The science fiction movie Star Wars has become a huge cult phenomenon since its release in 1977. This movie by George Lucas would go on to become the first in a series of six films, plus it would have a number of television, comic, novel, and video game spin-offs. There are a lot of lines of dialogue, characters, and images from Star Wars that have become known by just about everyone, even those who never saw the movies. One of these is the Force, a powerful type of magic that has a light and a dark side. The bad characters use the dark side, and at one point, Darth Vader asks Luke, the hero, to come to the dark side. This patch makes the dark side sound a bit more tempting: the Come To The Dark Side We Got Milk And Cookies Patch offers tasty treats if you join the evil empire.
This is one of many funny patches found on The Cheap Place, but it's one of the only ones based on a movie. Almost everyone who reads it will know immediately what movie it's referencing. Most will know more than that, especially those Star Wars fans who can quote every line of dialogue from the movies.
You don't have to be a Star Wars fan to wear this patch. The idea of the dark side has now reached the point that it's often used to describe any villainous group. There's no image with this text, unfortunately, but the patch is quite humorous, anyway. It measures four by 1.5 inches and can be either sewn or ironed on to your clothing.
