Enlighten me; what's the point

But it is weird, not
to mention impractical.
And hard to maintain.

A little late, but welcome aboard the sad wagon.  The only wagon people actively try to fall off of.

Jesus Christ! Get set!
when I start, I can't stop it!
It's like having sex!

posting a link here
would perhaps illustrate this
HN was fun then...

I have work to do
Yet I'm still posting Haiku
I must do one more

question on "haiku"
it's one syllabel or two?
I can't remember

Cat, please forgive me,
when you read about gravy
in the HN link

It's not my fault dear,
I could not resist your charm
(And did not want to...)  :-D

To you all I say
farewell, I have to go work
I'll be back in 5!

My plan was simple
I was to come back and post
five minutes later

Little did I know
I would spend my time working!
Actually working!

It looks like today
will turn out to be busy
keep this things going!

In the mean time, here:
RPG motivators

Bitches

They turned the thread into a Haiku thread.
I don't care for Haikus
Bitches
I prefer the Armando.

Originally posted by ivan on some other board:


An Armando consists of a title and 4 lines. There is no specific metre, but, when read, the verse should flow smoothly with a conversational cadence.

The first two lines are the setup.

The third line is the main point, or punch line. The fourth line is a wrap-up, often explanatory sentence. Apart from the third line, which should consist of as few words as possible, the lines should be of similar length.

The title is always the third line.

Of course it was made up.  It came from the mind of DM, and grew.
