First Update

OOC: Thanks for clicking on the link. This blog is designed to archive all the old gags from my Twitter account (@BenKenobisGhost / http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost ). This isn't going to have every tweet I've ever posted, just a selection of the one line jokes with links to the original tweet so that it's easy to retweet your favourites. If you like a joke, please do retweet it. It makes me happy.

I'll update the blog every friday before FF with a list of the new jokes that people have liked for that week.

The jokes are arranged into the following categories to make it easier to find ones you like:

1) Star Wars Gags (basic, in character jokes about Star Wars)
2) Out of Character Gags (jokes told from outside the perspective of Ben Kenobi's Ghost, usually still about Star Wars but about the making of the movies or the production team/special editions/actors etc)
3) Non Star Wars and Crossover Gags (jokes about other franchises or characters, or jokes where Star Wars characters interact with another franchise or character)
4) Photos and Links (tweets which are just a link to a video or a photo, normally to do with Star Wars and normally also a joke)
5) Hashtag Gags (jokes which are based off trending hashtags of the moment such as #dontcountonit or #wordsthatleadtosex. Mostly Star Wars related but the odd one or two aren't)
6) Coffee Related (tweets about coffee. I don't know why this became a running gag, but it did)

And now, the first installment (this one will be longer than later blogs as it's catching up the first few weeks of my account).

1) Star Wars Gags
For over 1000 generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times, before Bieber

#jointhelightside and you can spend eternity as your weakened older self rather than being revitalised and youthful like...wait a second!

Sith must kill their masters to progress. Yet they continue to take apprentices #SithStupidity
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19451887699

Ever noticed that Force Ghosts look just like a hologram? That's right, Jedi don't die, we just call long distance #jointhelightside
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19457350669

#jointhelightside where we give ALL our soldiers basic marksmanship training. You'll receive no such promise from the Empire
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19497668227

I can't believe how young and stupid I once was. "Only a Sith deals in absolutes" is an absolute #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19597297544

So much advanced technology but they never thought of making ground attack vehicles with wheels. #StupidEmpire #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19688654434

I tweet from an iPhone of course. It's all I'll use. In fact I don't seem to recall ever owning any droids #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19691281390

Many truths depend greatly on our point of view. For instance, @justinbieber is a good singer #FromACertainPointOfView
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19736271070

As a young man I could jump 20 feet. In my later years you'd be lucky to get a forward flip out of me. Damn arthritis
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19899646632

The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded but sometimes it's just easier to cut a guys arm off #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19905589874

I hit @Angry_Jar_Jar because he kept grabbing food from the table with his tongue. I told him to use the forks!
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19941729458

Owen was worried Luke might turn out like his father. But no, instead he blew up a planet sized.... Oh wait #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19989250805

So @LordPalpatine, the circle is now complete. When I met you I was but a learner, now I am the Phantom Menace #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/19990627983

Last night I tried to go to a fancy bar but wasn't let in. I can't believe they needed to see my identification #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20066651170

Sith are more likely to deal in absolutes but I wouldn't want to generalise. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20137322384

The Sandpeople startle easily... Seriously it's hilarious! Try creeping up behind them with a trumpet. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20166758584

I'll admit, the Jedi were blind to the machinations of the Dark Side. But stormtroopers are just plain blind. #jointhelightside
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20219341370

Did you know Anakin used to write love poetry? It was awful. I hope that's not how he actually talks to women. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20254217201

Kamino's tourist trade is built on the idea of telling everyone who visits "Well the weather was lovely LAST week". Much like Cornwall
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20258317386

At the Jedi academy, Lightsaber courses come in three parts: 1) Blocking 2) Flynning 3) Chopping off limbs #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20309742993

I've become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. Blue and sparkly! OoooOooo! Be afraid! #starwars

Somedays you're just not in the mood for a damn fool idealistic crusade. Somedays you'd rather have a sandwich. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20376481057

We are now landing on Kamino. The weather outside is rainy, with a chance of flying whales. #starwars

