He's probably envious of we who not only have lightsabers...
...but who also have a date (July 20th, to be precise :-)
I dated a Stars Wars fanatic with mixed success when I was 25. He was actually quite romantic, but the action figures collection he had in his bedroom gave me the screamin' willies, and made me feel a little like I was dating someone's little brother.
Nice as Star Wars guys may be... I am quite sure the best date is a Lord of the Rings fanatic. I dig guys that can can speak poetry in Elvish, or will admit to getting teary eyed at the choices of Master Samwise or the fall of Boromir. Here's to all the good LoTR lovin' men I know (I hope I have not forgotten anyone!)
