Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

==========

Other universes to visit:

!lotrmemes@midwest.social

!tenforward@lemmy.world

Separatist systems:

!prequelmemes@lemmy.world

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

!star_wars@lemmy.world

!starwars@lemmy.ml

!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

==========

IMPORTANT

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

Technically the truth - the best kind of correct 😉

Laughed at meme, but also noticed the keyhole shaped mount orientation on the lower, doomed, mannequin.

The big part of the hole where the screw head or equivalent mount is always the bottom. You put the hole over the screw head and then move it into the narrow part. Since the lower mannequins narrow parts point down that means if you tried to mount it on a wall it would need to be upside down.

It is probably for mounting face up flat on a table so the orientation doesn't have an up or down when it slides into place. But at first I was like 'cool, you can hang these up when not needed' before noticing the orientation.

So that’s for mounting to a training stand so, for example, the class can see what the the instructor is trying to teach them, while keeping the dummy from constantly sliding around.

Sometimes they’re also used for attachments.

It’s not meant for mounting to a wall- though sometimes they’re stored that way. (Also. If you’re thinking BJs, you should know it’s a rubber skin over a rigid plastic shell, with plastic bag-lungs and a hinge that will break your dick if you forget the head tilt. Yeah. We fired that guy.)
