Results of poll

Yesterday, I posted a poll.

It did not involve cake.

However, the answers and explanation are under the cut.


The top, and correct, answer was: It's Han Solo in Carbonite from the original Star Wars trilogy. Now gimme my prize.

No prizes, sorry. Not even cake.

Also correct: It's that guy from Star Wars. Amirite?

Right indeedy!

As for the rest:

Is this a trick question?
Actually, no, it wasn't.

Are you drunk?
Unfortunately not.

Is there anyone who doesn't know who this is?
Ah... See below.

You're really bored, aren't you?
I wasn't after discovering my flist's obsession with cake.

So...

One of my carers is redecorating. She's found the perfect light switch for her bedroom. She showed me a pic of it.

Yes.

Only, it turned out she had no idea who it was - she just liked his switch. Cue me explaining Han Solo, Carbonite, Darth Vader, and Jabba the Hutt.

And none of the carers I asked had any idea who Han Solo was.

Apparently, this is how my carers now view me:

Oh dear, they didn't know who Han Solo was? Educational standards are definitely falling!! :)

As for the light switch, well, yes, maybe that's not the best place for the switch to go... and the other hand, though...! :D

LOL! You can buy it where the switch goes in Han's stomach, but that's not as amusing.
