Are You or Someone You Know Inolved in Dangerous Pod Racing?

See George Lucas? See what you've done to us? We can't shake you from our lives!

According to the authors [of a study arguing that Anakin Skywalker has borderline personality disorder], who reported their findings at the American Psychiatric Association's annual meeting in San Diego, Skywalker meets the criteria for the condition: He has difficulty controlling anger, stress-related breaks with reality (after women in his life die or leave), impulsivity (dangerous pod racing), obsession with abandonment (those women again) and a "pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by alternating between extremes of ideation and devaluation" (hello, Obi-Wan).

The diagnosis came to Bui, a Star Wars fan, as he watched the series. "I thought to myself, 'That guy is crazy.' But he's not crazy. He's borderline."
Everybody's in therapy, yeah? I look forward to the Woody Allen-directed sequel/prequel/spinoff that features Vader at the shrink's. Lucas is supposed to be developing a Star Wars TV show, right? Well, maybe he can do it Sopranos-style, and have "Annie" spill his feelings in weekly therapy sessions. It worked for gangsters, why not for Sith Lords?
