Saying I lost my temper is rich when I was responding to someone practically telling me to get "fucked"
I guess I don't see that as polite behavior. I'm funny like that. I'm sure I'll get over it.

This is so sad.

I was rather enjoying this thread, but now it is semi-ruined..

If you guys aren't going to post more secret smart people codes, then I think you're in the wrong thread.

Go to www.flamewars.com to continue your battle please.

Sorry to interupt, I will just go back to lurking again now.

Hear, hear, Nash!

I'm not one for writing humor, but I'm a sure good reader (and a closet laugher)...

Now get on with it,

Sherri

And now back to our featured program:

1 sentence of polite compliments followed by 10 sentences on what could be "brushed up a bit" = please get the hint that you're poem really stunk and it's beyond redemption, so please don’t post a revision…PLEASE!

What have you been reading lately = Do you know how to read?

IMHO= I am God and you suck.

Cheers!,
Fr. RP

What about instead:

That's a prizewinner = That is, the booby-prize.

With the thought of getting back to the lightheartedness of the thread, these are my contributions:


1. Good luck in your revisions = Lord knows you'll need it to straighten out this mess of a poem.

2. This is what I consider "real" poetry = as oppose to the "Hallmark" crap you just posted.

3. I really don't like this type of poem but... = Heck, I'll crit this because you just reconfirmed what I hate about this type of poetry.

3. Are you trying to do an end rhyme? = Hey, I know you're trying to do an end rhyme and you failed miserable but I just want to rub your nose in the mud about it.

************************************************** *********

1. The moment I posted the poem, I knew it was a mistake = My mind was out to lunch when I did this and it didn't come back in time to stop me from posting.

2. This one goes back in the drawer = This one goes down the toilet.

ROFLMAO = I almost allowed my perpetually dower countenance to smirk but it came out as a grimace and hurt.

I didn’t read the other comments = all of them where written by a bunch of grade school hacks and my opinion is the only one that matters…morons.

http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/ubbhtml/wink.gif = I just ripped on you pretty hard and now I am trying to soften it with this stupid icon

A bunch of stars below the author’s name = quake in my presence worm!

http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/ubbhtml/wink.gif = I just ripped on you with an ad hom, but since I used an icon after the slam, I am automatically granted riplomatic impunity.

A challenging read, but
I didn't finish it, but

Though I applaud the experimentation,
Though I have never visited your home planet,

I'm puzzled by a few of your line breaks.
I'm certain a few of your meds aren't working.

I confess I had to look up "contumacious."
I didn't look up "contumacious," and you can't make me, Big Word Jerk.

The disparate images fail to coalesce--in short, the whole is less than the sum of the parts.
Sweet Jesus--seven invisible unicorns charging into a bowling alley during a party thrown by stuttering lefthanded Scientologists is supposed to convey your take on capitalism? What is wrong with you?

I've done a quick edit = your poem's mine now, boy