I never noticed that Windu sounds like window and he died by falling out a window. I guess that's #irony. #starwars

Pray you never meet @Senile_Yoda's parents. Kermit's lovely but Miss Piggy is a bitch. #starwars #themuppets

It may look like Luke blew up the Death Star but actually the shot came from the Millennium Falcon #hanshotfirst #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20660127111

"You're a droid" "Am not!" "Are too!" "Am not!" "R2!!" #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20713969018

Run Luke, Run!... Haha! He's actually running! Run Luke, Run!.. Hah! He's so gullible! #ilaugheverytime #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20718316006

"bleeble bloop bleep bleep whooaaaooow" "oh R4, you have such a dirty sense of humour!" #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20764037048

"Ben" Kenobi and Luke Skywalker. Living on Tatooine. Yeah, don't worry. Vader won't find us here. Not with THIS cunning disguise. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20819118763

I don't understand why the Death Star needs @DeathStarPR. It's such a nice place. I'd happily spend the rest of my life there. #ohwait
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20826287973

6 millions forms of communication and not allowed to impersonate a deity. Anakin? What did you build him for? #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20878904805

Let's be rational. If Greedo had shot first he wouldn't have missed at that range. He's not a stormtrooper! #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20894896605

I once stopped in to the Millennium Falcon to tell Solo that Leia loved him. I hope she wasn't planning to surprise him with that. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20913457089

As I boasted that "I have the high ground" I was just glad I never told Anakin about Darth Maul. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20967923968

Anakin was becoming too dangerous. I needed to find some way to disarm him. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20982658185

I felt a great disturbance in the Force. As if #4millionbeliebers cried out in squee and wouldn't be silenced #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20990974599

To be fair, it does look a lot like a moon. In fact it doesn't look like a star at all. It's a silly name. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/21009281496

Do you know what I hate? Jedi who use the Force to levitate fruit. Argh! I'm grumpy just thinking about it! #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/21023628942

"Lost a planet, Master Obi-Wan has. How embarrassing". You know, you're a dick sometimes Yoda. #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/21025901089

2) Out of Character gags
When Anakin became Darth Vader he stopped being Canadian. I guess Canadians aren't evil enough. But why did he become Mufasa? #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20708547191

There were loads of women in #starwars! Leia, Mon Mothma... um... That woman who said "stand by ion control"...
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20718094570

Dear George, 20 years from now, please remake #starwars 4,5&6 using the 1,2&3 cast. Your fans want this. Signed, your imagination
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20793789742

If Lucas gets another chance to edit #starwars we'll end up with a version where Alderaan shot first
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20838411572

What does #starwars have that #startrek doesn't? That's right. Surge protectors.
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20905945433


3) Non-Star Wars and Crossover gags
Anakin! You were the Chosen One! Oh, Neo, Buffy, hello... Well this is awkward #starwars #btvs #matrix
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20020510447

I prefer @DarthVader to @Lord_Voldemort7. Our villain may have no limbs but at least he has a nose #starwars #harrypotter
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20073132417

Sam Wheat got talking to Han Solo. The conversation was mostly "Ditto", "I know!" #ghostparty
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20084271916

I don't know why Henry VIII is laughing at Count Dooku. Did I miss something? Was I unconscious? #ghostparty
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20084884279

A guy just showed up claiming to be the Ghost Writer. I'm not sure it's really him... #ghostparty
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20085385626

Cordelia just showed up to the #ghostparty but she's brought a date. The Phantom Dennis. I really don't like that guy
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20091171169

That's no moon, it's a plutoid. Oh wait, it's Pluto. So planet then. Pluto = planet. It's the will of the Force #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20184744962

Correct me if I'm wrong but instead of "AVADA KEDAVRA!" isn't the Sith version just "UNLIMATED POWAH!"? #starwars
http://twitter.com/BenKenobisGhost/status/20377028315

Was supposed to be with Oma Desala tonight but her friend Daniel is visiting and apparently he never stays long #stargate
