Science fiction holds no fascination for me, and when I see that the new Star Wars film is called “Revenge Of The Sith”, I'm propelled into new levels of ambivalence. “Sith”? How is it that other-worldly races with one syllable names always manage to somehow avoid having the same name as an already-existing word in the English language? With the amount of appalling prose out there bathering on about the vanquishing of various alien forces, you would have thought that authors would have been forced to name their books “The Destiny Of The Pin” or “The Fall Of The Grill”.

Or “The City Of The Lick” or “The Fountains Of Slob”.

But Sith? That's just ridiculous.
