One of my favorite summer pastimes is getting a decadent ice cream cone on a hot night.
My least favorite summer pastime is putting on swimwear.

(Proving Hallmark really does have a card for everything.)
It's a constant battle to balance my love of ice cream with the desire not to increase the size of my, er, ruffle.
Fortunately, these cakes seem destined to put me off ice cream for good:

I think the cherry really makes a difference. Don't you?
C'mon, bakers, an ice cream cone ought to be pretty easy. I mean, we all know what one looks like, right?

I stand corrected.

Nooo...

Ok, now you're just messing with us, aren't you.

EW. Someone call for cleanup on aisle 3!
And the Orkin man.

Tell ya what, bakers:
Why don't you start with an actual ice cream cone, and then work around that? You can do that, right?

Actually, I was hoping for something PRE-digested.

Let's call it the "Beeblebrox".

Yikes, is there any actual cake in this thing?
(Great. Now I've gone off frosting, too. Ick.)
Come on, bakers! You can do this! Big finish!

Sooo, how are your hamburger cakes these days?

We've talked about cliffhangers a bit, but honestly it's not necessarily a great technique to end a session on such a dramatic note. While it may keep players on the edge of their seats in anticipation of the next session, it can also be a bit tiring and clichéd.
It's often better to end a session in a period of down-time, in between significant encounters or events. This gives players a bit of breathing space, and the pause in play can correspond to time passing in-game. When you reassemble a week or a month later to pick up the game, having a relatively eventless week or month pass in-game can feel more natural than picking up at the exact second that you stopped last time. Some games apply this rule rigorously, to enforce the passage of time in the game, lest it slip into Webcomic Time.

Commentary by memnarch (who has not seen the movie)
Okay, never mind on the "Not completely destroyed"; that's not a survivable crash. Gotta hope that's just ship number two without Chewie now. It's also curious that Ben hasn't said anything yet. Maybe that's just the comic format not lending itself to him reacting as well (like Corey), but maybe he knows something the others don't.
And the GM ending the night there? With the reaction shots? This feels like Alderaan Naboo blowing up back in Episode IV. This scene probably didn't have the same effect for people watching the movie though.
