    Anakin and Padmé meme: So we’re going to fine them that amount, or force them to refund it to their customers, right?

    Right?

      To be pedantic, in the meme format (as in the original movie), Padmé asks the same question twice. The second question is not just “Right?” https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/for-the-better-right

        I have altered the meme. Pray I don’t alter it more.

            Memes are fair game in this wretched hive of scum and evilitude.

              I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of memes suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

        I’m not usually a stickler for adhering closely to meme “rules” but this one drives me batty. I never have the courage to correct folks though, so have your lemmy gold!

          I’m honored! I’ll never have mutton chops like Kilmister’s, and I’ll gladly accept this honorary form of them instead.

              Ah, I’m not familiar. I couldn’t name a single member of most bands that I like, and while I’ve surely heard them before, I couldn’t name a single one of their songs.
