I find the over the top Asian accents to be funny. I think of the possible facial expressions of anyone who was Asian watching TPM on opening day.

not at all.

Just another thing Lucas messed up, though a bit more cringe worthy.

We’ve never actually met each other, but I consider him like a friend (but not close, since he does live in Japan 😄 ). He’s a very active follower on my deviantart page, always one of the first to share his opinions on my works as well as other OT topics like videogames in general. I don’t think he’ll get it wrong, it’s just a question about SW after all, but I guess you never know, so I’ll be careful.

I’m sure it’s totally fine. It’s more of the frequency of such questions than the questions themselves (in my opinion, at least). S’all good.

I suspect you can come up with a less antagonistic signature.

I finally decided to tell my kids about it. They cried themselves to sleep. Luckily I hate them so it didn’t bother me.
