Darth Vader FTW! 

Han Shot First! This was an easy win really. 

Please. Like this is even a competition. 

BTW, I’m calling a Solo vs Chewy and Vader vs Boba in the final four and a Solo vs Vader final* (read the brackets wrong), I think it’ll be a Boba vs Vader final. 

UPDATE: Star Wars changed the brackets to guarantee that the light side meets the dark side in the finals. So I’m back to a Solo vs Vader final 

Well played White House. 

This Isn’t the Petition Response You’re Looking For

The Administration shares your desire for job creation and a strong national defense, but a Death Star isn’t on the horizon. Here are a few reasons:

- The construction of the Death Star has been estimated to cost more than $850,000,000,000,000,000. We’re working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it.
- The Administration does not support blowing up planets.
- Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship?

However, look carefully (here’s how) and you’ll notice something already floating in the sky — that’s no Moon, it’s a Space Station! Yes, we already have a giant, football field-sized International Space Station in orbit around the Earth that’s helping us learn how humans can live and thrive in space for long durations. The Space Station has six astronauts — American, Russian, and Canadian — living in it right now, conducting research, learning how to live and work in space over long periods of time, routinely welcoming visiting spacecraft and repairing onboard garbage mashers, etc. We’ve also got two robot science labs — one wielding a laser — roving around Mars, looking at whether life ever existed on the Red Planet.

This is our Christmas card this year. We took the picture ourselves. It’s awesome. 

The R2-Dalek. Awesome.
