Old Blog Archive: The Star Wars Fandom Quiz

This blog entry was originally posted on my now defunct Star Wars.com blog. I am now archiving it for posterity in my new, improved, and free blog.

---------------------------------------------------

I have made a list like this before, I know. However, this one is different, in that I took the top Star Wars-y parts of my life, and made them into a list. Let's see how bad you are...

One point for each that applies to you.

1) Computer Sounds:
1a) When the computer starts up, it plays the SW Theme
1b) When there is an error, it says "I have a bad feeling about this."
1c) When you empty the trash/recycle bin, it says "What a piece of junk!"
1d) When you log out, it is either the credits theme, or "Sir, if you'll not be needing me, I'll close down for a while."
(Give yourself half credit for each if you would do it, but don't know how.)

2) When your little brother/sister/son/daughter acts up, you make them calm down by telling them that a Jedi wouldn't act like that.

3) Whenever someone asks you a question, you answer, in your best Ewan imitation, "Possibly..."

4) You write coded messages to your brother/sister/boyfriend/girlfriend, etc. in Aurebesh, by hand.
4a) 2 extra points if they can understand it, and they don't mind.

5) You boycott family movie night when they are watching a movie without even a Star Wars reference. (Toy Story 2? Oh yeah! Gone With the Wind? Eh, I'll pass.)

6) Your life's goal is to find a copy of the Star Wars Holiday Special, if only to say to your friends that you survived it.

7) You have built your own Star Wars website, that only you can visit, because it is stored on your computer - and you update it daily anyways.

8) When your parents refused to take you to see Episode III again, you convinced, with cookies your favorite Aunt to take you. (Cookies can be substituted by any form of bribery, and parents & aunt can be substiuted by any other people. Not like this ever happened to me...)

9) When you are stuck with slow internet, you only visit two sites: TheForce.net, and Starwars.com - or any other SW sites. (I mean, who needs to check their email, anyways?)

10) You interject Star Wars quotes into your daily speech.

11) Your only (or main) curse words are Blast, Sithspawn, Sith, and/or Kessel.

12) Because of your influence, your child or younger sibling wants to be Darth Vader when he/she grows up.
12a) Your child or younger sibling knows the names and mini biographies of at least the main characters form either the OT or the PT, or both.

13) Hmmm... unlucky number. No question - just give yourself a point.

14) You go to an out-of-town library because your local one has only 2 Star Wars books.

----------------------

Possible points: 20

Scoring:

20 Points: The circle is now complete.
15-19 Points: Padawan - The Force is strong in you... but you are not a Jedi yet
9-15 Points: Eh, not so bad. Much to learn, you still have.
2-8 Points: Ewok - You have failed me for the last time.
1 point: Gungan - Dude, you only got number 13? What in Kessel are you doing on this site?! You don't even deserve a Star Wars quote.
