Want to improve your eye sight? Then take a look at this!!

I first got my glasses in grade 7, it was awkward at first but then I got use to it. As years progressed I realized my eye sight was getting worse. Then I realized if one spent a lot of time working with a computer, reading or watching television one is most likely short-sighted. Meaning you are unable to see objects in a distance, clearly.

After my third prescription, I decided to do something to improve my eyesight. Here are some things I did and still do to improve my sight.

1. When using the computer or even watching TV try to blink often. By keeping the eye constantly open we put pressure on them so its good to blink.

2. Do eye exercise! Make an effort to stare at something in the distance every 30-60 mins for 30 seconds. This exercise helps improve focus of distant objects, by preventing the eye becoming “used” to focusing only on objects that are close.

Nodding the head up and down is another exercise. This exercise will strengthen the neck muscles, therefore increasing blood circulation to the head and eyes.

3. Eat healthy! Consume fruits and vegetables that are rich in Vitamin A. Carrots contain beta-carotene, a substance that the body converts to vitamin A, an important nutrient for eye health.

I haven’t had a new prescription ever since I started following these simple tips! I believe that the media influences us to watch TV and use the computer. Which make use more attached to our TV’S and computers. But by following these tips we can enjoy using the technology without sacrificing the health of our eyes!

The Pressures of Fitting In....and Not Fitting In

For all teenagers, there's always been the pressure of fitting in, or to be a part of the in crowd. We've all been down that path before; just some of us choose not to conform to what the media considers "cool", "trendy", or "the latest fad."

Teens are always concerned about the latest trend in everything; from bright American Apparel sweatshirts, neon coloured sneakers, silly bandz, and keds, to Formspring, iPhones, and Blackberries (and no, I ain't talking about the fruit, but you already knew that didn't you? My point exactly). Buy the right pair of shoes and BAM you're in the cool crowd all of a sudden. It's pretty crazy when a single materialistic object can change one's social status at school.

But in recent years, there's been a new trend...of not following the trend. And no, that was not a typo, you heard me right: not following the latest fad. Yes, ladies and gents, I'm talking about hipsters. Suddenly you're too mainstream, listening to Katy Perry and wearing a Hollister hoodie just like everyone else, and you're not that cool anymore. You're cool if you listen to Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, buy your groceries at organic food stores, and wear slouchy knit hats, unlike everybody else. It's funny how the world works, isn't it?

It's actually kind of ironic. You don't want to try too hard, and yet you're trying too hard to not try too hard. You don't want to follow the latest trend, and yet you're following the latest trend of not following the latest trend. I can respect hipsters who do their own thing because they want to, and not because they want to seem cool, or "hip" I should say, because of it. It's always annoying listening to the guy criticize others because they wear the latest fashion trends or listen to radio stations like 104.5 CHUM FM. I sometimes follow trends, and sometimes I don't. I would not consider myself a trend follower or a hipster. I wear and listen to what I want, not because it's in style or cool to do so. But hey, if everyone else happens to like the same band or pair of shorts that I do, then that's cool too.

Ask yourself, who are you?

At this moment, this day, this hour, this second, this millisecond you have.. ask yourself. Who are you?



How do you fully know who you are as a person? Are you living the life that everyone think you have?



People on the streets, who are they? Are they just a poor person who doesn't have home? Yes, some may have debt or metal issues, but how do they know who they really are?






__________________________________________________________________



French Philosopher Rene Descartes' famous saying, "Je pense donc je suis (I think, therefore I am)."
As I was reading his book, I thought about it over and over. -"I think, therefore I am." What can this mean?


Then I came into a weird mind map stage where I thought to myself, a common mistake that people make is that people take the statement as proof that they, as a human person, exist. However, it is a severely limited conclusion that does nothing to prove that one's own body exists, let alone anything else that is perceived in the physical state. I think that it is only proven that one's mind exist (person observing and doubting). It does not rule out other possibilities, such as waking up to find one to be a butterfly who had dreamed of having lived a human life.



So according to Descartes' theory, the physiological thinking within the person is what makes who you are.

However, If I think I'm a nice person, does that make me a nice person?Someone who have sinned greatly, but yet they think they did nothing wrong. Does that mean, they really did nothing wrong?



Moreover, Maslow's triangle also said we need to fulfil our physiological needs before we fulfil other needs.


