`Twas Freepthon, and the VanityPosts
Were sidebarred into the chattyroom pot.
The servers churnt, the n00bs were toast,
And the Admins KittyZot.
"Beware the HumbleGumby, my son!
The text that rages, the phrases that bit!
Beware the albaby beeber of stune,
And the sleaxy Lazamataz hit."
He took his 'board and mouse in hand
Long time the irrascid foe he sought,
So rested he by the BreakinBar,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in moddish thought he read,
The HumbleGumby, with words of flame,
Came churling through the blarzly thread,
And yarbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The posty blasts went flamy-smack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went triumphing back.
"And, has thou slain the HumbleGumby??
Come to my arms, my troobish noll!
O Freeptious day! JimRob! JohnRob!'
He chortled in his joy.
`Twas Freepthon, and the VanityPosts
Were sidebarred into the chattyroom pot.
The servers churnt, the n00bs were toast,
And the Admins KittyZot.

Thanks.
I’m kind of glad I missed it then. I have enough negativity to deal with as it is.

I did a search and found the threads. Kinda glad I missed it now. What in the world happened to generate all of these humblegunner threads? Apparently I missed all of the "excitement".
All I found doing a search was humblegunner complaining about blogpimps on FR. Is that what this hoopla is all about?

As near as I can figure out, there were pitchers of beer and pool cues involved, and then when the cops came everyone swore that nothing had happened. And bought beers for one another the next night and it was all back to normal.
At least, I hope that's how it turned out.
Excellent job, by the way, Laz.

There came a time to hoist a flag
White or red or
Dont Tread on Me
All that remained was
Who would it be
.
HG, JimRob, or Thee?
Thanks, Laz! That was truly inspired. An inside the park home run! Charles Lutwidge Dodgson would be proud.
