Chewbacca’s roar. This is one talent I’ve always wanted, along with the ability to rip off the arms of a droid if they beat me in chess, but that’s another talent for another time. This sexy instructional video features an adorable geek chick unveiling the secrets of the Chewie roar. You’ll need to have some sort of control over your oral muscles, something which I unfortunately don’t seem to have and it would help to share the genes of a tiger, badger or bear.

I’m pretty sure the key to mastering the roar is practice, even if you feel sort of silly gurgling all by yourself. The only problem I see possibly facing is explaining away the guttural noises if someone walks in on you practicing.

Wear them as a necklace, wear them on a charm bracelet, shove them in you anus. It’s all in good fun! Right, random guy I met at the gym who promised to “clean my pipes,” whatever that means?! Stop looking at me!

Nobody disrupts the sterile sanctity of the Death Star and gets away with it. Nobody but Darth Vader that is.

How much more awesome would the Revolutionary War have been had it been fought with lightsabers? I think the answer is pretty clear.

While it might not have been Luke’s proudest moment, Han Solo saved Skywalker from certain death in the Empire Strikes Back by slicing open a freshly dead Tauntaun and shoving the unconscious Jedi into the depths of the animal’s guts. Still warm, the heat of the dead animal saved Luke from freezing to death in the harsh Hoth climate.

This Dead Tauntaun wedding cake briefly immortalized the iconic Tauntaun scene before it was quickly eaten, digested and shat out by wedding guests. Such is the circle of life.

Update: Thanks to our commenter for pointing out the original source of these photos. “These shots were taken by mod4 photographic and the cake was made by Courtney at Cake Nouveau.”

Even evil overlords put their pants on one leg at a time. Just because he has an evil empire to run, doesn’t mean his responsibility of personal hygeine and everyday duties comes to an end. In fact, for someone who interacts with so many acolytes, its important to smell fresh.

Darth Vader, much like any universe-domineering dictator, still manages to brush his teeth and shower everyday, and now, we have proof of that very fact.

The laws of physics always hold up, even in a world such as Star Wars. Gravity still holds Mr. Skywalker on the ground and Mass Times Acceleration still equals force. But does it equal The Force? That is the question.

Was Yoda really nothing more than a physics professor? Is Darth Vader simply an allegorical symbol of the possible destruction of nuclear power?

Boba Fett is my personal rum of choice and probably my favorite alcoholic beverage. But nothing can beat a tall Obiweiser on a hot Tatooine day.

Even with the Force at your back it’s hard to stay cool, calm and collected when you’re battling the dark side. Your hands WILL get sweaty and slippage might occur. The Lightsaber Glove holster saves you from embarrassing lightsaber fumbles.

This Lightsaber Glove Holster advertisement is prnted on a t-shirt, so it definitly exists somewhere. T-shirts never lie. Ever. And as you can see, it’s Yoda and Obi Won approved.

If my school bus looked like this I might have actually gone to school more than half of the time. Or at least would have ridden the bus to the school before running off to do my own thing. Hey man, I had important things to do. Don’t judge.