Until now, I can't say "this is the answer to this question", since this question is open to interpretation. However, I think that the physiological mind set you have, shape the person you are.


Thus, because our senses sometimes deceive us, I would suppose that nothing is such as they make us to imagine it; and because I was as likely to error as another in reasoning, I rejected as false all the reasons which I had accepted as demonstrative; and finally, considering that all the thoughts we have when awake can come to us also when we sleep without any of the being true. I resolved to feign that everything which had ever entered my mind was no more truth than the illusion of my dreams.




BUT I observed that, while I was thus solved to feign that everything was false. I who thought must of necessity be somewhat; and remarking this truth. I think, therefore I am was so firm and so assured that all the most extravagant suppositions for the sceptics were unable to deny it.



Therefore, I think that the thoughts we have and what we are influenced into without knowing is the physiological thinking.

EPISODE V: JUDGE ME BY ME SIZE, DO YOU?

EPISODE V: JUDGE ME BY MY SIZE? DO YOU?
My past 4 blogs have been about the same thing over and over. I don’t regret doing them but this time around I feel like I should be blogging about something other than anything geeky related, something different. So I was on my iPod today listening to my everyday music, and then my fifth blog post came to mind. Why not blog about the kind of music I listen to, the kind of music nobody likes, yes, post hardcore music.
I’ll be blogging about post hardcore music, you know when you turn on the radio and you listen to th---, oh wait, they don’t play post hardcore music in the radio. Why? Because it’s the kind of music that has requires no talent and has no melody. The kind of music where the lead vocalist screams nonsense on the mic. The kind of music where its so underground that they don’t even play on the radio. The kind of music where the guitarist plays the same notes over and over again. The kind of music that’s the crappiest genre out there.

But I’m here to prove you wrong.

Post hardcore music is great, actually, its freaking amazing. You would think that its just noise at first listen, but when you put a lot of personal research into the lyrics, the album artwork, the band name, and the song names, it can get really moving and things start to get serious and intense. I got my younger brother and my other friends into this kind of music, and I’ll try to get you readers to reconsider too.

We hear the song and right after 20 seconds in we change it, we change it because the guy is screaming like he’s being murdered. First off all, screaming takes talent, just like playing the guitar or learning how to sing. Its not like you just scream into a mic and that’s it, there’s more to it and there’s an actual technique.

Speaking of vocals, that brings me to my next segment, the song names and lyrics. And no, not all of it is “emo” (stop saying that lol, its gone and its dead). Personally, this is my favorite parts in screamo music. Not all of their songs include screaming, there’s singing too. However, bands get really, really, really deep and creative in this. A perfect example of this is a song called “You Be Tails, I’ll Be Sonic” by a band called A Day To Remember. I want you to hear the song as you read further. I’ve linked the song below.

You Be Tails, I’ll Be Sonic - A Day To Remember

Luckily, A Day To Remember is fronted by a great vocalist that can actually sing, so you can bear through this one easier. The song opens up one guitar, with a heavy rift, you also get that feeling where your anticipating a scream any minute. “He’s gonna scream any minute, I know it” The first verse is this:

I’m a mess
that’s the best way to describe it
Having no time to myself is the only way I could fight it
When I’m alone, its like im staring right into a mirror.
Don’t know the person inside it and that’s never been any clearer

Now tell me, HOW THE **** CAN YOU GET LYRICS LIKE THAT INTO A SONG LIKE THIS? Its amazing, its deep, and its gets even better.

I miss your family and I miss all our friends,
If you had it to do over would you do it again?
Cause I would
This meant something more to me
There’s a whole in my heart where you used to be.

Ouch, take a wild guess to where this song is going. You’ve probably figured out the song meaning now, but what about the song title? You Be Tails, I’ll Be Sonic? No, he’s not referring to heads or tails, he’s talking about a video game characters. The writer of this song is trying to relate his relationship with his girlfriend or wife with the characters of Sonic and Tails. Like I mentioned earlier in my blog, it would take a lot personal research to grasp the full meaning of the song.

What I really like about the albums in hardcore music, is the fact that they don’t have their faces in the front cover. We walk into music stores in HMV and we see Justin Bieber’s face in the front cover of his latest album, I found that most of the mainstream artists do that. But with underground hardcore music, these covers have meaning. Here’s an example, take a look below and guess. Remember to keep in mind the artwork, and remember to look at the band name and album name.


