Sith Romney says...

Because of my username and obvious resulting appreciation for Star Wars humor, I'm naturally obligated to respond. It's funny regardless, but is that a Spaceballs reference?

It's a Star Wars reference. When Luke (disguised as a stormtrooper) first meets Leia she says "Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper?" I believe Spaceballs was referencing that scene when there was one short stormtrooper-type. I think that was the gag? Been a while since I've seen Spaceballs.

Edit: And you have to know about Rmoney's quote in Michigan about the trees being the right height to get the full joke.

Should have been more clear . . . I got the "too short for a Stormtrooper" ref and the callback to the insane remark about the trees. I thought weaving them both into one caption was brilliant! Just thought it might have been a triple entendre as I thought there was something in Spaceballs about Stormtrooper height as well. Like you, I haven't seen it in ages. I'm fully in favor of Dark Helmet or Sith Lord Rmoney as a new nickname.

Yeah, I thought most would get the "trees" reference but I added it to that reply just in case some sees this thread and goes "Huh?".

Don't you think "Sith Romney" has a nice ring to it?
