Haiku
Re: Haiku
What project, pray tell?
I'd like to flail my arms, too!
Just need a reason.

"Flat beer or a lumpy mattress. Take your pick."
"I'd prefer a flat mattress."
"Hmm.. Well, it could be done.. If I take the lumps out of the mattress, and put them in the beer, you'd have a flat mattress and a lumpy beer!"

Re: Haiku
I don't really care.
I learned this form as "Haiku".
So shut your mouth, sir.

Re: Haiku
Guys, I'm confused now.
What the hell is going on?
HOW DO I SHOT WEB.
This gets easier
Each time I write a haiku.
Last lines are tough, still.
Iron Chef: Japan.
It's pretty rad, don' cha know.
Itadakimasu!
I know that last one doesn't technically work. But with the way most natural speakers say it, the U on the end might as well not even exist.
Edit: I've been informed that it's a trait common to male speakers. So, if you think I'm a woman, the haiku won't work. If you think I'm a man, it works.

Re: Haiku
Haiku, Senryū
Neither based on syllables
Count on or mora
Haiku start with five
Seven in the second line
Finish with five more
Senryū not strict
Up to seventeen, it's true
But could be less
English has no on
So use best equivalent
Syllables are fine

Re: Haiku
It's been a while, huh?
Time for some necromancy!
ARISE, FAITHFUL THREAD.
EDIT: It didn't work.
My powers have failed me 'gain.
Oh; I'm not a mage.

Why would you necro?

Re: Haiku
That may be so, but
it doesn't mean you should take
advantage of it.
Also, a necro
of less than one month isn't
terribly bad, right?

How was it for you?

Re: Haiku
I resurrect thee!
Awake thou that sleepest, and
Arise from the dead!
Two haiku below -
A common theme they share, can
You guess what they are?
Attir'd all in red
Get the comfy chair! No one
Expects the - Oh, bug-
Curtailing Walpole.
Camembert? A bit runny.
Oh, the cat's got it!
If thou, like me, a
Necromancer would be, then
reply in haiku
The answer to this
riddle, in five, seven, five.
A hint? Holy Grail.
Extra Points you gain
if the individual
pieces you can name.
What is the reward?
Perhaps a CheckPoint? Someone
else has to make it.

Re: Haiku
This haiku is bad.
It contains nothing of worth.
You should not read it.
Despite my advice
You read that one, didn't you?
Don't read this one though.
Now look what you've done.
Can't you follow instructions?
I'm ending this now.

Re: Haiku

I recognize your Haikus
They're from the Pythons
The first is simply
The Spanish Inquisition
And then the Cheese Shop
So what's my reward?
I finished your objectives...
Maybe some ponies?

Thats crazy because I had a buffalo chicken pizza for dinner and I've never heard of it before my job. Even there, its normal hot wing sauce unless you ask for otherwise.
