Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

IMPORTANT

Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Special days!

Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.

Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

OG iPod is missing too. Clickwheel for the win.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

The last clickwheel model was released almost two decades ago in 2007 with the name iPod Classic,

God damn. My iPod I still use daily is pre-Obama?

We need to go back

I would have used an old ipod image or one of those small ones because all I was thinking was iPhone or phone... and I didn't understand what I was missing. But maybe just me that I am slow.

I kinda feel like Quadrinaro needs to have a bunch of orcas,

Need some nuggets in there.

I'm surprised this meme doesn't have "kubernete pods" given how linux-centered is lemmy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

My dark-sense-o-humor ass wanted to see if the swiss euthanasia pods were here

P.O.D. in there is hilarious. Brings me back. Sadly I no longer qualify as the youth of the nation. But I do feel so alive.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

This is so dumb, I love it!

Open the pod bay doors, HAL

Alas, HAL became the very thing he swore to destroy.

Idk I haven't read space book 3000

@Stamets

Needs a couple of kubernetes pods in there too

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

You forgot the most important pod of them all.

Escape pods.
