      Nerd response is probably “If I pull it 66 times do I hear Palpatine?”

        The other day my Costco food court order was Order 66. My spouse didn’t get it until we got to the car so I had to hold in my jokes for however long it takes to make 3 hotdogs.

          Fuck that, own your freak! Next time call it out in your best Palpatine impression. Those who get weirded out weren’t worth caring about and you never know what other awesome folks you’ll see. Make your day and someone elses <3

            Honestly, my first time at that Costco I got complemented 3 times for my invader zim shirt. One of the employees showed me his Grr tattoo. I probably should have given the entire palp’s speech.

      At D&D last night we were playing a module with an orb on a pedestal that shocked you if you touched it with anything more than a single finger. The blue dragonborn touched it about 5 times, taking (half) lightning damage each time. Apparently he was a scientist this whole time, we just thought he was foolhardy.
