Topic: Quote of the Day from Wookieepedia

Well, I was going to wookieepedia to look up something and noticed that the quote of the day relates to Boba Fett. Here it is:

"37.82 Boba Fett is actually a green, scaly humanoid about 25 centimeters tall. He controls his armor via a complicated system of levers, pulleys, and bits of string. DataPage 83400
37.91 Retraction: The editors would like to apologize to Mr. Fett for the above item, and ask that he please quit shooting our reporters. DataPage 83401"

I so do not understand the quote. Perhaps its a blonde moment.

What day was that?  Trying to find out what day...

Its like something from a holonet station i guess. They got a rumor that Fett was as described above, and went and published it. Fett apparently killed some reporters as revenge

I'm terribly confused!? :X    :/     Boba isn't a trandoshan! :P :( :(

yeah...cause, you know...trandoshans are 25 centimeters tall......

Trandoshans aren't 25 centimeters! :P But boba is 1.83 meters. :)

lol, nice quote, I actually get it :D :D

How? I dont! :( ;)

OK. for all who don't get it: the Holo net (or the news) posted a story that Boba was a little green alien in armor and how he controlled his armor was by pulling levers and twisting knobs. As you can see Boba wasn't to happy about it and killed some reporters to make his point. The Holo net (news) the made a retraction apologizing  to "Mr. Fett".

Get it?

..................Yes.........I..........do. Lolz! Thanks, Alo for explaining it for me. :)

This was sarcasm, for those who didn't get that.

lol. wow.

i did. but those incredibly subtle things escape some people. a few i like on there are:

"This threshold is mine. I claim it for my own. Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass."
―Ganner Rhysode

just a cool one.

a fun one

    Waitress: "Anything else?"
    Yoda: "Yes. We would like our meal comped."
    Waitress: "Your meal will be comped."
    Mace Windu: "Stop that! What happened to only using the Force for knowledge and defense?"
    Yoda: "I was. Defending my wallet I was from the evil price hikes."
    ―Yoda, using the Force correctly, from a certain point of view[src]

a good old piece of Fett

    Darth Sidious: "You were at Galidraan...tell me, how did one mere man kill so many of your kind?"
    Dooku: "With his bare hands..."
    ―Darth Sidious and Count Dooku, speaking of Jango Fett

some good RC ones

    Scorch: "Did I miss anything important?"
    Boss: "No. Did you get the data?"
    Scorch: "Yeah, yeah, they searched me, but I – I hid the data pretty well."
    Boss: "Where, exactly?"
    Scorch: "Uh, you don't want to know."
    Boss: "Roger that."
    — Scorch and Boss, after rescuing Scorch

    Fi: "You can live without an arm, they can always bolt on a new one."
    Boss: "What about my head?"
    Fi: "Like I said, they can always replace nonessential parts."
    Boss: "I love this guy. He'll make such great target practice."
    ―RC-8015 ("Fi") and RC-1138 ("Boss") banter

RC-1140 (a.k.a. "Fixer")

    Fixer: "Blast! Get that Wookiee out of the fire area!"
    Scorch: "Okay, you tell him to retreat, Fixer."
    Fixer: "Uh...negative on that."
    — RC-1140 and RC-1262

    Fixer: "There's the core ship, sir!"
    Scorch: "Are you sure, Forty? I mean, maybe there's another around the corner."
    ―RC-1140 and RC-1262, upon seeing the sizable enemy vessel

RC-1207 (a.k.a. "Sev")

"38, contact Command and ask them when I get to kill something."
―Sev, a.k.a. RC-1207

    Scorch: "Man, this place gives me the creeps."
    Sev: "Ah, Scorch, nothing better than a jungle hunt. Hiding in the bush, putting a plasma bolt through a hostile's cranium... makes me feel alive."
    Scorch: "Okay, now 07's giving me the creeps."
    — RC-1262 ("Scorch") and RC-1207 ("Sev") on Kashyyyk

for those who go barefoot

"Shoes were invented by the Sith to keep our delicate toes in anguish and misery, I'm sure of it."
―Tahiri Veila, when Anakin commented that she's still barefoot

one from tycho

    Wedge: "I thought maybe you'd be able to do what I never could. Get Wes up to an emotional age of fourteen, maybe fifteen."
    Tycho: "No power in the universe could do that. Not Darth Vader and the dark side of the Force, not the nuclear devastation of an exploding sun."
    ―Wedge Antilles and Tycho Celchu

Love this one:

    "Yub, yub, Commander."
    ―Wes Janson to Wedge Antilles

a few from yoda

    "Mine! Mine! Mine! MINE!!!"
    ―Yoda fighting with R2-D2 over a glowlamp

    Yoda: "Each act, you see, is like a fossil, preserved in the Force, as – aiee! Stop! Stop! Eating this, I am!"
    Droid: "This bowl contains a substance my sensors cannot identify as food. Please wait here, and I will bring you one of today's specials."
    ―Yoda and Kitchen Droid

    Luke: "I don't want your help. I want my lamp back. I'm gonna need it to get out of this slimy mudhole."
    Yoda: "Mudhole? Slimy? My home this is!"
    ―Luke Skywalker and Yoda, meeting for the first time on Dagobah

some good ones from Han....