OMG IT’S A TERRORIST ATTACK. Okay, now look at the track listing.

1. House of The Anubis
2. Epiphany
3. The Wretched
4. Consider It Mutual
5. 2012
6. Dream Catcher
7. Like Father Like Son
8. Battle Royale
9. You’re All I See
10. We Know Who You Are

De-ceive
1. (of a person) Cause (someone) to believe something that is not true, typically in order to gain personal advantage.
2. (of a thing) Give a mistaken impression.

What do you think? At first glance, we see a faceless man holding a ski mask. Right off the bat we tell ourselves that this is evil music. But think again, its not. The concept of this album is about deceiving. First off, the tracklisting. Every single song in this album is about deceiving, something that isn't true. 2012? We Know Who You Are? Ok what about the album cover? We see a faceless man with a ski mask. Judging by his attire, we can tell that he works for some mafia organized crime stuff. And look at his stance too, as if he's obeying someone more powerful than him. But what does that have to do with deceiving? Well first of all, your hiding your face when you comit crimes, your hiding your true identity. Thats just my interpretation of all this.

Finally, my last section will be about screamo music itself. What this kind music does great is that its really fast paced music, music that gets you pumped and energetic. At live shows, bands really get the crowed going, its boring if your that one person hanging out in all the way in the back, with your arm leaning on the fence and your bobing your head to the beat, its boring. Your supposed to get in there and get all pumped and energetic!

I’ll also add that nowadays, there are many different types of hardcore music. There’s just the standard one with a five piece band. But then there’s bands that combine both hardcore elements and then electronica/techno thing, a great example that combines these two is a band called Attack Attack!

Smokahontas by Attack Attack!

That’s not the only one, there’s also bands that combine the hardcore yells and instruments, but also has a lead singer’s that come from a soul/ R&B background. This song combines them all, its great and you should definitely give it a listen. Actually, give the whole song a listen, cause around halfway through is something that I found very suprising. I found this band really creative, it combines all of what I  mentioned. Amazing, real singing, different but good screams, fast guitars, and a rapper.

Spooks by Dance Gavin Dance

Another good thing about hardcore bands that play live, is that some bands tend to add an "intro" or "opening" song to their live set, that then flows into the next song. Most of these songs last to about under a minute. Here's a good example of that:

A Milli - Of Mice & Men

I could go on about the different types all day but I have one final one to show you. Since hardcore music is really fast paced, energetic music, there’s always going to be that ONE song by EVERY SINGLE hardcore band that is a short, but sweet, song. They last over 2 minutes or under 2 minutes or even over a minute. Here are some good examples.
Wonderland - I See Stars

To wrap things up, next time you hear screamo on the internet, give it a listen and think twice before pausing the song. Yeah okay sure, its noise, but there’s meaning, keep in mind that saying "don't judge a book by its cover". Post hardcore music is energetic, its supposed to be fun. At the ancient dark days, screamo music was about cutting your wrists and BS like that, that’s all out of the way and hopefully gone forever. Like I said, this kind of music is about getting you pumped up. Also, this kind of music has lyrics that have intense, deep meanings, metaphors in every sentence. Keep in mind, the lyrics, album cover, song titles,and what they really mean? I hope this blog post made you appreciate my favorite kind of music.

High fashion or high priced hoax?

It's no suprise that runway shows and designers clothes like Versace are wickedly expensive.
But runway shows seem to be less about clothes and more about being flashing and attention catching for all the wrong reasons.

The fashion industry tends to be over-glamourized and seen as just because it's on a runways & on television viewed by so many people that the clothes must be good, right?


IT'S NOT FASHION, WHEN THEY AREN'T WEARING ANY CLOTHES.

What is deemed as 'high fashion' seems to be less and less about the clothes.
And more about who can put on the most outlandish runway show.

Fashion shows and designers control what sytles and colours are 'in' each season,
and fashion should always center around the clothes.
No matter how over the top or creative the designers get with the clothing, there should still be clothing involved.
When it comes down to it, runways shows have turned into a performance that incororates fashion lines BUT
it not based on showing the pieces in the show.


Runway shows have turned into all hype and creativing contorversy.

So don't buy into all the labels and houses of designer brands simply because of the name.
The clothes should speak for themselves, and in most cases they do not.

What do YOU Think?


