a note to consider on this your birthday. people are like flowers. some are like the beautiful rose which drives its admirers away with its sharp thorns. others are like the glistening sundew: seductive and deadly with its globs of honeylike substance. and yet others are like daisies. they smell aweful and are swarming with insect life. always remember .... people are like flowers. skeletons on the other hand are more like rocks ...

Jar Jar Binks makes a daily routine of stepping in animal feces, being a worse shot than both a battle droid and a stormtrooper, uttering incoherent but ridiculous babble at the most inopportune moments, and helplessly giving up when things start looking grim.