"That's not what the Empire would have done, Commander. What the Empire would have done was build a super-colossal Yuuzhan Vong-killing battle machine. They would have called it the Nova Colossus or the Galaxy Destructor or the Nostril of Palpatine or something equally grandiose. They would have spent billions of credits, employed thousands of contractors and subcontractors, and equipped it with the latest in death-dealing technology. And you know what would have happened? It wouldn't have worked. They'd forget to bolt down a metal plate over an access hatch leading to the main reactors, or some other mistake, and a hotshot enemy pilot would drop a bomb down there and blow the whole thing up. Now that's what the Empire would have done."
―Han Solo, to Vana Dorja

    Han: "Let's go back to the Errant Venture."
    Lando: "You're not asking my opinion?"
    Han: "Lando, should we go back to the galaxy's largest mobile gambling and shopping enterprise?"
    Lando: "What kind of stupid question is that?"
    ―Han Solo and Lando Calrissian

    Han Solo: "The New Republic doesn't know about this lane. Nobody does."
    Leia: "Nobody?"
    Han Solo: "Well, Lando knows. And Chewbacca, he knew—so did Roa. And, of course, Talon Karrde always knows."
    Leia: "So, basically you're saying that every smuggler or gambler who ever had a reason to slip into Reecee undetected knows this shortcut?"
    Han Solo: "Yeah. Like I said, nobody."
    — Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo

"I hate dirty tricks like that... particularly when I don't pull them first!"
―Han Solo

lol--sorry for the huge post. just got a kick out of a few of these.

    "Kiss my Wookiee!"
    ―Han Solo to Zsinj before destroying the command bridge of the Iron Fist

Wasn't the second one form Starwars Tales or Tag and Bink?

Yah the second one was from a Tales comic with Yoda and Mace in some diner.  It was hilarious.  And then Yoda was like the probability of that is a bantha coming through this window...

And then some "Bantha Bandits" who drive around a Bantha burst in through the window.

It was quite funny.

I remember that, it was great. In Tag and Bink (one of them) They had an Order 66 joke, can't remember the exact quote....

Nice quotes there, Werda Verd :P

I particularly liked the RC ones, alhough the Jango one was pretty neat.  Here are a few of the ones I have picked up, although the list is not nearly as expansive:

Scorch: Debris blocking our path here, Boss. We need to detonate the rocks to get through. And I'm not just saying that because I love to blow stuff up.
Sev: Yes you are.
-- Scorch to Sev in Repulic Commando

Sev: I think ...I see it. A Trade Federation Battleship.
Scorch: Not even you can see into hyperspace, Sev.
-- Same as above...

Scorch: I didn't know Trandoshans could fly
-- Scorch in Republic Commando

Atin: Looks like the tinnies have shown up to take over. But why shoot them?
Fi: Tinnies?
Atin: What did your squad call them?
Fi: Droids.
-- Fi to Atin, Targets, I believe it was.  Might've been Hard Contact

Etain: Is there a plan C?
Fi: The nice thing about the alphabet, ma'am, is that it gives you plenty of plans to choose from.
Niner: Shut up, Fi.
--- conversation between Fi, Etain, and Niner, from Hard Contact (I think)

Fi: Fancy a bit of action for a change, Captain? Give your Deece a day out?
Ordo: Don't worry, if your luck holds, I'll be right in front of you. If it doesn't, I'll be behind you.
-- Fi to Ordo, Hard Contact (Not completely sure, though...)

Sev: I'm only a simple trained killer, but something tells me never to eat in a restaurant with a bad pun over the door.
-- Sev, about o enter Qibbu's Hut, (run by Qibbu the Hutt in Triple Zero)

Darman: I want my HUD back. I want my enhanced view.
Fi: But you get to wear face camo instead. Makes you feel wild and dangerous.
Sev: I'm wild. And then I get dangerous. Shut up.
Fi: Copy that. [exits Sev's comlink channel] Miserable di'kut.
Scorch: Don't mind him. He'll be fine once he's killed something.
-- Quote from Triple Zero

All RC jokes for now, until my repertoire becomes more...widespread.

no, not targets, it was HC. and the one after, but the one with Ordo i'm not sure, but he wasn't in HC. nice ones though

Thanks guys for explaining the first one. Now I think its funny for two reasons, 1. that I missed it the first time, and it seems obvious now. 2. Because its actually funny. :P

I'm enjoying all these other quotes too. Its a shame I don't really have any.

theres a whole list off of wookiepedia--took me a while to go through them all, but it was worth it.

i got after reading it about 4 times :)

LOL that is funny :D

That was funny...i can so picture Boba going after the reporters after that was let out LOL

todays quote from wookiepedia

I am your god so bow down and worship me or i will uncreate the world!!!

nice quote.
:)

He should have killed ALL the reporters. That's ridiculous.
