    Oh! Oh! Oh! I’m glad you dumbed them down because I know some:

    Minocks were chewing,

    The LIBYANS! 21.1 gigowatts!

    Princess Leia, of course, was their last hope

    I THINK they were worshipping Shiva or something like that, didn’t like that movie so much, too creepy

    Baby’s name was Francis (NOBODY puts Baby in a corner!)

    And that ends my streak of brillance, I know no others.
