    Turns out my dog will attempt to bite me if I try to re-enact the start of the Star Wars Christmas special. Or maybe he's insulted by my Wookie, which is a bit slurred at this point by quadruple strength white russians.

    Either way, he's never even seen the original films, there's no way he could know about it... Unless...

    Bastard. When I think of the innumerable people whose death he's caused, God has nothing on him.

    The bastard invented gravity, think of the blitz and firebombings and atomic bombings in Japan during WWII, had he not invented gravity they wouldn't have happened.

    And people who die falling off buidlings and down stairs. And his discoveries laid the groundwork for rocketry too; so all the dead astronauts and that cute Russian dog? Blood on Newton's hands.
