"If you run into somebody who tells you they thought the franchise was quite enjoyable, and they very-much liked the originals as well as the prequels, and even own everything on DVD, and a few of the books, these imposters are not Star Wars Fans...The primary fulcrum for the Star Wars fan’s hate (including my own) is George Lucas, creator of Star Wars."
That was pretty great! It saddens me, though, the number of people that *didn't* get the point of that article... (The intelligence of the general population sometimes hits me with a bit of a shock - I mean, this was quite obviously satire. Granted, people who consider themselves true fans of something find satire hard to see, I guess.) Ah, well. Thanks for sharing!
P.S. Darn it, I might never be able to get that song out of my head... "Tra la la la la la!"
No, it's actually largely serious. Real Star Wars fans honestly feel this way- or at least, you can find a good-sized chunk of real Star Wars fans who will agree with any given chunk of it.

Best bit: "Star Wars fans did not hate Grand Admiral Thrawn, but we do now, because he is always dead."
