maaaaaybe

Actually I can't think of anyone else that keeps a shitlist in their sig. I seem to remember that being relatively common when I joined, but I guess it fell out of favor at some point.

I think Dave McWhatsit does this as well. ....those two might even be the same person for all I know.

and I read that first line of your post in this voice. :hmm:

I think that guy sounds more like Randy Savage than I could ever hope to accomplish.

Ohhh, that was a haiku? Don't worry brian, we all still love you, even if the last line of your haiku only had three syllables.

<Rant Alert>

People who think they've written a haiku but can't even get the 5/7/5 format right should be hacked into 17 "syllables" by a posse of enraged samurais. :colbert:

Not to mention that anyone who shoves 3 "haikus" into one "pome" doesn't even begin to understand, let alone follow, the spare and disciplined artistic sensibility that is haiku.

Rather, they are following the yahoo 'Murican tradition of "If some is good, then unthinking wretched excess must be better," as epitomized by the idiot cry of "MOAR SUGAR!" or "EXTRA CHEESE ON EVERYTHING!"

Need an example, class? 1950's American automobiles, where the idea was, "Good start, Gunderson. Now let's tack on GIANT, non-functional fins and tons of extra chrome. Don't forget the chrome spinner hubcaps and extra wide whitewalls!"

Not getting the point? Well, then, here's a Zen koan for you:

"How many haikus are there in a three haiku poem?"

"None, cowboy, none. Now, top off my saki and bring me my bento box on your knees, &#34115;&#20154;."

<End Rant Alert>

;) :awe: ;)

i didn't get the 5 7 5 format wrong, unless you refer to A-T-O-T as "a tot", in which case you are Doing It Wrong.

ANDDDD

these were 4 separate haikus (not 3). i did not separate them, this was left as an exercise to the reader.

While a few smiled most of the women seemed like a perv was trying to ruin their concert experience and to be honest I would have found most just fine thank you to describe them as "smoking hot" is not accurate. I live 1.5 miles from the beach (Daytona) but I would not want to think uncle pervy is around so I wouldn't go to the beach just to take pics of the women there.

The truly hip kids all say "a tot" and wear fedoras, but ironically. Try to keep up. :p

So you are saying there isn't a flip cup team called the Anandtech Tots? Their mascot would be crispy and hot.
