Textpan V: Yoda Coda
This was originally heard in Deadpan 144: Gross.
–
Do you think for Yoda’s last birthdays, his family lit 800 candles on a cake and sang “to you, birthday happy”?
–
What if Yoda was also dyslexic?
–
Do you think Yoda uses that creepy Darth Vader tree for storage when he’s not training a student? Like that’s where he keeps his hedge trimmers?
–
Do you think Yoda even notices when his toilet on Dagobah overflows?
–
Do you think Yoda would have preferred to just die in peace, without having some punk jedi acolyte badgering him with questions during his final moments?
–
Wouldn’t Yoda have quadrupled his credibility if he’d grown in a mustache and goatee?
–
Forget earmuffs, does Yoda’s species wear earsocks in winter?
–
What is Yoda, 20 inches tall? How the hell could you throw a pitch into his strike zone?
–
And if he didn’t use any force powers, who’d win in one-on-one basketball, Yoda vs. Mini-Me?
–
Do you think Luke Skywalker still has the ghosts of Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Anakin hanging around him, even after the Empire is destroyed? Dispensing advice, wisdom, and encouragement as he goes through day-to-day activities? Building that extra room on the house, uncomfortable bowel movements, clipping nosehairs, helping the kids with algebra homework, negotiating with jawas for droids, having sex with Mara Jade. . . What would happen if he called the ghostbusters on them?
Olympic Hockey Results and Anthem Requirements
So, a few of us at Deadpan selected some Olympic hockey teams in a little no-money wager. If a Deadpanite’s selected team loses to someone else’s, then the losing player must record themselves singing the winner’s national anthem. Get it?
The image below shows the participants and their teams, plus the results as of the completion of the first round, or the Olympic Tournament’s “Regular Season”, if you will. The circled names on the chart are required to sing their opponent’s team’s national anthem. The medal round is up next; ie: “The Playoffs”. There may be further Deadpan-relevant matchups to come.
The medal round rematch rule: If your team loses a second time to the same team, then you don’t need to re-perform that national anthem. If your team won in the prelims but goes on to lose to that same opponent in the medal round, then I guess you and your rival are both due to record some singing.
I’ve made this seem more complicated than it really is. Many thanks to The Energizer Bunny for creating this chart.
