    I do it every day, just to check, as I’m not gonna be one of these idiots with the force for years without realizing it.

        You use incantations for changing lights “red light green light one, two, three”

      Remember when automatic doors were activated by a switch under a rubber mat?

        As a kid you had to jump on them to make them work

      You really have to! Spider-Man wasn’t born Spider-Man, he became Spider-Man one day. You can’t know what/when will trigger your ability to use the force. So constant testing is required.

      Small tangent, that’s the excuse I also use every time I’m drinking something and it goes down the wrong tube “Nope, still not Aquaman”.

    At least once? Almost any time something is just out of reach, I give it a go before moving. It’s just plain fun.

    At least once? I try all the time, it takes training, what if it just starts working and I just don’t try?

      Yeah but I’d expect more stories of telekinesis if it ever worked, so I only try sometimes. Once did the Jedi mind trick hand wave for fun while high, got a laugh but don’t think they were swayed to whatever I suggested. Though was mostly hoping for a laugh at the time so got some success.

        Maybe that’s our problem, no one’s done it before so there’s still a small part of us that doesn’t think it’s possible. The solution is simple, start wearing robes and train every day (👁 ͜ʖ👁) like it was literally one of Yoda’s first lessons to Luke that he fails because he doesn’t believe… Brb gonna try to lift my car out of that tar pit again, and this time I’m gonna believe so hard

    Hell, that’s the least I’ve done.

    When I was a kid, me and my friend were obsessed with the movie Tron. Like the makers of that movie, we had no concept of how computers actually work. But we wanted to be inside one! So one night we typed “START: TRON >> ENTER GAME GRID” on the command line of his dad’s PC and the laid our sleeping bags around the PC and went to sleep; hoping we’d wake up inside the computer all dressed in blue…

    Of course. I test myself for spontaneously-developed superpowers all the time, just in case.

    I just hope if it’s the human torch thing that eventually works, that I’m also fireproof…

      Sure, the force is kinetic, but that’s just details.

    I can actually send an object in one direction and have it magically returned by itself and without preparation. Though it only works straight up and back down 😌

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

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.
