I posted this on Twitter and on Facebook today and got a mixed response so it gave me a good idea for a blog post. In Episode 5 of Star Wars there's a point in the movie where the following happens:
How pimp is that?
Immediately after posting this to Facebook it was "Liked" by four people but had no comments. I gues my Facebook friends agreed with me.
But Twitter. Well, Twitter got a different response from two people. Apparently it's not the optimal response to the phrase. I can understand that but you have to look at the specific situation. Leia and Han have been running around for two whole movies dancing around the fact that they're in love with each other. Well, Han knows but Leia is in denial until that moment. I think that makes the response so pimp. He's non-chalant and cool about it even though he's about to be frozen in carbon and might die.
I tried to explain that to one of the Tweeters that it all depends o the situation. Nope, there is no situation where that is pimp. I don't know if I completely agree.
So, this is a call to you my readers (all five of you). What are your thoughts? I guess you kind of have to be a fan of Star Wars to really understand and respond but even if you're not a fan you should write a comment so I know I actually have readers and can validate myself. Ready? Comment!

*Note, this is paraphrased. I don't know it by heart*
Vader: "Put him in"
*Leia and Han kiss*
*Storm troopers put Han in carbon freezing chamber*
Leia: "I love you"
Han: "I know"
