Woo I hit a nerve with you or something. Where did I display poor language skillz? I'm sorry to tell you that posting on an internet forum is not the top priority of my life, yes I forgot, I didn't think it was all that important but fear not, I've whipped out a song for you to criticize just now! This took me over an hour to do so I hope you appreciate it. The lyrics are hard to understand so I'll transcribe them and post them in a second, I kind of made them up as I sang and resang the first part and didn't write them down. Sen. Robert "Dave Seville" Byrd and the Senators sing "The Confirmation Song" sung to the tune of The Chipmunks' classic "The Christmas Song".

From No. 23: You put something up there in public you better expect it to get critiqued.
============================================

I appreciate the irony of someone criticizing something, letting the target and forum know that something appearing in the public arena will be criticized, and then using the English language so poorly that the author opens himself up to such a critique. Perhaps you do not appreciate the irony.

You are correct that I cannot understand the lyrics. From what I heard, I have a suspicion that the lyrics are not going to scan.
