ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY - APRIL 17thOn this day in history in 1973, George Lucas began writing Star Wars.
It was a simple story: Boy lives a boring life with Aunt and Uncle. Boy meets droid. Boy falls in love with droid. Pushes his buttons. Cleans his insides.
Droid tries to communicate his reservations about this level of contact, but can only manage some beeps.
The beeps get quicker.
Boy tinkers some more. Droid ejaculates a hologram of a pretty woman. Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope.
Droid is embarrassed.
This has never happened before.
It panics and escapes.
Boy chases droid. Whilst he's away "not" fixing the generators like he'd been asked to do, Boy's Aunt and Uncle get killed.
Boy captures droid.
Then Boy meets old man.
Boy is groomed by old man. Would you like to see my Lightsaber? Whoosh it around a bit? Yep, a bit more. Here, put my helmet on your head and swing your Lightsaber around.
Yep, just like that.
Trust in the Force, Luke. Feels good, doesn't it?
Now you're ready to know the truth. You kissed your sister, you sicko-pervert.
And if Boy liked it, he should've put a ring on it.
Boy finds out his father is an asthmatic psychopath. Boy kills father. The End.
