Mielr, I had no idea you were a girl! ...girl here as well...and that Cosmo thing made me laugh. So effin' dumb. I had to tell this girl at work there was no such thing as Star Trak, or at least I knew she MEANT Star TREK. My friend at work was changing shirts in the hallway, and I noticed he had a Rebel Alliance tattoo, and told him so. His jaw just about hit the floor when I named the symbol without hesitation. He was like, "I never knew a girl who knew what that was!"
Well hey, I think that makes....two of us? LOL! I think there might be a few other females lurking around here.

Yeah, girls who wouldn't know that annoy me. Without trying to sound sexist, it seems that so many of them just seem so oblivious to everything except what directly concerns them. Of course, I guess I could say that about most of my generation. So I'm glad I know so many girls who aren't like that.

Most guys are amazed when they find out I'm a Star Wars fanatic. When the SEs came out in '97, I was working in my sister's pizza place that she owned back then, which was just a few doors down from an AMC movie theater. (BTW- on ESB's opening day, the line from the movie theater stretched all the way to the front of our restaurant, and we went outside and took orders for slices from the people who were waiting on line!) One of our 'regulars' came in, and of course all the talk was about SW back then, with ESB playing next door. He thought he'd test my SW trivia knowlege, and asked me what language Jabba spoke. He seemed completely shocked when I said "Huttese".
