I thought he copied the lord of the rings.

Young guy gets cast into adventure by a grey wizard to battle and defeat an evil villain clad in black.

J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings was a principal driving force in the early drafts of the 1977 film. In fact, Lucas nearly copied Tolkien's dialogue, word-for-word, borrowing Gandalf's greeting to Bilbo in The Hobbit.

Both works are based on the conflict between the ultimate good and the ultimate evil. The two sides are represented by a single protagonist, surrounded by a team of helper characters, and a villain, supported by extensive antagonistic forces.

Licas has often cited The Lord of the Rings as a major influence on Star Wars. The superficial stuff is the most obvious, but the subtle lesson Lucas learned from Tolkien is how to handle the delicate stuff of myth. Tolkien wrote that myth and fairytale seem to be the best way to communicate morality.

You mean the balloon knot?

Nothing you won’t expect to see in Rt 90 in Edgerton.

I had one of those on my forehead all through high school.

That’s pretentious but I could deal with it better than a fucking egg.

Your anus has taste buds.

No it fucking isn’t.

…and they always put an egg on top of the burger for fucks sake.

Under capitalism, food isn't produced to eat but to make profits. When it's not profitable to sell, they would rather dump foods, starving the people than to plainly donate.

We produce enough foods to feed the entire population. But the sole purpose of food is to not feed the people, but to feed the greed of the producers, the farmers, the corporates.

Capitalism created an artificial scarcity of food where we produce too much food for the obese and throw the rest away to rot in front of the poor.

Have you tried Affinity Pro?

That's weird, because all I bought in Cuba was booze and cigars.
