G.R.E. VOCAB WORDS WITH A STAR WARS THEME

At the risk of winning awards for nerdiness...

So, I decided to take a big list of G.R.E. vocabulary words that I'm supposed to be learning, and put them into sentences related to Star Wars. The result of this exercise is that I realize I would much rather be tested on my Star Wars knowledge than just about anything else. Alright, time to get educated.

G.R.E. words... we don't need their scum...
