Just read Cell's posts aloud if you're having trouble understanding them.

I think someone infected him with the ee cummings virus.

Anakins's seduction and fall to the dark side might seem absurd to some, but I see parallels to modern Islamic terrorism (as opposed to the average, disgruntled mass-shooter who simply hates himself and everyone else). A lot of young Muslims are being indoctrinated and swayed into killing for a philosophy: "the West is the enemy and must be destroyed - men, women, children, everyone!" It's absurd and irrational to us, but apparently makes a lot of sense to them.

I think Star Wars attracts more S types. I have been noticing this of late. They are the ones who really seem to dig it, more than N types.

N types seem to prefer Star Trek and James Bond. Not sure why? :thinking:

You might be on to something. I'm likely an NF, possibly NT, and I prefer the new Star Trek and Bond movies to Star Wars. In reality, there is most likely no correlation. In fact, it seems like it would be the opposite with the Force and it's universal impact on everything.

^There either is or is not a correlation though. It cannot be both ways.

I like the Force and the eastern-inspired influences of the Jedi. Star Trek probably is a better universe to live in, though.

Yes. In SW, most people are probably nobodies. In ST, it seems like Federation culture values all people reaching their full potential. Even the Borg probably have it better than commoners in SW universe.

Slightly less chance of your planet getting blown up too.

One planet, bro... one planet!

Oh and Romulus too.

Two planets, bro...

Well...it's a stretch, but it could be argued that thousands of worlds were destroyed by the borg, although they were really just destroying/assimilating civilizations. Still, a fate in some ways worse than total annihilation.
