Nothing forges a relationship quicker than a mutual love of Star Wars. It instantly bonds you. You don’t have to pretend you don’t care that they think Star Wars is the one that uses the Spock hand symbol. «Oh yeah, haha. That’s a different one but I get you, it’s confusing,» you lie through your teeth. No, with another Star Wars fan, you can immediately launch into your complex and detailed review of the Ahsoka series, its triumphs, failures, and how it fits into the overall lore in your opinion. No need to tamp down your nerdiness. 

And then, if you’re lucky, you can embark on a long relationship of hosting parties together every 4th of May and buying each other merch every Christmas. And you can send these memes back and forth to each other until you’re old and grey and your skin looks more like Yoda’s than it does Padme’s.
