Top Ten Time #26
Like any government, the Old Republic had rules, ancient laws which formed the basis for a civil society. Equally wise and confounding, specific and obscure, nobody is quite sure where these decrees originated -- all we know for certain is that there are ten of them. Ten rules... ten laws... ten commandments.

And so, at the risk of some sorta heresy, here are:

The Top Ten Commandments of the Star Wars Galaxy

(drumroll please)

#10 --- Thou Shalt Not Use The Force In Vain.

#9 --- Thou Shalt Not Worship Protocol Droids, No Matter How Shiny.

#8 --- Remember The Death Star, And Keep It Holey.

#7 --- Thou Shalt Not Know Anger. Nor Hatred. Nor Love.

#6 --- Thou Shalt Not Kidnap... I'm Looking At You, Sand People!

#5 --- Honor Thy Mother And, If Applicable, Thy Father.

#4 --- Thou Shalt Not Shoot First.*

#3 --- Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighboring Planet's Senator, Nor Thy Sister, You Perveth.

#2 --- Thou Shalt Not Bear False Wicket.

And the #1 Star Wars Commandment is --- Thou Shalt Not Applaud As Liberty Dies.

Rather, turn the other cheek. So that it too may be kept Holey.


No, not those cheeks! One hole there is enough.

The most obvious one wasn't there:

"Thou shalt try not"

But I was thinking - those freaks back in reality (debatable) who want Jedi as a religion - is this the kind of thing they want?

I loved 9, 8, 6, 4, 3, and 2 the most!

And so, at the risk of some sorta heresy,
Heresy! Blasphemy! Burn him! Shun him! Or....
"Shoot him!"
"Cut out his tongue!"
"Shoot him, cut out his tongue, and shoot his tongue! And trim that scraggly beard of his. . . ."

Rather, turn the other cheek. So that it too may be kept Holey.

In this case, I'm willing to make an exception. :D

If so, can I be like a Moses or somethin'? I can totally grow my beard out.

I don't know why but I really like the term "False Wicket".

Feel free to use it on bumper stickers, business cards, etc.

Heresy! Blasphemy! Burn him! Shun him!

Ah, just like home.

Clearly these are Old (testament) Data Tapes commandments. The New Data Tapes commandments were given by the Chosen One himself:

"You shall love the Lord Vader with all thy heart, with all thy mind, with all thy soul."

and

"I give you a new commandment: love one another, as I have loved you. No, it's because I'm so in love with YOU."

Please make these additions to the KSIV.*
