the same together on a skid.

Second: group all of one crew's equipment on a skid when it gets returned.

That would be way fucking better than reorganizing everything 3 or 4 times during the off season. The other thing that needs to happen is the crew leads need to be held responsible for their shit, and they need to have a hand in inventory and sorting. It's way too big of a job for one guy to be doing.

Ah well, maybe next year it'll happen.
