#atozchallenge 2017 | bitchfest | what sandra thinks

[Disclaimer: This is just for a laugh… a fictional-rant.]

I have no strong emotions toward Yoda either way. Please don’t come at me with reasons no one should bitch about Yoda… this post does not reflect my actual opinion. I just didn’t know what to write… this was my son’s suggestion. I swear I am not as much of a nerd as this post implies… I’m just surrounded by the obsessions of my husband and son. I also know lots of crazy detail about Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. Oh, wait, that probably makes me a nerd, too.

Is Yoda supposed to be a lovable little grandpa-type character? Is he supposed to look (and therefore seem) old and wise? I can accept the old and wise. I can even accept that he represents the power of The Force well because he can defeat bad dudes despite his small stature.

But he’s a little troll.

Of course there is try. Success or failure… but one must try to get there.

I am so sick of people imitating his manner of speech. Bite me, you should. [I know, I just did it. I know.] It’s gotten old. Like, really old. Yoda-age old.

[Ahh… see I’m not that much of a nerd… I don’t know how old he is… but I bet if I ask my son or husband, they’ll know the answer. Hold please… … I knew it. The boy says, “He was about 900 when he died.”]

He’s a fucking Jedi Master… he can move shit with his mind but he can’t put words in order? Yeah, I know… maybe that’s the way his kind speak. I don’t care. When the Jedi Masters gather, all the others can manage proper word order… but not him. Silly little muppet. His voice is creepy, too. I know this because when my husband imitates it, he sounds like a pervy old man. I have forbidden him from doing it ever again.

So, in short (pun intended), he’s a wrinkly little green troll… I just want to kick him across the room. Mace Windu should clearly have been in charge.

    Hahahaha! I read this to one of the twins, and he said, and I quote, “Ha! She says she’s not a Star Wars nerd, but she knows who Mace Windu is?!?”. 😃😃

    Oh I am surprised you took the chance on this one! When I first saw the title I thought it said “yoga” which I was all excited about – since I too curse it while I’m in the tail end of a 0:45-1:30 hold in downward dog.

    But I totally agree with you on this. The speech is annoying and he doesn’t really offer much advice does he? Although, when trying to annoy someone who is the BIGGEST star wars fan, calling him the “little green alien dude with big ears” does a great job of making them furious 😉

    I’m more of a Start TREK nerd than a Star Wars nerd. So I have no strong opinions on Yoda. But now I’m curious… was he always a little troll or is that because he’s so aged? Could you ask your son for me? Lol!!!
