Poetry Remix0red!

[RLacey]

The worst type of poetry,

or so I'm told

is the stuff that reads

exactly like normal prose,

only laid out stupidly on the page.

Perhaps it would be better

if nobody wrote

anything

like

this

ever again?

Winters night in black

bad poetry from thumbs

must get a life

[Salka]

Tell me what I did, please, for I cannot recall,

Was it something that I said? Or that I never shut up at all?

[Jaero]

I won't masturbate for a week

if Yufster writes a poem about me.

You think you're superhuman?!

[Jaero]

Two weeks?

[Salka]

Jaero hates Tim Schafer

Puppies and Babies too

Nothing seems to ryhme with Schafer

Anyway, Jaero is full of... poo.

Oh and, tell me, Jaero, darling

How do 'me' and 'week' ryhme?

I don't think you're even trying

Quit wasting my goddamn time.

[Salka]

Bran flakes in the morning

So full, feel sick

Now I'm yawning.

Yesterday I asked somebody if they'd ever tasted Horlicks.

They asked if it was 'delicious taffy'.

WTF?

I'm more than half asleep.

My head feels really heavy.

Now I have to walk three miles

To get a bus twelve miles

Into School. Weep.

You can have all kinds of fun with the L33t-5p34K translator and poetry. Here's my favorite one:

[Metalmickey]

Jaws clench, fingers tense.

Verbal pugilists begin to spar.

On thumbs they are,

ever... incensed.

Will Yufster's rantings ever cease,

and on the forums settle peace?

My volley, my poem, pulled back,

now released...

And yet my hands, upon the keys

continue typing unpleasantries.

You are as beast, illiterate at least.

Beneath me, by infinite degrees.

[RLacey]

After

the resounding

success of my last

poem, I decided to write

one of those crazy ones, where

everything is written in such a way

that you create a shape! What fun! For

this

is

just

a

tree in a pot -

what do you

mean, you can't

see it? Stupid twit.

[Erkki]

A translation:

oh lord of darkness

former star of light

and CEO of this world

be thanked for letting

the storm pass me by

and directing the editor's hand

so that it didn't tremble

when it was necessary

to tick the right checkbox

oh lord of darkness

former star of light

and CEO of this world

be thanked for the warm

night that is a rare gift in

the middle of january thus you saved my

life when I got wasted on

wednesday and lay down on my face

and fell asleep in front of my door

indeed it was very cozy to lie there

oh lord of darkness

former star of light

and CEO of this world

you really are kind

there is none other as kind as you

the drama olovernes got the funding

and culca* pays for my

office expenses now -- the PC's leasing

the printer ink phone bill

and broadband

oh lord of darkness

former star of light

and CEO of this world

can there be greater happiness

of course not

and there's no need for it

"I Think"

I Think games are really a huge problem

I Think consoles are too much on my mind

I Think PCs have got a lot to do with why the world sucks

But what can you do?

Like a red rain, beating down on me

Like a Yufster line, which won't let go of my brain

Like Kingzjester's ass, it is in my head

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

I Think game developers are gonna drive us all crazy

And CDs make me feel like a child

I Think point and click will eventually be the downfall of civilization

But what can you do? I said what can you do?

Like a red rain, beating down on me

Like a Yufster line, which won't let go of my brain

Like Kingzjester's ass, it is in my head

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Like a red rain, beating down on me

Like Kingzjester's smile, cruel and cold

Like Yufster's ass, it is in my head

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

Blame it on Idle Thumbs

[RLacey]

I think that poetry is great -

Desperate for praise am I -

Laughing, therefore, at your works,

Enveloping my thoughts with happiness.

Thanks to all of you, who

Happy still, have helped to make

Umbridge here a thing which

Many have renounced, except if Ubi

Break another franchise, or EA

Sell their soul yet more unto the devil.

radical, perhaps, yet one minus one is

0, and remains so for all eternity. So

xenopobia, banished from this site,

0 persons claimed for sinful ways.

reviled remain all those who stay within the

zoo of publishing arrangments, from which we suffer

! I say, and

! again, and

1 more time? Yes,

!

Depravity comes in all shapes and sizes

most of the time it comes wearing disguises

but sometimes depravity comes along unarmed

"I'm depravity your friend, don't be alarmed"

that's when you know you've been too depraved,

and promising to be much better behaved,

back on go those clothes you left on the floor,

Of your daughters bedroom...You leave, close the door.

But depravity keeps a bad ace up its sleeve.

The sickness in side you will never leave.

your daughter will one day have children too.

welcome to the depravity zoo.

[Spaff]

oh ../ it has to be about thumbs...

hmmmmmmm ok.

Late one night in the world wide web

2 children come creeping, carrying bread

Leaving behind them a trail of crumbs

To find their way back to idle thumbs

Adventuring into the filthy truth

These brave but ignorant figures of youth

The perverted horrors of internet law

Will make thse children their dirty whores

These innocent children think theyre perfectly fine

Using Internet Explorer - their only crime

But using google to search for 'games'

Is about to bring them unbelieavable pain

And in the dark we hear a cry!!!

A child is devoured by the evil of GAMESPY!

One child remains... but her life will soon end

In the molesting jaws of IGN!

A lesson for all to be leanred this day

Hide from the shite the world puts on display

To save your life you need more than crumbs

You should never leave the safety of idlethumbs

[Salka]

Jesus Christ, Spaff, that was awesome!

I know a kid that has no... foreskin?

[RLacey]

Come now, Yufster - smuttiness

does you no favours, but does distress

us sensitive Thumb forum types.

Other than that, though, I have no gripes.

[Spaff]

why thank you lords and ladies

[Salka]

And Yufster.

[Spaff]

yes and you too.
