If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place

I just found out that, on top of all the other family problems I'm having, my grandfather has a brain tumor and will have to have brain surgery monday.  

 He made it thru the surgery, and the tumor was successfully removed, but upon removing it it was determined that the tumor was indeed cancerous and will undoubtedly grow back.

He's been given a 12% chance of survival, but more realistically he has 6-12 months to live.

:(

 I hope he lives at least 36 or 48 months just to have the doctors be perplexed as to how he's still alive. If not, he might as well make the most of it. You should also visit him to give your sympathies and to spend time together.

 I can't tell if this is another one of ChristophMer's mocking troll posts or not.

Lay off the drugs, son.

Who needs drugs when you have a slumbering Lovecraftian entity radiating eldritch energies in your backyard?

7. A Link To The Past

 Blasphemy!

 I didn't have a SNES as a kid. I went from NES to N64. By the time I had tried A Link To The Past, my mind was already blown away buy Ocarina.

That's probably why I didn't like A Link to the Past all that much when I played it, either. As a teenager, it's hard to be interested in this

after first being exposed to this

 How the hell did you get that giant skull thing to pop up? I've never gotten one THAT big... (insert somebody making a joke about me saying I've never gotten one that big out of context)

LOL. This isn't a screencap from a game I've personally played; I found it on Google Images.

Star Wars: The New Dawn (The First Episode in DuracellEnergizer's New PT Re-Write) *COMPLETE*
Time

INT. LARS HOMESTEAD/LIVING AREA - SUNSET

As Owen and Ben enter the living area of the Lars homestead, they find Anakin sitting on a sofa, checking his healing wound under the bacta patch.

ANAKIN: (reseals the patch) The girls are in the 'freshers getting cleaned up.

OBI-WAN: Then it can wait.

ANAKIN: (cocks an eyebrow) What can wait?

Neither Ben nor Owen say anything, merely taking seats within the room. After several minutes pass, Nellith and Beru both enter the room -- clean, refreshed, and radiant in fresh new clothes.

BERU: (beaming) Lord, it feels so good to be clean after all that time in the Wastes!

Rising to his feet, Owen glances at Anakin, Nellith, and Beru.

OWEN: Nik, Beru, Nellith ... Ben has something he has to say.

Crossing over to the sofa, Beru and Nellith both sit down beside Anakin.

NELLITH: What is it, Ben? What do you have to say?

As Owen retakes his seat, Obi-Wan stands up.

OBI-WAN: When I arrived here, I made a discovery -- an incredible discovery none of you save Owen and Anakin know about. (beat) Anakin, like me, is Force-sensitive. Like me, he has the power to perceive and harness the Force.

Hearing this, Nellith and Beru turn to regard the blond young man; while Nellith doesn't seem all that surprised by this news, Beru's eyes are virtually popping from their sockets with the revelation.

BERU: Force-sensitive!? When did this happen?!

ANAKIN: Ben told me it's something I was born with.

OWEN: (to Nellith) The Force --

NELLITH: (cuts him off with a raised hand) I know what the Force is, Owen. (turns to Ben) When did you reveal this to my son?

OBI-WAN: The night of your husband's funeral.

NELLITH: (turns to Anakin, irate) You've known all this time and you never told us?!

ANAKIN: (taken aback) Mom, what's wrong? What are you getting angry about?

Without answering, the Zeltron-human woman turns back to Obi-Wan, glowering at him with her intense fuchsia eyes.

NELLITH: Why didn't you say anything?

OBI-WAN: I regretted telling your son about his abilities. I was hoping any interest in the Force would go away if I left it alone.

NELLITH: (angry) You should have thought about that before you said anything to him in the first place!

OBI-WAN: I know. (beat) But I can't ignore your son's need anymore.

NELLITH: (grits her teeth) What need?

OBI-WAN: To realize his potential by becoming a Jedi. (beat) I personally can't teach him, but I know many others who --

Simmering with rage, Nellith bolts upright and quickly leaves the room before the Jedi knight can finish what he has to say.

BERU: Mom!

Jumping from the sofa, Beru hurries after his mother, leaving Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Owen alone in the room.

ANAKIN: (turns to Ben) I thought you didn't want me to become a Jedi.

OBI-WAN: (sits down) I opened your door to a much larger world -- I have to be the one who helps you take your first step through it.

INT. LARS HOMESTEAD/CORRIDOR OUTSIDE NELLITH'S ROOM - TWILIGHT

Entering the corridor, Anakin makes his way down to the closed door leading into Nellith's room. As he arrives, the door opens and Beru steps out. Closing the door, she makes eye contact with her half-brother.

ANAKIN: Can I talk to her?

BERU: Sure.

Without further words, Beru walks past Anakin on her way out of the corridor, leaving Nik free access to the closed door. Opening it, he steps inside to find Nellith sitting on the edge of her bed, her head bowed and her hands clasped together in her lap.

INT. LARS HOMESTEAD/NELLITH'S ROOM - TWILIGHT

ANAKIN: (closes the door) What was that all about with Ben, Mom? Why did you freak out at him like that? What's wrong?

NELLITH: (sighs) I was hoping this would never happen. (beat) I didn't want you to find out about your connection to the Force.

ANAKIN: (sits down beside Nellith) I don't understand. Before I met Obi-Wan, I didn't even know what the Force was. But you sound like you're an expert on the subject or something, like you knew this might happen one day.

NELLITH: I'm not an expert, but I know enough about it to know I don't like it. (beat) I don't want to you to go with Kenobi to become a Jedi.

ANAKIN: (frowns) Why, Mom, why? I've never asked you for anything before -- why deny me the opportunity to get off this dustball world and make something for myself?

NELLITH: Because of your father.

ANAKIN: I don't see what Mir has to do with any of this.

NELLITH: I'm not talking about Mir. (beat) I'm talking about Kane.

Hearing the name of his biological father, Anakin goes silent, taken aback by the weight of this revelation.

The truth about remakes...
Time

Warbler said:

The only problem with that is that the guy that remade Psycho might qualify as someone that loves and respects the original.

Hmm. Yes. Perhaps I should also add that the person who remakes a film shouldn't just love/respect it, but also have something significantly new to bring to the table; if you're just going to regurgitate a movie without putting a fresh spin on it, then what's the point?

Beru wants a good, long shower on a desert planet where their only source of water seems to be vaporators (which collect water vapour from the air)?

The showers they use on Tatooine are sonic showers.

Blue milk should either be just "milk" or "eopie milk" or whatever you want to call it. There is no evidence that they drink white milk, so it seems odd that they would call it what we call it.

Yes, you're right. I'll guess I was trying too hard to point out just what kind of milk she wanted to drink.

I'm also curious as to what kind of monotheistic religion that simply titles their deity "God" is native to Tatooine, or where it came from if it's from elsewhere.

In my personal canon, the humans and near-humans of the Known Regions of the galaxy all descend from humans who left Earth. Logically, they would have taken their Terranean beliefs and figures of speech with them when they left for the stars. Even in the era my story takes place -- thousands upon thousands of years after their ancestors left and have all but forgotten about Earth -- the various human cultures of the Known Regions still retain a number of "Earthisms".

And anyway, the belief in/mention of God within the SW Universe isn't without precedent. =P
