Topic: What do you have in common with Boba Fett?

Some things that I have in common with him are:  never talking to myself, being a cleaning freak, liking helmets and armor (mine are for fencing), owning a carbine rifle (Argentinian Mauser, 1891), and (usually) being brief in speech (unlike my writing).  Also, I read a lot of adventure fiction (his childhood pursuit).  Mentally, I approach his willpower (stubborness) and craftiness (PBEM Combat Mission challenge extended).

If I had the money to do it, I'd create a working model of his armor and weaponry, just in case this world runs to riot.

My '77 Landcruiser is dark green with as much battle damage as Fett's armor.

I do not talk very much. I plan on being a Fugitive Recovery Agent (which is the reason I became a fan of him). I can be ruthless, obssesive, paranoid, moral, and megalomaniacal at times. I do not really have any friends, nor do I want any.

You can't beat having friends. I suggest you change your attitude on that. (just a suggestion)

What I have in common with Fett - When i st my mind to something, I won't stop till it's finished.

wow! I never really relised it until now, but............I have NOTHING in common with my idol! :O

We both hate jedi...

I hope this doesn't open up a can of Mynoks, but those are qualities that I look for in a friend.  You can count me, if you wish.

Tibi jedi, tibi jedi!!  (Sorry, couldn't resist...)

I'm usually a perfectionist. (unless I'm too tired to care, which I guess doesn't match him)

I don't have many friends. In fact I think I can count my friends on one hand, maybe one and a half if I push it.

I can be stubborn.

I'm really good at my job.

I used to want to be a RL bounty hunter, but I've since changed my mind.

I dunno, maybe one or two other things I dunno. Growing up without a dad from about age 10 (I was 9) is something I have in common with him too.

I'm crafty, and tend to use unconventional methods of action and problem solving.
At work, I keep my agenda to myself, and use the weaknesses of others in the organization to achieve my ends. (which I think is the norm for office politics)
I never break my word, though I may fufill an oath to the letter in a way that is unexpected.
Avid reader.
I know how to use a variety of common and uncommon weapons.
I'm a firm believer in retribution and justice.
I'm an insane detail person, and manic about time schedules, deadlines, and completing jobs.
I'm a perfectionist.
I like Hello Kitty.
Oh, and until the corporate name changes, I am in the employ of (quite litteraly) the Empire.

I can only think of two things. We both enjoy reading. And we're both paranoid.

Other than that we couldn't be more different. If Fett and I were to ever cross paths (reality not being an issue.) he'd probably find me annoying. Not because I'd nerd-gasm at him. (Lets just assume I'd never heard of him.) Our personalities would just clash.

Hmm...common..Well I can't find anything... :/

Nerd-gasm?  That's a great expression!

Fett likes Hello Kitty?!

LOl i thought you'd know that.

In common--hmmmm....


I was raised the only child of a single parent.  Brought up to be independant (but something backfired--lol)

I can be very intellectually manipulative when I want to be.

Someone has to push me hard to get me to lose my temper (as my husband has been doing the past couple of days).

I'm well, I WAS quiet--voted quietest girl of my senior class, but that has changed. 

I can be mechanically-minded.  I have taken classes like auto tech, and my grandfather had me using tools at a young age.

I can be rather touchy about my vehicles.

I used to be a bit of a loner--didn't really have a "group", I kinda floated around.  I still have my friends, but I like my "ME" time.

My friends saw me as a perfectionist (as a typical Virgo), but really, I'm not quite.  Not all the time anyway.

Someone once joked with me in high school (this was well before Columbine) that I had a list of people in the works and that I would come back with a rifle in hand...he said "it's always the quiet ones, you know".  He was just trying to get a rise out of me.

The only weapons I own are a few knives.  I have shot a gun before, a rifle, and I liked it--would love to take up something like trap shooting.

*However, I do not care much for Hello Kitty* LOL
(This is a cool topic!) :)

{OFF TOPIC}

HUH?!?! They actually DO THAT?!?! :O Oh, boy.......am I in trouble....