What do you make of the many things you are told each day? Do you hear them, say "uh huh" and then tuck them away into the folds of your mind? Do you take it to heart and try to change your self based on what the recommendations are? Or do you just bush it off, thinking what you know is how its been, and it won't change? New information, facts and statistics are released almost every day. They tell us what we should and shouldn't do, how things work now and give us predictions of what the future will be and guesses of the past. They often contradict themselves, and replace previous knowledge.

What is released to us may not even be fair towards the truth. The results may be slanted to support a particular interest group, or so vague that the results lose their meaning. What are we supposed to believe when views change so frequently?

That is up to you.

Make your own decisions. based on what you learned, not what someone tells you. Research the topic instead of digesting whatever is put in front of you. You are allowed to think for yourself, don't be swayed by what others think. They are not the ones who make the decisions in your life. At the end of the day, the only opinion that really matters is your own.

Creativity

Creativity.



We can express creative motion by 30 different colours of crayon, marker, construction paper, pipe cleaner, pom poms and other art supply. With this we can express our thoughts and imagination about our own world. Singers express their feelings by singing. Singing is how they talk and describe in their story to us. Musicians pour out their soul to share their feelings and to interact with one of us. Writers write about the story they want to share.


But if all feelings and emotions can be expressed in words, then why is there art? Why is it there a necessity for us to show visually on paper or some kind of format.





We are creative everyday.




Some people may use media to portray their thoughts on a certain issue. They use creativity to share and devote other people to do the same. I just want to say that, creativity is a way to express beyond our box.





"So let your simple thought be illustrated through your talent with your creativity!"

Don't Follow Them

Role Models.

They can be important. They motivate you to do better and to strive for your best.

The problem is, a lot of role models we see everyday are the BAD ones.

For example, celebrity role models.
A few not so great female celebrities:
Britney Spears, Amy Winehouse, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Ke$ha, Miley Cyrus, Taylor Momsen and so on.

These are people we see everyday and despite us attempting to ignore them they still weasel their way in. Not only to us but for younger girls who don't really realize the negativity of it all.

Britney Spears was at one point a good girl.  But as many have seen in the media in the past years she has spun completely out of control. No panties in public, drug issues, her 55 hour marriage with Jason Allan to her overly sexual image and to think she is a mother.

Same goes for Lindsay Lohan. She was respectable at one time but she threw her career away for parties, extreme drug issues and even has spent time in jail. Even her father is worried about her influence over her younger 15 year old sister.

Miley Cyrus at one point was a HUGE role model for girls. Her Hannah Montana faze was perfect.  Then she used the excuse 'I'm growing up' and begins to party, has been seen with drugs begins to become overly sexual in her music videos and even pole dances at kids choice awards.

Taylor Momsen was famous for her roles in The Grinch and in Gossip Girl. She is just a year older then most of us being at the age of 17(1993). She has been quoted when saying extremely sexual sayings and promoting female masturbation several times in interviews. What she wears is just WAY to sexual for someone her age let alone to even be worn in public.







Many do turn a blind eye to it and say "oh they can do what they want. It doesnt affect anyone."
But it does. Every day.  When someone decides they want to be like them, then they follow the trend.

Celebrities in general are VERY influencial over people of all ages which is why we need a cleaner image for people to be influenced by and to take on as role models.

GaGa`s Controversy

The new hit song "Judas" by lady gaga is really a song created to push the limits and boundaries. It is said that lady GaGa is the modern day Madonna and as we all know Madonna was also one to really push the limits in terms of her music. Lady GaGa tends to sexualize religion in many of her videos. For example in her music video for "Alejandro" GaGa swallows a rosary this first real kick at religion caught people off guard, but her latest song Judas in my personal opinion has taken it to far and thousands of people agree. her new music video features clips like GaGa riding a motorcycle with a man with a crown of thorns on his head (jesus) and falling in love with Judas (the disciple that betrayed Jesus), Gaga in a bathtub with Jesus and Judas etc. for somebody who is a religious person such as myself, this music is very offensive. I understand that GaGa is very different and that she wants to do different things in the industry. but when you place religion into the concept i believe that is taking it way to far. something that i also notice is that Christianity is the only religion that gets torn apart and made fun of in our society. Even "Jesus Christ" is a swear word. you never walk around and hear somebody say "Oh Buda !!" why is that? in conclusion i think LadyGaGa is taking her music to the level of unacceptable and offensive and if she continues along this path i think she will loose many fans including myself.

