Mum's homemade cookies, 15 minutes into the family party / Not even the younglings survived
A Master Skywalker, There Are Too Many of Them (Younglings) post.
You ask your big brother to hold your last chip "for one second" while you tie your shoe. He agrees. You never see the chip again, and he never explains. You go in and ask for "just a trim, really, barely anything, I'm growing it out". The hairdresser nods kindly, says "of course", and picks up the clippers. Off on holiday, you leave your plants with the friend who "loves plants". You come back to three sticks and a note that says "sorry x". You ask the IT man to just have a quick look at why it's slow. He says "let's start fresh". All your files start fresh too. **Why it caught on:** it's the Jedi Temple scene in Revenge of the Sith (2005): a youngling in the Council chamber asks "Master Skywalker, there are too many of them, what are we going to do?", Anakin ignites his lightsaber, and the film cuts away. The fans didn't. Obi-Wan's "not even the younglings survived" turned it into a dark running joke for anyone trusting exactly the wrong person.
