Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

IMPORTANT

Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Special days!

Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.

Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

So this is how Reddit dies.

With thunderous applause!

I can't say I'm gonna post anything, but I'm enjoying content. You guys are doing good work 👌

They will now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational fediverse!

honestly, i'm only mad cause someone took cybercunt3000, loved my reddit username.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

You could always just create an account on another instance. It's unlikely that username has been taken on every other instance.

Let me tell you the story about u/spez the douchenozzle.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not a story Reddit's admins will tell you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I thought that would be the story of Aaron the Schwartz. Or is that another story the Reddit admins won't tell you?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

But we can't go NSFW! It's not the Jedi way!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Me literally everyday when I log in and see most communities grow.

im alive! addiction problems disappearing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Let the hate for reddit run through you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's not the Jedi Way!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I know it's a joke, but killing Reddit would be too extreme, it's better to keep your "enemy" alive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

"It's only natural, he took away RiF and you wanted revenge. It's not the first time, Lemmy. Remember what you told me about u/spez, and your mother?"

The best way is to stop talking about it. Move on.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

And give up such juicy meme material?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

To be Jedi is to face the truth, and choose. Give off light, or darkness, Padawan. Be a candle, or the night.