We're SO Not Prepared for Zombies, Dude




Now, we all know that one day some of those undead bastards are gonna rise from their grave and start muckin' up all the shiny things we cherish. But who's ready for it? Maybe Jim in Alabama with a dozen rifles in his abode and the surrounding land covered in land-mines and bear traps, but the average joe is pretty much screwed. We're all so comfortable in our nice warm homes that when some jerk with half of his face torn off and a nasty infection comes knockin' on our doors, we wouldn't hesitate open them with open arms, straight into the slavering jaws of a zombie. Welp, there goes my jugular and oop I now hunger eternally for the flesh of the living! Tough break, kid, you were unprepared.




The cities are a deathwish. They'll be the first ones hit and are a haven for the members of the undead, whereas the countryside is much safer (for the most part). The military is pretty much cannon fodder despite all their heavy machinery and automatic weaponry, only adding to the danger of getting our arms chomped on. Keeping away from the city or at least staying in the outskirts is your best chance for survival. A floor or two of an apartment building is good for large groups of survivors as you can always keep the stairwell barricaded (to an extent so you can send out scavenging parties).


Pretty much what I'm trying to say is that if some scientist in a lab accidentally made some virus that reanimated the dead, then we'd be straight screwed, plain and simple. Our world would be lost to the undead menace and that'd pretty much be that. So stock up on your canned goods and ammunition people, because they're coming, it's just only a matter of when.

Male Weight Loss

When you think of eating disorders, what comes to your mind? Girls or boys? I bet the first gender that came to your mind were females, right? Although eating disorders are the most chronic illness in the female adolescent population, about 10% of the total statistic is male. Male's are more at risk then female's because most of the time, male eating disorders are misdiagnosed.

There are two main eating disorders, bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa. What are each of these specifically? Anorexia nervosa is a refusal to maintain a healthy body weight and an obsessive fear of gaining weight. Bulimia nervosa is restraining of food intake for a period of time followed by and over intake or "binging" period that results in feelings of guilt and low self-esteem. Both of these are considered female illnesses even by the men who have the illness. Just because the majority of people who have these illnesses are girls/women it doesn't mean the men are homosexual. About 80% of males with eating disorders are heterosexual. Also, 5-16% of patients with bulimia are male, and since they are males, many are denied treatment. Because of this, many male cases go unreported.

Another popular way for men to lose weight and gain muscle is by taking anabolic steroids. Anabolic steroids are artificial substances that are extremely similar to the male sex hormone, testosterone. These are used to increase their physical appearance where bigger is better, also referred to as reverse anorexia. When people take steroids, they can either be injected or they are in pill form.

All the pressure girls feel having to have the "perfect" body, guys feel it too. In the media it is portrayed that all guys should have amazing abs and extraordinary arms so they can get all the chicks. In most cases girls are looking for an average guy, someone who let's them feel comfortable in their own skin as well.

Relationship between a guy and a girl

Have you ever been in a relationship? Or had a crush on someone? Or been in love? Well let me tell you from girl's perspective about what typical girl feel during the relationship.




Starting a relationship usually starts off as friends. Friends sometimes turn into a closer relationship such as, best friends. Best friends are not just a friend, but are friends that are like sisters or brothers. Sometimes friends know you more than you know yourself. Moreover, Best friends know more about your feelings, even before you tell them what's wrong. But, now the thing is, this best friend of yours turned into someone you're in love with. At first you don't know your own feelings, or know how to react around them. You constantly, want to impress this guy by wearing your favourite clothes, favourite jewellery and favourite shoes. Tiny impressions that were never taken into consideration such as, piece of a hair out of a place or even, how you walk is driving the girl insane. As the girl is thinking about tiny things that the guy will never notice, the guy whom confronts her saying he likes her. The girl feels like she has gotten everything. She starts to flirt around him and makes sure he is in love with her, just as the girl is in love with him. The guy on the other hand, thinks being "mysterious" and not texting back the girl will ATTRACT the girl more. Well WRONG. Every time, "mysterious" act, will motivate the girl to dig her own grave. She thinks about every possible solution about why he is being a jerk. Why he can't be like Romeo who dedicates all his life for a love one. As she compares Romeo and Juliet's scenario, she confronts her girlfriends and gossip. She vents on her friends, asking for advice. Some friends will say his not worth it or some say move on. Well what happens when you know that guy is not the greatest person, yet you know for a fact, you're in love with them. It is for a fact that, if you move on, there are millions of guys out there who can be so much better to you, yet you're in love with a total jerk.




