Star Wars Dork

I guess this high schooler videotaped himself whilst in a fit of raging dorkishness. His friends did the rest, by sharing this with peer-to-peer networks ... unbeknownst to the completely out of control wild dork, er, poor kid! Christ, I'd be embarrassed for the remainder of my life!

    That may be Dan in the process of morphing into 'Mantis.'

    I think Dan was side stepping and attacking the attack!

    I just showed this to my roommate. He came into my room once he heard all my laughing. Supposedly this kid is suing for mental anguish since it got swiped and put up on the internet. Also, supposedly, there are other versions by similarly dorky people with special effects and better sound effects.

    Oh yeah..there are more videos. http://jedimaster.net/ My personal fave is the benny hill version. Somebody put a lot of time into the special effects and sounds on some of those. Check out Star Wars Kid 2.0

    That poor kid. His innermost dorkery is being viewed by millions. If I were him I don't know if I'd go postal or try to make an acting career out of it.

    Never put anything on film of any kind if you aren't prepared for someone else to see it.

    This did make the rounds quite awhile ago. Poor kid. Probably be best to embrace the experience, try to get on Leno.

    I saw a father and son at WalMart... kid must've been at least 12, maybe 13-14. They were trying to return one of those light sabers with the telescoping blade... it was the same one my 3 year old son has. I don't remember playing with those sorts of things at that age. WalMart wouldn't take it back, by the way, no UPC sticker, no receipt, just a sad kid.


    Hey, do you have any naked pictures of your wife?
    Want to buy some?


    I liked the Sid/tweeter image the most... I could actually see that one... maybe that is also what happened to that M&K driver.
    Vvvvvooomm vvvvoom... your powers are weak, old driver.

    I heard on Tech-TV that his parents were sueing not only the 2 kids who put him up to making the video, but the website that sponsors the clip. Seems the kid had a lot of psychological trauma over this video and is constantly being made fun of at school. Dumb parents but cool kid.

    Not only has it made its rounds..but it's on the Bob and Tom show. He thought he was popular before. Now the kid's coast to coast.
