May the 4th be with you!

Happy Star Wars day, everyone! May the fourth be with you.

Here’s your Wookieepedia reference :

“The phrase dates back to at least 1979, on the day Margaret Thatcher was elected Britain‘s first woman prime minster. Her party took out a newspaper ad in the London Evening News that said “May the Fourth be with you, Maggie. Congratulations.”[1]

Typical festivities consist of inviting fellow Star Wars-obsessed friends to stay over, and then watching the series in succession. Lots of snacks, bring lightsabers and Star Wars-themed toys. Lightsaber fights in the early morning hours optional.”

And, thanks to El Lohse for today’s image. You can get your own copy of the print here.
