As Hexbear's resident appointed joyless scold:

this phrasing implies there is only one appointed joyless scold. we have tons

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We have many appointed scolds and many joyless scolds. But only UlyssesT embodies both qualities

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago

Yeah. I had to go through a vetting process to be appointed officially joyless. It involved someone calling me that when I criticized the Gambo treats.

Like I said, meticulous vetting process.

Did any of them show up to this thread and put down a no-fun-allowed sign yet?

I don't think they're as numerous as you're saying.

As usual it's a sci-fi movie with no sense of scale. A million soldiers is enough to conquer maybe a small country on Earth. In the Star Wars universe, assuming their galaxy is about the size of the Milky Way and they have the same approximate rate of planet formation, that's enough clones for a single security guard to cover roughly about 100,000 planets.

Update, I made a mistake, I described Star Wars as sci-fi, that was an error. It's just fantasy with space paint slathered over it. I stand by my other points.

So true. But maybe they've got lots of proxies and vassals? Someone's got to be the Israel of Star Wars.

Also I guess the implication is that the supply is near infinite, on a larger timeframe. I don't know, star wars doesn't make any fucking sense.
