Tales of the Sith(girl)
If you recall Sariah Gallego, the adorable girl who pledged her allegiance to Darth Vader at the Disney Star Wars thingamajig, you may enjoy this interview with her where she talks about her love of Star Wars in general and the Sith in particular. It’s a little disconcerting to see she already has her own “Sithgirl” banner and shirt — I hope her parents are just rolling with the internet fame, as opposed to trying to exploit it — but for now, it’s still pretty adorable. Thanks to DJRM for the tip.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
