Insert “dark side” joke here.

Once you go dark side, you never go back.

Edit: I realized my post could have been misunderstood out of context. The story had some darker moments. Leia's torture. Bail Organa killing an imperial officer.

So far Empire seems more funny? I was expecting it to be darker than Star Wars because the movie was darker in tone. I haven't gotten to the battle of Hoth yet. It started off with an entire convoy of rebel ships being destroyed. I said this does seem to be setting a tone. But the scene where Ham is interacting with the deck officer before going out to find Luke was funny. Then once he finds Luke they have a funny conversation.
Deck officer: Is your droid malfunctioning?
Han: No more than usual.
Deck: why is your hand over his vocal opening?
Han: He has a cough.

Luke: What's that smell?
Han: You. I had to put you inside the carcass of my Tauntaun to keep you warm.
Luke: I guess you can cancel all my social engagements for the evening.

Definitely more “buddy film” type quips in Empire.

When he said "He has a cough" I roared in laughter. It slayed me for some reason. You're right though.

I left out Han's line about Chewbacca being a quarter ton wookie on a rampage. A threat he made to the deck officer

The 21B medical droid sounded creepy AF. I think it was supposed to be a soothing bedside voice. I imagine that is how I sound to women. If it is, I get it, and I'm sorry.

I'm a fan of ventriloquists. There aren't very many women that do it. The few I've seen are pretty good at it.

Just had one of those Mondays.

Start: Upset old dog got stuck, and her resultant barking woke me up early; dishwasher died.

Middle: Dog still grumpy & getting herself stuck repeatedly; shopping for new dishwasher completed, but took HOURS.

End: Dog took forever to settle down for the evening; got to my prepwork for tomorrow LAAAAATE; realized I’m going to have to do a bunch of hand washing of dishes, utensils & pots before the new dishwasher arrives.

I wonder if Jack is building his snow golem army.

I just paid my insurance premium over the phone. For the most part, their phone AI is pretty clear and articulate, even as it recites sequences of individual numbers or letters. But when it gives you the payment confirmation code, its diction becomes less distinct. It almost sounds like it’s been drinking long enough to start slurring its speech.

It's rare these days but when automated systems gave a series of numbers like an account number it would say numbers that sounded different from each other and the rest of what was being said. Like you're piecing together numbers that were recorded at different times.
