Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world
==========
IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

You prefer your fantasy that happens in other worlds to be more grounded? It's amazing how boring this world view is.
I will allow authors to take me on a ride and I will fill in gaps where needed. Frankly I have no reason to believe a Sarlacc in this world does any of that, how did the people in the star wars universe figure that out? Maybe it reads more like a boogeyman legend about a creature the Hutt's use to execute people. I might add that our only in world evidence is boba fett getting out of one, not super scary. I'm just adding a bit of my own spice to the world because it's been left open to me to do so. That's fun!
Imagination and thinking are the same thing, you have to think to imagine What an unusually dull world you inhabit!
I don’t think you understand the term “internally consistent” if you automatically think it means dull. Are you only able to stay awake when there are contradictions and logic gaps for you to fill in and rationalize yourself? Maybe you should just write yourself instead of reading half baked trash.
Whether this is canon or just a legend in the world, it’s just as illogical either way. I think you meant for that to be some kind of magic trick that made my objection go away but it went nowhere.
Dude I'm not trying to convince you, I'm not arguing with you, I'm pointing out you seem boring. I don't care if a description of a monster in a world makes sense in compendium the poster got this description from.
I actually can't imagine being so obtuse that you're looking at the description of a monster for internal consistency to be a snob about it.
Yum-yucking sci-fi, gatekeeping snob. It sounds boring to be you. But at least other sci-fi snobs can jump on you like drowning rats.
Yeah you’re not convincing me, just insulting me repeatedly. Like clockwork, you bitch about how boring I sound. Well you sound like a grade A neckbeard idiot to me but clearly you’re wildly entertained by your own addled mind, so carry on dude.
Lmao, I'm the neckbeard! I'm not being a gatekeeping snob over what type of fiction people like. You came in here being condescending , I'm just calling you out for what you are.
Someone who desperately wants me to care about what you care about in fiction, calling what other people like slop, and being mad people are having fun. Like how is that not neckbeard snobbery?
I mean I'm not trying, to convince you of anything, nothing i or anyone says is gonna change your mind, at this point I just find your opinion boring and a bit sad!
I made this for you:
I love how 28 people agreed with me above, and 3 with you, yet you’ve drawn me off to the side yelling by myself at people who don’t care.
More “imagination work” I see LOL. Someone posted this on a discussion forum. I discussed it. If you are too fragile to handle this, you don’t belong here. That’s not gatekeeping, that’s just caring advice. Watch television instead (like your imaginary friends in the comic) where no one will ever challenge you with a complex thought. Or hell just draw more comics depicting people agreeing with you LMAO.
Please reply again because now your addled brain is officially entertaining us both.
