PSA: Please stop saying 'photon'

By Explosive Ewok, in X-Wing

I hate to be that guy.

But I'm going to be that guy.

In Star Wars, it's a proton torpedo.

In Star Trek, it's a photon torpedo.

The Outrider now has a card called the proton rocket. Not the photon rocket.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program...

Set your blasters to stun

Set your blasters to stun

She'll be Okay...

But it can still shoot with it's phasers, right?

Proton. Are you positive? =P

The Millennium Falcon can go .5 past warp speed, right?

Someone was going to post it, may as well be me...

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

Sum words you speeled 2 well:

where

sense

rhetoric

I'm wondering how long it took you to write all that just for laughs. Commendable.

Live long and be with the force.

The Millennium Falcon can g

o .5 past warp speed, right?

Just a hair under ludicrous speed

It's a copypasta

Soooo, he didn't think of that himself?

Disappoint!

Set your blasters to stun

She'll be Okay...

"There's one. Set for stun."

"She'll be alright."

I mean, as long as we have, apparently, free rain to be all technical and all.

The first one was easy. That Kenner Troop Transport BURNED it into my head.

It's a good thing my latest Star Wars Transport toy doesn't make any obnoxious, repitive noises.

Are you the same guy who did the Wookie PSA?

My grandmother does this all the time. Totally the kind of mistake shed make while playing Xwing.

Don't you mean Devil's Advocate and For All Intents and Purposes ?

This thread is the "Let's correct each other" thread right? Right!

Oh yeah...Ordnance.

That's the joke, yes. It's a copy pasta misusing as many sayings as possible.

My eye is twitching as I read this. I'm pretty sure I'm about to have an aneurysm.

No that wasn't me. I think it was WonderWAAAGH.
