Because it.. kind of looks like the death star?

I find your comment very confusing! You don’t understand why people call it the Death Star but as soon as you got the lamp you started calling it the Death Star but you struggle to see the resemblance? Surely you’ve answered your own question…?!

No. This is a case where I am confused by my own behaviour as well! Clearly there is something about it but it's not something I'm conscious about.

I always called it DustStar because God damn does it collect dust.

Because it looks like the Death Star.

The question is why all see the same and not just OP

I think it’s the angular shapes on a globe that triggers that.

Three simple reasons:

- It's spherical

- The pattern of the tiles slightly resembles the pattern on the death star

- When you open it, it looks like it "explodes", like every proper death star eventually does
