In my long search to entertain America (mostly the 7 readers here, Hi mom) I have devised a first date ritual that may not only impress the ladies but bewilder and confuse them at the same time. I don’t know why I think that ladies want to be bewildered but a true Star Wars chick cant help but be impressed by this(my Monte Python idea went down in flames).
The rule is very simple, you can only respond to her by using lines from Star Wars(from the 80’s, the new ones are awful but use what you can).
Her- Thank you for taking me to a nice restaurant I’m a bit upset that you are late.
You- I can feel your anger it gives you focus, it makes you stronger!
Her- I fear that I don’t get your meaning but thank you for acknowledging that.
You- Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering.
Her- OK, but I’m not really angry.
You- Anger, fear, aggression the dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
Her- Ok then. This is a nice place hope its not too spendy for you.
You- If money is all you love, then that’s what you’ll receive.
Her- Again not what I was saying, I just was it was a nice place. Err hmm You look nice!
You- When 900 years you reach, look as good, you will not.
Her- So umm, what are your thoughts about our new president?
You- All who gain power are afraid to lose it, even the Jedi.
Her – I guess that’s true, so you like Star Wars I take it. Would you like to be a Jedi or something?
You- I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father.
Her- Now you’re just freaking me out, I have to go.
You- I have something here for you. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your uncle wouldn’t allow it.
Her- Please put your penis back in your pants, I am leaving
From there it usually devolves into a shouting match and some state authorities are called.
If all else fails tell her that you can make the kessel run in three parsecs, chicks dig that.
If you find the right girl this tactic is magic, magic I say.

OK so basically what you’re saying to the guys is just start in IMMEDIATELY with what you guys are going to end up pulling on us anyway in about a year ? I LIKE IT…
Im glad we have a compact
What is a compact? (To me it’s a mirror used to slap on more makeup or make sure you’re not smiling with yesterday’s spinach hanging out of your teeth) so other than the fact that you might be indicating to me that GUYS have these too? NEVER mind, i just looked it up – same as a contract? but compact…
I think that Princess Bride quotes would probably work better on me, but I’m special.
I love that movie, reason #23 that proves I might be gay.
I’ve tried a similar dating theory, only I used quotes from The Big Lebowski.
BTW, there’s nothing wrong (or gay) with like Princess Bride. That’s a great movie. Which makes me wonder, “Does anybody want a peanut?”
Any guy who would be able to quote the first three movies like that, I would marry immediately. My boyfriend and I met through the light saber i carry around, since you never know when you’ll run into sith.
“since you never know when you’ll run into sith”, I think that is in the Bible.
LOL this was funny. I’ve never watched any movies enough to quote from them (even though I own all of the 80’s Star Wars movies and even regularly play the RPG book game) the only movie I’ve watched enough to succesfully quote from is Mulan (sadly) My little sister was obsessed with that movie for like 2 months and insisted on watching it repeatedly. (half the time I couldn’t escape it cuz I was baby sitting.) I ended up being able to quote the movie line for line song for song and even alot of the sound affects beginning to end
So, for any boy that reads this that I may meet: if you quote Star Wars, Princess Bride OR Big Lebowski- youve won me over.
If you said any of those things to me I would marry you and we could live in an exact replica of Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru’s house on Tatooine with our droids. So Hot!
Whats with the past tense? Call me?
Alas, it was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…
my husband and i met through something similar, but Lord of the Rings instead of SW. Though we do love SW. And we constantly quote Lebowski at each other.
