Daetrin[Admin] Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Tammy's father took her to see Star Wars one evening. During the movie, Tammy alternated between excitement and puzzlement. While leaving the theater, her father asked her if she'd enjoyed the show. "Most of it, Daddy," she replied, "except for one thing. I couldn't understand a word that big furry guy said." "Well, Tammy, that's because he spoke another language, and also because that's just the way the wookie mumbles." -- Anjala E.A.

Sonnenschein Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 well, it took me some with google, but now I get it. For all non native speakers: It's a play on words with "That's the way the cookie crumbles", meaning "something that you say which means that bad things sometimes happen and there is nothing you can do to prevent it, so it is not worth becoming upset about it" (Cambridge Idioms Dictionary) Karin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigger68[501st] Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 wow, we've really evolved with our humor in 30 years...or is it we are stuck there because of the movies???? Cause and effect? Either way it is a sheep joke, BAAAAAAD. But still funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Man, I totally missed the pun. To me the punch line was that the wookie mumbled, e.g. even if you can speak wookie he was hard to understand :-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
