Browing one of my favorite sites, I came upon this video of [Darth Vader taking on a trio of Japanese policemen](http://japansugoi.com/wordpress/darth-vader-takes-on-the-japanese-police/). I must say I was quite pleasantly surprised the first few times I watched it, but now I’m irritated. There are so many things wrong with the whole scenario. Grah! ---

I don’t think you can break a lightsaber over your knee like that. ---

[QUOTE=silenus] I don’t think you can break a lightsaber over your knee like that. [/QUOTE] You can’t? :eek: I was rootin’ around the other night up in the attic, over my garage and I found my old one from KinderJedi Academy. I fired it up, but accidentally dropped it. It sliced right through the floor joists and sheetrock on the way down, but it broke into a bazillion pieces when it hit the concrete floor. I forgot how fragile it was. This is why I don’t buy any crap from Naboo anymore. Tripler Yeah, Force my arse. ---

Pssst, **Tripler** , I got a great deal with Watto the other day, I can get you quality product for just a few measly credits… I find their lack of faith disturbing.
