The Way it Wuz: 8/23-8-26
Date: 08/27/1999
From: SL4ever
As mentioned a few days ago, Blinker and I are reviving the late, lamented TWIW feature. We'll be pulling alternate weeks from now on. The series can be found each Friday, time of day approximately whenever he and I feel like posting it.
For those who don't remember the original run, TWIW takes a satirical look at the past week's board events by summing them up with some really, really awful poetry. When Blinker does it, it's more for the 'shiny, happy, cherries 'n' love community of friends' kinda poster than the 'superintelligent, caustically witty, but biggest thrill is finding something new to hate' kinda poster. Since I, unlike Blinker, am an :-# you never know what you’re gonna get or who it is for. :-)
This is NOT my first time, so you may go as hard on me as you wish. :-D But, first a joke to sum up how I feel about flaming.
Masochist: “Hurt me. Please.”
Sadist (grinning): “No.”
NOTE: The 'post of the day' is just the thread that got the most replies; it in no way denotes the importance or quality of the content.