TW

I'm cunning, manipulative, calm, and I prefer to work alone.

He doesn't share everthing with me.  On this point (of Hello Kitty), he knows where I stand on it (I want to sick my Black Kitten of the Sith, "Blaggard", on Hello Kitty), so he's likely avoiding a massive conflict with me.  It's not that he can't kick my ass, it's that he doesn't want to (on account of our friendship or something).

And no, I'm not going to bring it up either!

I have some things in common with Boba Fett. I am good at school, like Boba is good at his job, and I also like guns(you know, like airsoft)

OO! I found something in common...............we both like Boba fett! :D :D


TW

I also love guns. Real guns; my .22, my 243 super short magnum, and my dad's semi-automatic M-16.

I prefer to work alone too, and in low lighting.  With the option of listening to music, I take silence.  It wouldn't do to have anyone catch me unaware.

-we've both killed lots of people...

Lol ur not serious right or are you a serial killer ?

Was Fett a serial killer?  Or was he a soldier/mercenary/bounty hunter?

you do the math.

So your saying your a bounty hunter.
Plus you said you killed lots of people that dosent mean you are a bounty hunter.

apparently you're not so good at math...

Whats goin on here :S ?

I dont know he's confusing me seriously lets get back on topic.

He's probably a soldier, since mercenaries wouldn't really have time to write on forums (they make fighting a way of life, as compared to soldiers that eventually retire from military service).  Today's bounty hunters tend to capture fugitives instead of killing them.

What else do I have in common with Fett?  We both like that cute red-headed alien in Jabba's Palace.  (I was sitting up in my seat when I first saw her, and then freaked out when Fett flirted with her).

OMG! You sound like SciFi!!!

*Deleted by moderator*

He got banned because he insulted people, now you are insulting him.

Do you see the irony?

yeah, I do. Im just so angery because of him. Its like his anger spreads!!! :mad:


TW

Don't sith out, everyone.  Breath...  That's it.  Beware your feelings, as they could be used against you.  Seriously now, they (Sci-Fi, Oblivion, whoever), win control over you without even being here every time you lose your composure on their account.  Why give them so much power?  Fett wouldn't.

"Be Like Boba."  J. R. Duart  -2006

I like that--"Be Like Boba"

Can we get some of those rubber bracelets with that saying on it?  I'm actually not joking here--I don't know who to contact about something like that, but wouldn't that be cool?

One of my classes had a fundraiser with those bracelets, they put a slogan the teacher was known for, and they gave the profits to the "Wounded Warrior" fund.

That's a good cause

John--we need to contact the bracelet people and get these made---your slogan! hehehe

I'd wear it everywhere!

There are blue "Boba Fett" rubber wristbands that feature a Mandalorian helmet.

WHERE?!?! I NEED TO KNOW! Can you get it online? Do you have a link? :/


TW

Yes!  are they on eBay or what??? I want  one too!

They should be Hunter Green...

I doubt that they are official, but I formerly saw mabny on eBay for four dollars.

..........your right dude. I wont do it again..................they DONT have that much power....

"Be like Boba" ;)

"He who angers you owns you." A quote from Boba.

reallY??that was a quote from Boba!? Thats true...............anger blinds you......Scifi will no longer anger me, but I bet I anger him as well! :P He's probably as fustrated as I was. :P anywayz, lets stay back on the topic......."What do you have in common with Boba Fett?" ;)


TW

I like that quote too!

Okay, in common with Boba---well, I think I'm a good shot at those gun games at carnivals...knock a cup off the shelf first shot the three times I played those games lately--latest prize was a Beanie Baby--I chose a dragon. :b  Hubby thinks it's just luck, but I think he's just jealous.

You go, Femme-Fett Fatale!!

*takes a bow* thank you! lol

Now, what to do with these BB guns lying around.  Hey, he brings them home from his dad's and he expects me NOT to play with them??!! ;)
