Pink Lightsaber?

[Jesterz]

What's with all the Pink light sabers in a lot of people's avatars?

Is it some sort of Escapist meme?

Two escapist members recently lost their unborn child and it is sort of a memorial. Read this.

OK thanks for the explanation,

Its a terrible shame that.

Indeed it is. It says something about the community's solidarity how many people edited (or, more likely, had Fanboy edit) their avatars in support.

It feels a bit inappropriate to post this(and it felt even more so on Darth's post), but I would like to get one to show my respects for Leia. Could you maybe tell me where/who I should ask to get one?

Same.

There is a member named "Fanboy."
He is the master of avatar plastic surgery. You've seen his work, no doubt. It is excellent.

If you have seen the Holiday theme thread that floats up to the front page every so often, you'll find Fanboy in there if you wish to find a thread rather than message him.

I never even heard. I'm terribly sorry for both of you.

This is the third [Edited <3:]... time this has been asked.
I swear to the ... in heaven if people don't start using the Search button or keeping it to PM's, I will ... kill again.

-hug- Don't Worry, Be Happy. Come and sing with me!

Just ignore them and move on, go smash a mirror in the street if it angers you so much. You might even get lucky and pop someone tires.

I would also like to show my respects.
How do i get him to give me one?
Do i just send him a message telling him to give me one?

I thought it was the second.

 

[FinalGamer]

My condolences to Darth Mobius.
And here I was thinking it was a terrible meme, for shame.

 

[Drake the Dragonheart]

No one deserves to have that happen to them.

What is your problem, man? I swear, you're always like the first person to enter a thread and start bashing people, and it really needs to stop. Why don't you just report things? And, I like you, and you have decent posts, but I just see way too much of this from you, and somebody has to say something. Most of the time, it's just a simple mistake, and you jump down their throats for it.

Maybe we need to make the search button more prominent or something so people will use it more? I don't know, but I would agree people need to be more aware of it.

Listen, he's a little worn down, all of us are, but fact is, the pink lightsaber threads were on the second or so page when this was posted, he didn't need to search it.
I agree though, his yelling was excessive, and the search button needs to be more prominent and fixed.

Go to the Holiday Council thread and just post a comment saying you would like a lightsaber added to your avatar.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

thats what they were for. i thought they were for canidates running in the presdential elections. everyone i know that has one is running in the election. but now i see the connections. (man i feel stupid)

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

I figured that's what they were for. Does anyone have a .gif of the sabre itself for those of us who would like to put it on our avatars ourselves?

But what's it all about? Is it some new sort of gay jedi thing going around? Please esplain!!! Teeheehee.

Anyway, in commiseration for this event I made a whole new avatar! Not as creepy as the last one but still interesting.

Edit: What the F! It cut out half the damn picture! Back to the resizing board ;.;

I seriously hope you just haven't read the rest of the posts in this thread.
