*bumped for Gol, Craig, PP, Hugh and any other IT sort*

 

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,

And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,

And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,

Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report!

 

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,

And the double-clicking icons put your window in the trash,

And your data is corrupted 'cause the index doesn't hash,

Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash!

 

If the label on your cable on the gable at your house,

Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse,

But your packets want to tunnel to another protocol,

That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.

And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss,

So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse,

Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang,

'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!

 

When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk,

And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary RISC,

Then you have to flash your memory

and you'll want to RAM your ROM,

Quickly turn off your computer and be sure to tell your mom!

 

 

 

 

(I wish I came up with this.)

Ive no idea where you find your words

Not day to day language that Ive ever heard

Maybe its me and maybe Im thick

But the thing you say to make you sound slick

 

The trick is to type it as you go

The words themselves should just flow

No thesaurus or dictionary near

Just muttering away so its good to the ear

It's true that it should flow

but I like to use words I know

it depends on how I'm feeling

be it sober or sesquipedalian

 

I know, I know I'm just showing off

and there are those who'll mock and scoff

but it's simply polite and harmless fun

unlike the crap 'tween vic and jon

 

:D

For Tom:

 

Winter gale

 

By Bob Wilson, Gateshead

 

Aa lucked oot iv the winda

The rain wis sheetin doon

The wind wis bla'in like a gale

Aa thowt it's ganna happen soon

Next mornin oot the winda

It wis chaos for me pal

Not ownly had John's fence gone

Burr aalso his little waal

He went ind taaked ti Vincent

A retired brickie by trade

They talked jist forra little while

Ind am sure the deal wis made

Up the lane it made nee sense

Rob ind Julie they had nee fence

Next mornin Vince wis there

His trowel in his hand

My god yi shudda seen it

Warra brickie it wis grand

But as the wind's still bla'in

We will hev ti wait a while

Ti watch John repair his fence

Burra bet he does it with style.

 

:D

A good example of what I mean

But its not the worst there's ever been

The yoda poems are such a crime

With clumsy backward phrasings to fit a rhyme

They all sound wrong, its just not right

Its illiterate sods who just sound shite

If yoda you want then yodo you'll get

I'll throw it together yes I will I bet

Small and green, look do I

I'll sit at home watching Jedi

Odd is this writing style

Time I need, maybe a while...

Vic is the Robot master

it's got some sensors and a laser blaster

With stuttering step and awkward gait

His victory's assured, it's simply fate

 

His automatic buddy

Will never taste defeat

It's querky jerky motions

will have you off your feet

 

He is the king of gadgets

with all their special effects

One thing springs to mind though..

 

"Shame he'll never have sex..."

Internet bullying's such a terrible thing

So to one person's life some joy we should bring.

So gather your coppers and other loose change

Into an envelope and I'll then arrange

To buy Vic some Lego, some robot-arm springs

Some KY Jelly and various things

And then I will leave it addressed to Invicta

At the University, when he's at a lecture.

It'll be such a treat for the delusional spastic

To receive a nice gift from his friends at Toontastic,

And hailed and hearty with spirits renewed

He'll hurry on home and quickly get nude

And lubricate Lego bricks, program some code

So he can indulge in Robot Sex overload.

 

:lol:
