Sordids Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 The SW kid doesnt have it too bad. Have you heard about the guy that got taped while "playing with something of his" (for lack of a better word that could get me banned). It happened a few years ago. The images got on to adult sites. I used worked with him at Office Max. He didnt even know about it at the time. I wonder what he thought when co-workers were making odd hand gestures and saying stuff like "We have a celebrity in the house". Customers would come in with pron star shirts on. They would walk by him and say "I need to go home and play with something of mine". Even hollywood jumped on the bashing bandwagon. Most recently in Italian Job. If you watch the movie you'll spot it right away. I think he's a bit too embarrased to sue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 The SWK was actually a story in my local paper today.. Was kind of weird since I had just learned exactly the whole story behind who the Star Wars Kid was yesterday. Orignally posted by the Associated Press Star Wars Kid: An Internet star is born. AP It was a moment of unadulterated goofiness, the kind of thing anyone might do with no one watching: A teen from Quebec videotaped himself as he pretended to wield a light saber "Star Wars" style. But that private moment went public, very public, when classmates at his high school found the tape in a cabinet and uploaded it onto an Internet file-sharing site this past spring. Now Ghyslain Raza is known far and wide as the "Star Wars Kid," with a fan base that only seems to be growing - even though he doesn't want the attention. The video shows the slightly portly teen awkwardly twirling a golf ball retriever like "Star Wars" bad buy Darth Maul, and has been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times. Websites have been dedicated to the youth. Supporters have raised money for him. And several techies have created their own "clone" versions of the video, adding sound and visual effect(including supposedly someone at Raven) or placing his image in any number of backdrops - from "The Hulk" to "The Matrix." Many teens who post their images on the Web would probably be thrilled to get this kind of attention. But Ghyslain, who made the video while doing a school project when he was 15, has said he didn't intend for it to be seen by his classmates, let alone people across the world. "I want my life back," he said in an email interview with the National post newspaper, a Canadian daily. Claiming that their son has been humiliated, his parents are suing the parents of the teens who put the video on the Web. Some say that case may become a step toward setting privacy standards on the Internet. [/Quote] Fascinating story... In other news, idiotic electrical engineers installing new lightposts in a mall parking lot cut wire, causing a surge of electricity to backfire at the 7,200 watt Transformer, causing it to explode and blow a 30'Hx50W' hole in the side of the JcPenny's department store. Hello people, you are supposed to block off electricity when installing new wires to AVOID that kind of incident. Luckily it was early morning on Thursday and no one was injured.
