GhostalmediaDoes Star Wars Kid still retain any value?
SighBapanadaI remember the back story of this. The kid who recorded this left the tape in his a/V class which was then found by other students. He was then bullied to the point of having to leave his school, if I remember correctly. No real point that I’m making just remember thinking it was interesting
Flying SquidIt’s always bothered me that people laughed at it, to be honest. It’s “let’s laugh at the fat kid.” Sure, he’s doing something silly. So what? Haven’t we all done silly things? But he’s also fat. And I think that’s a big part of this.
His weight adds a lot to it I’m sure, but his general lack of grace or coordination is generally what makes it funny to people imo. Like it’s a hilariously bad impression of a lightsaber battle, so bad that I think most people assumed it was staged/self-aware. I think it could be a 60 year old woman or an 8 year old kid, it’d still be funny.
