Splashing across several of the less-reputable holonet gossip channels came a scandalous report:
JEDI MASTER KRO'ROENE GIVRAH ABANDONS JEDI ORDER OVER PUNS
In a shocking move today, Cerean Jedi Master Kro'Roene Givrah announced his resignation from the Jedi Order today. While no official statement has been made, insider sources say that the Jedi Master stormed out of the Council chambers on Coruscant late last night, shouting, "If my puns aren't allowed, then I'll just leave the Order!!" The Jedi's ultimatum was given as a response to several Jedi finally drawing the line. "He's punning all the time," one Jedi, who asked to remain anonymous told us. "It's like every other sentence out of his mouth. Most of them have to do with plants or trees or flowers, although he said a terrible one the other day about nanites and being Knighted." The Jedi facepalmed as he told our source this.
This seems reflected in most of the Jedi Order. "He never stops," one Jedi told us secretly. "I hear the Council is fed up. He's having a bad influence on the other Jedi. In fact, sometimes it's all I can do not to pun. He's Cere-us about his puns. Oh no! I just did it! You see?"
Meanwhile, other sources say that Master Givrah has been sighted teaching the ways of the pun to his apprentice. Our thoughts and prayers are with her.
