"If those Sithspit keep buzzing over the place, I'll lose all of my business!"
―8D-J8[1]

"Sithspit" was a phrase used to express a displeasure or anger at something or someone. Sometime during 34 ABY,[2] the smelter droid 8D-J8 lashed out, calling them "sithspit" when he noticed a First Order shuttle above his business, exclaiming that the First Order will cause him to go out of business.[1] It could also be used to express that something was untrue, such as "What a load of Sith spit", said by Gora.[3] The variant sithspitting was used as a derogatory modifier.[4]

Behind the scenes[]

"Sithspit" first appeared in Galaxy's Edge 1 a comic written by Ethan Sacks and illustrated by Will Sliney. The comic was released on April 24, 2019.[5] "Sithspit" is also mentioned many times in Star Wars Legends, being mentioned in Side Trip, Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor plus many more.[6][7]

  1. 1.0 1.1 Galaxy's Edge 1
  2. Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire begins concurrent with the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, then jumps four months ahead to the Resistance establishing its presence on Batuu, and concludes with an epilogue set several weeks later, when the First Order occupies the planet and the Battle of Batuu begins. As Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of The Force Awakens and the Battle of Batuu to 34 ABY, everything within Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and any related tie-in media depicting the Battle of Batuu, or set between The Force Awakens and the battle, must also occur in 34 ABY.
