Way to represent part III

[lazypadawan]

A SW collector was busted near Seattle, WA for driving over 100 mph. Not only was his car full of SW goodies--I've been known to temporarily stash things in my trunk myself--the guy was attempting .5 past lightspeed in order to get home and put in an eBay bid on some SW collectible. It doesn't say what the collect-o-holic was trying to buy, but if it was the Bryan Morton Anakin sketch card I just snagged the other day...ha ha! As one of the commenters noted, the collector apparently hasn't heard of eBay Mobile or isn't tech savvy enough to use it.

Here's the full story, lame living-at-home-with-parents joke and all:

But the best part is the comment section, full of funny SW puns and jokes. My favorite: "Before 'the Fall City driver' was the learner, now Trooper McDonald is the master."

*Snort* Poor guy - that must've totally ruined his day.

It's one big, "D'oh!" Glad he didn't kill anybody, all laughs aside.

Sheesh, dude. Way to represent, indeed. Then again, it's not as if the media needs an excuse...

No, it doesn't.

Yeah, you know the Roger Eberts and Entertainment Weaklys of the world are eating this up as further proof.

I gotta say, there are some GREAT comments on that article! It's good to see some fun humor, even if the driver was being an idiot.
