My friend at work, B, and I quote Star Wars pretty much all day. I told B yesterday that his lines were sounding a little wooden and were not matching up to the proper emphasis that was used in the movie. So we had a little practice session.
+ You must learn the ways of the force if you are to come with me to Alderaan.
- Alderaan? I'm not going to Alderaan. I'm in for it as it is.
+ She needs your help, Luke. I need your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing.
So each day B makes me laugh with some quote interjected into everyday conversation. Like, when L asks us to go to lunch with him and I am mulling it over since I brought my own lunch... "You must do what you feel is right, of course."
Or when M is not in his cubicle, you will hear "TK421, why aren't you at your post?"
Actually, these examples make a little too much sense. Usually when B does it, there is no context at all. We will be in a meeting with other people in the company and from out of nowhere he will say: "And now your highness. We will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base." Or "...heaaa you will be. You will be." Or while tapping his notebook "You want thissss."
