I would also consider trying to tie the character in to the tweet.
In your first example, there wasn't any reason why your character would complain about too many blacksmiths - who would do that? Are there any blacksmiths at all anymore? Certainly aren't in South East London.
BUT - if you could make that line natural to your character, you would take the joke up a level. In my opinion, anyway.
Keep writing
I think "too many blacksmiths" works very well if it's obvious the character is bullshitting...
