Are there any downsides to a Lightsaber?

Ok..I've waited for a thread like this....

I've done a lot of studying, a lot of pondering, and a lot of philosophizing on this topic, and I can say, without a doubt, that there are NO downsides to having a lightsaber, ever.

You are a professional comedian right?
What is your stage name?
Because I don't remember hearing of alexios on HBO.
 
I think that you're just a closet nerd, heartbreaker. you knock it, yet you keep coming back to read it...

besides, I don't think that anyone here is trying to say that star wars is in any way real. they are just talking about the logistics of things. I don't see that as any more irrational than 500 pages about 'who wants to fuck who with what and where.' and I'd much rather talk about how a lightsaber works than about why a guys dick doesn't. IMO
 
its about time a decent topic of conversation appeared here in the Talk section:)

Me too :1orglaugh i have come up with the same conclusion. the light saber in the hands of a master (i would probably put myself in that category lol) is the perfect weapon for man on man combat it also has lots of other uses like slicing your toast or peeling potatoes.:thumbsup:

not so great for eye surgery though.
 
it depends whether you want to remove the whole eye or not :)

I wonder whether they have surgical spec 'light scalpals' in the starwars universe.<ponders>
 
Could you boil water with a lightsaber?

Hey, that would be really useful for when I wanted to make Kraft Dinner.

But we are all forgetting the really important question here: Would Wolverine be able to kick Darth Maul's ass????
 
wolverine could kick gods ass.
 
The biggest downer I can think of is if your girl doesn't know you're a Jedi and thinks it's a dildo...

If she survives, she'd be able to fit just about anything up there.
 
I've always wondered what Jedi sex must be like...no erection problems (do or do not, there is no try) since you can "use the force". 100% guaranteed orgasms (since you know the force, it'll tell you what to diddle for best results), levitation, etc...

All this potential and they're not supposed to really fool around. Talk about frustration - it'd be like having a 12 inch pecker on a desert island with 100 women and being impotent.
 
as for the above stated reason a traditional projectile would be neutralized (read: completely annihilated) by the lightsaber.
.
error. pick an eye at wookiepedia, Behind the scenes.

the only real downside is they are kind of hard to build. the crystals that are neccesary to making them work are hard to find. it can take up to a year to make one, and the task of doing so is what qualifies an apprentice to become a jedi knight.


Siths are currently using synthetic crystals.

You can fool around you just can't fall in love or get married.
