Hello, I'm Singleton Uematsu, welcome to NPR. Prepare for a major release of applause for the architect behind a truly class-ic framework, a gem of a developer: David 'The Rails Alchemist' Heinemeier Hansson!
What do you mean "we were not talking about software programming patterns"?
You made me look it up. Uematsu isn't dead
Singleton is your favorite pattern? We can't be friends anymore

Jek Porkins (lol)
Edit: Answers: only the second one and the last one are from Star Wars. The rest are NPR
I don't know about the rest, but Jek Porkins died for the rebellion during the battle of Yavin, everyone who's seen at least the original film should know this.
Im not a major fan but none of those sound like Star Wars characters to me so imma guess: all NPR?
