If you have ever played the playstation game "Jedi Power Battles", you know how completely inept the AI controlled ally is. He would find ways to kill himself that did not even require the help of the bad guys, such as frying himself or leaping to his doom. We dubbed this character Skippy the Wonder Jedi to commemorate his complete uselessness.

I used to be absolutely terrible at these games. I mean really, really bad. After seeing myself at the bottom of the rank chart, it just seemed to fit. It has stuck to this day.
