I dunno...Something a bit bone-chilling about a 40-year-old man dressed as a droid, isn't there?

Yeah actually, fair enough.Also this is a totally unrelated but amazing quote:
I am not a fan of books. I would never want a book’s autograph. I am
a proud non-reader of books. I like to get information from doing stuff
like actually talking to people and living real life.
—Kanye West, promoting his book “Thank You and You’re Welcome.”

*rolls eyes*Oh yes, Kanye: because it's either/or, isn't it.People who read books never do stuff, talk to people, or live real lives.
*sigh*
It's a false syllogism. But you wouldn't know that unless you had a logician in your posse, or read a book or two!
I believe Kanye's approach can 'work' for rich & powerful geniuses. They just say to a lackey "get me a logician in my posse, stat!". There's some quote from a UK PM (Wilson?) along the lines that books are a waste of time, as he preferred to "just have a 30-minute conversation with the person who wrote it".
