<uselessabstraction> So I was just having a conversation with
my fiance about Star Wars
<uselessabstraction> particulary, about the choice of
architecture
<uselessabstraction> The amount of people who die from falling
down bottomless pits is TO DAMN HIGH
<uselessabstraction> like, who designs architecture like this?
<uselessabstraction> catwalks with no guard rails whatsoever,
just zigging and zagging through enormous voids
<uselessabstraction> Giant holes to nowhere

12290;&#12539;&#12444;&#12444;&#8203;_ø< qu&#8203;ack!
<MerryPenguin> .bef
<gonzobot> MerryPenguin you befriended a duck in 3.166
seconds! You have made friends with 17 ducks in #trees.
<uselessabstraction> .bang
<uselessabstraction> bah
<MerryPenguin> It's by design
<MerryPenguin> It's a cleaner look, for a more elegant time
<uselessabstraction> like... who the fuck put this hole
here????  and why????
<MerryPenguin> exhaust
<uselessabstraction> Darth Maul falls down a hole
<uselessabstraction> Palpatine falls down a hole
<uselessabstraction> Solo falls down a hole
<uselessabstraction> everyone falls down a hole
<uselessabstraction> Star Wars universe needs OSHA
<MerryPenguin> Luke falls down a hole
<MerryPenguin> Boba Fett falls down a hole
<uselessabstraction> yes.  yes.
<uselessabstraction> I forgot about those!
<MerryPenguin> R2D2 falls down a hole in the Millenium Falcon
after he fixes the hyperdrive
<MerryPenguin> lol
<MerryPenguin> we're onto something here
<uselessabstraction> Obi Wan almost falls down a hole
<MerryPenguin> C-3PO falls off the barge into the sand. Pretty
close to falling down a hole.
<uselessabstraction> his lightsabre does though
* MerryPenguin thinks hard about what other Star Wars
Characters fall down holes
<uselessabstraction> what if the hole is symbolic
<uselessabstraction> the hole represents the dark side
<MerryPenguin> Nah, doesn't work. Luke chooses to fall down
the hole instead of joining Vader/The Dark Side
<uselessabstraction> fair point
