In my Year 7 class today we were working through a text exploring jargon when one of the girls shouted, 'It's Anakin!' Suddenly, they all dropped to the floor or slumped over their desks. Being one of those (unfortunately rare) teachers who thought this was pretty cool - seriously, it was well-choreographed - I laughed and said something to the effect of what the fuck was that about? Without the expletive, of course. They all started laughing and one of them finally said that they were reenacting the scene when Anakin kills all the Padawans because - and this was the kicker - they thought I'd appreciate it. Which begs a few questions ...

I’ll give this a shot at the bank. Back in five.
Emailed, it was.
It was not the receipt he was looking for.
Dude, I'm not the droid you're looking for.
Ancient, not this one. This one is pay as you go. Probably takes credit cards. Crypto?
That's a pretty cool story. The best conversations (for reporting purposes) are the short and slightly enigmatic ones 😁
hahahaha this really got me!
Something is strong with you.

Fine writer and reader of Substack—we are starting a movement to get a poetry section added to the platform. Can I ask, are you with us?
