Star Wars Pips and Insignia

Although a part of my inner Star Wars geek would (and already has) looked up exactly how the Imperial rank is denoted by various pips and insignia, I had never noticed before…

…is it just me or is Imperial rank contingent on how many Sudafed tablets you can stick to a piece of cardboard?
“Ahh…you successfully got six non-drowsy, three dual relief max and three nasal decongestant Sudafed tablets all stuck to your cardboard. Congrats, you are now a Grand Moff!”

LOL

What is a moff exactly?

I don’t know…but it is Grand…IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

Or it could be one of those watercolor paint sets.

Takes it off his chest, dabs paint brush in water cup and then into green square. “Now, hold still Vader, I want to see a nice profile. There. Good, now just hold still while I paint your portrait.”

I bet he’s out for a promotion. He wants to be a Grand Chuff.

Of course…where did my brain go with your comment?

It puts it watercolors on its chest. It does this whenever it’s told. It puts the watercolors on its chest or else it gets the hose again.

The Star Wars Technical Commentaries has devoted a lot time toward deciphering the rank insignia.

You slay me, Solai! :slight_smile:

this is such a depressing picture–in two threads now. somebody photoshop this man a kitten already!

“Now accept these four Cross pens and carry them always in identical pairs over each breast”…

No photoshop…but…

Captain Needar, I caught us some breakfast. Please prepare it in the usual way, you know how I like my cats.

…IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

Not sure it helps.

okay, all we need is the lolcats caption. do I smell a contest?

Would be funny if ALF was approaching him going “Got Cat?”

Vader ! Behave.
