Star Wars Acronyms for Parents

A meme featuring a worried-looking teenage boy intently texting on a flip phone. Around him are graphics of Star Wars Clone Wars elements: a Republic Gunship, a Clone Trooper, and two Battle Droids. Below the image, the text asks, "IS YOUR CHILD TEXTING ABOUT THE CLONE WARS?" followed by a list of common texting acronyms reinterpreted into military jargon related to the Clone Wars: STFU (Sighted Trade Federation Units), LOL (Launch Our LAAT's), BRB (Bring Reinforcements for Battle), IDC (Intercepted Droid Communications), BTW (Broke The Walkers), and OMG (Operate My Gunship).

Listen up, simpleton. This meme pokes fun at the idea that parents worry about their kids' slang, but if the kid is based, they're actually using common internet acronyms to communicate *Star Wars* tactical intelligence. For instance, STFU isn't 'Shut The F*** Up,' it means 'Sighted Trade Federation Units.' You probably thought it meant 'Send The Funniest Unicorn,' didn't you?
