YSaC, Vol. 1533: Don’t use the light saber.

2013 June 12

And sometimes, it just gets weird.

Jedi Needed To Induce Labor


I am nearing towards my due date and I am miserable. My child is about 9 lbs now and I still have 2 weeks to go.

I was hoping that tonight’s full moon will do the trick, but this child is as snug as a bug in my uterus.

I’m looking for someone who possesses Jedi powers to use their mind tricks on my child to convince him to come early. The sooner the better.

If you are a master in the way’s of the Jedi please help me deliver this child! Many thanks and may the force be with you!

… I got nothin’.

Thanks, Heff!

    Sometimes, we are grateful there were no photos with the ad. This is one of those times.

      That’s pretty much the mantra for everything pregnancy-related, isn’t it?

    Feel sorry for this child, for its mother will be using Jedi mind tricks for parenting skills.

    I know of a great way to induce labour using Jedi powers. All I need is my trusty “lightsabre”.

    Everyone knows one tried and true method to bring on labor does involve the use of a light saber. Like grandma always said, do it the old fashioned way!

    I’ll be over in the corner if anyone needs me.

    True Story*…

    Baby #4 was born after a night at the Mos Eisley, drinking Colt 45s with Han, Chewie, and Guido (poor Guido…never saw it coming).

    I suggest, babymama, you try it.

    Or, you could..you know wait until the appropriate time, like the other 99.9%** of the women in the world do.

    *may not be ‘entirely’ true
    **an utterly bogus statistic, made up on the spot

          Bridgete weighed 8 lbs. 15 oz. She was late too. 10 days late. Stubborn from the beginning.

          I don’t remember how much I weighed, but I was 22″ long. My mother was under 5′ tall. I paralized her when I was born. She got better. I think that was my first moving violation.
          She told me I kicked her alot too. Left bruises. But in my defense, there wasn’t much room in there.
          I also went flying that day, but my mother wouldn’t go with me. She was afraid to fly.

          This is all true.

        Two words for you: Lightsaber C-section.

          The C-section is where you find the comics, right before the obituaries.
          Thus the saying- “A funny thing happened on the way to the Mortuary…”

          Heh, heh, Life, it’s what’s for breakfast.

          Sometimes what’s in should stay in.

          Note: Four stanza’s beginning with “I.” Coincidence? I think not.

    Jedi Needed To Induce Labor

    I am nearing towards my due date and I am miserable. My child is about 9 lbs now and I still have 2 weeks to go.

    There are laws against child labor. There are no laws concerning infants and labor. Go figure. Maybe congress needs to pass more laws.

    Totally off-topic. Got a work email a short time ago. The stated purpose was to clarify the confusion caused by the previous clarification. No, really. That’s probably not the end of it. Stay tuned!

      Well, Windy, did it clarify the confusion? Or did the latest clarification create more confusion than the previous clarification which purported to clarify confusion previously created? So which came first, the confusion or the clarification?……(I think my head hurts) This is why I try not to open work e-mail. I just browse YSaC.

    We always just took the impatient mother-to-be down a bumpy road in a truck with no suspension. Works every time.

    I had no idea that was Jedi stuff!

      I knew of an expectant mother who got the privilege of being in the co-pilot’s seat of a fighter with bad hydraulics that was taxied back and forth on the airfield to help induce labor – very unofficial Air Force Reserve method perk. LOL