Oh drat. So by this point the girl: is thinking about the guy and wants to talk to him. She is waiting for a text, even though the guy fully said he is busy. Then, from this stage, girls would exaggerate everything to one extend, and thinks about "Why is he putting THAT over me?", "Does he not like me?" Moreover, guys want to solve things and make decisions on the spot; on the other hand, girls likes to talk about it and want explanations.




Furthermore, as the situation appears as the couple couldn't handle the hardship anymore. Then, the girl mostly likely would confront the guy without any breakup intention to "talk". On the other hand, the guys usually think when girls say let's "talk" they refer to it as "breakup" or "serious talk". The guy however, will act cool and bring up the conversation about breakups. The girl's intention was obviously to just talk. Not Breakup.




With all the reasons, guys move on fast on to another girl. Flirting with girls, like her never had a girlfriend. Or even, on the stage of picking out his next girl. This is the difference between girl and a guy. Girl likes to talk about it, while the guy wants to solve everything according to that spot.




Behind the screen, you cannot judge people by how they talk. However, I wanted to share my point of view on how girls have more dedications and things to worry in the relationship than guys.

Episode I: A Galaxy Far Far Away


Episode I: A Galaxy Far Far Away.

Oh HAI, i didnt see you there. My name is darthrasberry321 but people call me darthrasberry. I bet your thinking....."THATS AN AWESOME NAME!, HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THAT?!?" Well let me tell you young one, at the time the force was strong with this one so I came up with two of my favorite words. Darth and Raspberry, and combined them together. From here on I will be blogging about everything Star Wars, believe it, and also believe that I am not typing with my fingers, i am using the force to type for me.

I've decided to dedicate my first blog about the world of Star Wars and how much of an impact it made on mankind. Star Wars (believe it or not) is the greatest thing thats ever happened to this place called Earth. I think everyone in this planet are familiar with Star Wars. If you've never seen Star Wars, then your missing out on life. Star Wars became a world wide phenomenon after its first movie, released 1977. At the time that movie was greatest, nothing else was like it, it was very original and after its released it has changed humans and the film industry forever. Star Wars was like, the James Cameron Avatar of this generation. BTW Star Wars is better than Avatar, like WTH is this Avatar movie anyways, Star Wars is also better than Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, James Bond, and if anyone says Twilight is better than Star Wars i will force choke you legit.

Not only is Star Wars on the big screen, but theres also t.v shows, books, action figures, LEGO EVEN, comics, graphic novels and even video games. Its everywhere, I remember floating my way into Chapters and they had a whole aisle just dedicated to Star Wars. The world of Star Wars and all of its people and things are just awesome. You can't get anymore badass than Darth Vader or be more wise than Yoda. Every single character is very likable and there is not one character in Star Wars that you will hate. But what I personally think what makes Star Wars the greatest is not only its enviroment and characters, but the storyline. Star Wars is all about family. I don't wanna spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but Star Wars is all about family, from beginning to end. I personally think family is most important, nothing is more important that family. It touched me and it has made me cry. I shed a tear. I'm sorry, I couldn't cry at all at The Notebook or Toy Story 3, i cried my eyes out on Star Wars. 

Going back to when I said Star Wars has impacted mankind so much, I meant it in a good way. Take for example Grand Theft Auto the video game, watching Star Wars isn't gonna make you kill someone, its gonna wanna make you become someone like me, a total Star Wars geek. Star Wars is also a movie with tons of memorable quotes, classic ones like "Vader Luke, I am your father!" and "Leia I love you!/ Solo I know...". Star Wars has made a significant impact on the world, I can't even stress that enough. There have been so many parodies and such, its crazy. Family Guy has episodes and even DVD movies dedicated to Star Wars. Also, ever seen crazy Star Wars kid on Youtube?

When you think about it, Star Wars is somehow like the internet, how its changed mankind. Not only is Star Wars LITERALLY EVERYWHERE WOW. But its just an amazing storyline and series. It became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. Everything is amazing in Star Wars, the characters, story, the world. From the lightsabers and force pushing, to the intense storyline, and to the very likable characters. Star Wars is definetely a movie series you shouldn't miss out.
