AK feels much nicer to use, NGL.

I mean, even if the laborers own the means of production, they still have to labor. So finding a "job" you love would still be a viable goal. Or am I missing something obvious here?

I spent most of my money on booze, fdm printing, and video games. The rest of it I wasted.

Lead for "ingredient X" is too spot on, made me chuckle.

My gut feeling is the previous therapist(s) said something along the lines of "It's not you, it's me."

To your first point, the droids in question do seem to follow the "easy designations" as you put it. In fact, they are often referred to in the film by them. Examples: Luke often refers to R2-D2 as just R2. And C-3PO as 3PO.

I still don't buy into the notion that these were unique "names" at all and not "model numbers" though, but thanks for the discussion.

If C-3PO is a 3PO series protocol droid, I would find it hard to believe that only 26 (36)? were ever made and each one had a unique name. R2 is an R2 series astromech droid. I would plead a similar case there as well. Especially given the probable number of astromechs built/needed.

So yes. Yes is what I am reading. The designations are more like generic "make/model" numbers and not unique "serial" numbers or names. Thanks for the reply!

I am not sure each droid has a unique name. Are the designations basically not a model number? I.e. there are many c-3po and r2-d2 running around.
