Okay, so this weekend is out 12 year anniversary.
(Married 9.5 but together 12...)

And we decided to get each other something!
So I got home to find this MASSIVE box in the living room and a big grin on my husband's face. When I opened it up I almost wet my pants - he'd got me a Millennium Falcon with Han and Chewie! We spent an industrious few hours putting it together and playing with all the sounds and lights...
When it came to my present he almost fell over laughing, though - I'd got him a light-saber.

So - share with us your geekiest moments, people!
You know you're a SW Geek when...

Hahah thats great!

One time I bought my girlfriend a sexy womans stormtrooper outfit (as you do) but she got me drunk and got me into it instead!

I'll try and find the pictures she took.

Purcell

She ALWAYS brings it up when we go out.
"Oh guys I've got something to show you." she says grinning as she reaches into her bag.

She LOVES torturing me lol.

You know you're a Star Wars Geek, when you're looking for every opportunity to use a Darth Vader Quote... ((Or any other SW quote really))

"I have a bad feeling about this!"

"As you wish, Master..." **Insert deep breathing**

"Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope."

"Luke! I am your father!" (That's my favorite) ...

So many quotes so little time :)

I like to quote Star Wars and I like to say, "Impressive...Most Impressive" by Darth Vader about Luke in SW V:ESB.

Xanamiar

Lol... nope... But every single time I meet a man named Luke.. it's the first thing that pops into my head....

"Luke! I am your Father!" ... it's just too funny...

Asok

If a guy named Luke ever introduces you to his father... "No Luke, I am your father."

I've tried to talk my wife into a Princess Leia slave custome for some after lights out entertainment, but she just laughed and said "I don't think so!"

My geekiest moment is either a) trying to find a mythosaur skull design I like for my tattoo or b) wondering if there's any way I can talk my husband into being OK with me spending $400 on eBay for the ginormous Lego Star Destroyer for our RP game.

Then there's C: Getting my seven month old niece to answer to her Mando'a nickname.

Asok

I bought and built the giant Lego Star Destroyer. It's totally worth it! (even if just for the butt-load of gray pieces - I use a lot of those)

First post, yay!

I have a tattoo on the inside of my left forearm. In Latin, it is "Sit Vis Vobiscum."
In English, it is "May the Force Be With You."

Dorks...

What's so great about star wars anyways...?

oh yeah...

EVERY FREaKING GOD D**N THING!

whoops did i say that out loud...? :P

I play star wars rpg by myself... Hows that measure on the lost in space Richter scale?

Asok

You play BY YOURSELF? I thought you were playing with your girlfriend and her brothers. What happened to that?

Boshuda

Mercy

Whoops, must have posted while the others were resolving...

We're just looking to re-start our campaign. I'm really looking forward to it!
The GM's wife is gonna roll up a character and play this time (rather than sitting in the corner pointing and laughing!) it's gonna kick ass!!

Drig

Not exactly roleplaying but I do role the dice against two different characters to see what happens or change up the scenerey. More of a what would happen thing... I dont sit there and say, "Okay what would drig like to do?" "I think he'd like to go buy a beer." "There all out." "damn...." nonsense...

While it may not be my "geekiest" moment, it's still something me and my friends laugh and smile about...

My friends and I play D6 Star Wars. It's what the group we joined started with and have stuck with since. While waiting in line for Episode II, we decided to pass the time by having an impromptu session outside the theater. And wouldnt you know, I brought the materials! (Laugh now, or pity. Your choice.) So while we're starting to get set up, a guy and his brother start asking questions about when we're doing. The older brother rolls a character and joins us. Not long after, we had an other addition. To make a long story short, one of our new fish decided to make a streetwise roll to find an arms dealer. He rolls the ever dooming "1" on the wild die. So I decide to screw with him a little. He turns a corner and walks us right into the Blue Oyster Bar (of Police Academy fame). The guy turned bright red and started laughing. This lasted for a bit before the bar fight broke out that we all knew was coming. This was the first instance of my best friend's genetically enhanced jawa using a table as a melee weapon.

An interesting side not is the other player we got to play took his character and told us he was shipping out to the navy in a couple weeks and mentioned trying to find the books and take the game with him. I have no clue if he did, but it was cool nonetheless.

Feel free to laugh at or pity me, but it was still a great bit and has entertained the group for a very long time now.

I was more proud today when I got waved at and honked at and screamed at in Mando'a on the freeway while stuck in traffic than I was when I got picked to work on a special project at the office. (Disclaimer: I have two wicked awesome metallic silver mythosaur skull decals on my otherwise boring white Chevy Malibu that looks like four billion others on the road today.)

Man, I love being a geek.
