This has got to be one of the smartest and funniest things I've ever seen on the Internet. It is called "The Darth Side: Memoirs of a Monster." I don't know if I'm late to the game, but this blog – which I found while following links I found on sites that linked to me – just kills. Literally.
It's "Darth Vader" writing in – ahem, a blog – about his thoughts and daily happenings. It provides a little emotional backstory that is, well, a bit more unexpectedly touching and thoughtful than I had prepared for. A cool little creative writing project that's hard to stop reading. Set aside about 30 mins of casual reading and giggling if you're at work trying to act like you're working hard but hardly working.
I suggest reading in chronological order, as opposed to the original blog, which is in normal blog posting order, meaning most recent post first. You don't want to spoil the story. Take the chronological option in HTML mode, or download the PDF for offline viewing.
But don't do it if you want to get the lights off and asleep anywhere within a few minutes of your bedtime.
The pull of the Dark Side is powerful.
You will fail.
*HISS*
