A snap bracelet. And not just a snap bracelet but a Darth Maul snap bracelet.
I'm not sure where along the line I acquired this gem, but I sure as hell know why I kept it. It no longer snaps and is awkwardly small, so I think the time has come to send this guy on to the big toy box in the sky.
I know for a long time when the prequels were out, Star Wars paraphernalia was getting handed out left and right from fast food chains. If there's anything I love as much as I love Star Wars, it's fast food. I might just be a fourteen year old boy.
I had this bracelet in one hand and two projector slides with scenes from the original trilogy in the other hand and told myself I had to make a decision because there isn't room in the grown up life I'm building for both. I think the decision is clear. Darth Maul isn't as cool as Lando Calrissian, and even though I don't own a slide projector, having slides from your favorite movie is a lot more acceptable when you're a grown up than having a snap bracelet from your favorite movie is.
May the force be with you at the dump, Darth Maul. Even though you pissed all over it when you became a Sith.
