Since the unfortunate advent of the Star Wars prequels,  I’ve become more and more suspicious of the supposed goodness and greatness of the Jedi. Seriously,  what an ineffectual,  foolish,  and (often  literally) blind group. You’re trying to discover the hidden  Sith,  and also notice that the emperor is shrouded in darkness,  and can’t put two and two together? Really?

And don’t get me started on Yoda.

Hence my pleasure at finding this gem by Jonathan Last,  one of America’s leading Jedi-sceptics. The title of this post is one of the funniest lines from his article.
