It's Father's Day here as well and my son said his first "tata" (local papa equivalent I guess) a few minutes ago. Best gift I could get.
That's lovely! Congratulations!
Every sith got their badass name but Anakin got named Darth Father instead.
And it was by accident, too! “Vader” was used because of the English word “invader” because he invaded the rebel ship at the beginning of the first movie. At least that’s what I’ve heard.
I find the "invader" thing to be cool considering how other Sith have names are taken from evil concepts. Sidious = insidious (very fitting for Palpatine's character too). And the fact that Anakin did invade the Jedi temple with his clones.
Yup.
Darth Maul
Darth Tyranus
Darth Plagueis
Darth Bane
I always thought those were all too "on the nose" though.
Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

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:
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.
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
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!
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.
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).
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.
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
