You may recall back in the infancy of this blog (time wise, not emotional maturation), we had a brief spat with the psychos winners of the 501st. Then Princess Leia (slave style) flashed her sweater pups and we apologized.
Well, we found someone — the Church of Jediism, Anglesey edition — that makes the 501st look tame as hell. Assuming “wild” (crazy may be more appropriate) can involve being obsessed with an obviously fictional movie that doesn’t even contain a mog named Barf.
The group, which claims about 30 members, says on its Web site that it uses “insight and knowledge” from the films as “a guide to living a better and more worthwhile life.”
Super sweet. But, wait. There’s more. These peeps got attacked by some random drunk European rocking out a Darth Vader costume.
A man who dressed up as Darth Vader, wearing a garbage bag for a cape, and assaulted the founders of a group calling itself the Jedi church was given a suspended sentence Tuesday.Arwel Wynne Hughes, 27, attacked Jedi church founder Barney Jones — aka Master Jonba Hehol — with a metal crutch, hitting him on the head, prosecutors told Holyhead Magistrates’ Court.
Suspended sentence??? Someone give this guy a freaking medal. But that’s not even the best part.
And neither is the fact that he was drunk on two boxes of wine. The best part is that he got busted because the supernerds Jedi people had a camera set up to film a light saber duel. In lieu of further snarkiness, we present this church, in a microcosm.
