You know who
I think would
Make an
Awesome Cowboy?
Lee Marvin. I mean
Come on, could
You imagine it?
Oh! And if he could
Be a singing
Cowboy, then,
Oh man,
That would be
Sweet. The man
Has a great
Singing voice,
I'm sure.
Sigh,
If only it
Were possible
To see something
Like that. I'd pay
My nickle for
Admission...

Beck loses sleep post #48  quote:

I lay awake last night going over and over in my mind all the wondrous and inventive non-poetic rambling that spewed volcano like---- frozen lava----- from the bottomless depths of three of best of the best members in IR.

I won't mention their nomenclature for it might get me a "Pink" rating.

But if I don't sleep tonight..my gun will act tomorow in retribution...and I know it wil be termed "Justifiable Homicide." by one and all.

Another Poem to Keep Becker Up At Night

Does anyone
Watch 'Marshal
Law' or am
I the only one?
The show is
Ridiculously
Funny. There's this
Fat Chinese fellow
Who knows kung-fu
But can't seem
To manage the
Difficult act
Of... well, acting.
Or speaking English
For that matter.
But this isn't
What makes the
Show ridiculous.
The other day
There was this episode
Where Samo Law (The
Fat Chinese
Fellow) is chasing the
Enemy, who are
Fleeing in a Van. So
He jumps on the back
Of the van
And hangs on as
They weave in
And out
Of traffic, and
Around corners... until
He finally climbs his
Way onto the back
Of the truck,
And opens the
Back, where he
Takes out 3 or 4
Guys in there...
Then he climbs
On to the roof,
And the driver
Realizes he's there,
So swings the car
Bback and forth to
Get this crazy Chinese
Fellow off his van. He
Turns corners, and
Drives as fast
As possible, until
He finally breaks
And throws Samo
Law onto the
Foot path... so
The van's there,
Facing Samo... the
Driver tries to ram
Samo, but Samo
Jumps and runs
Along the entire
Length of the truck
And lands on the
Ground behind it...
The van takes off.
That's all very
Well and good, but
Then his "side-kick" (I
Forget his name) suddenly
Appears from behind
A tree and says "Oh,
They got away, did
They?" If I was Samo,
I would be wondering
Why this fellow
Didn't set up a
Trap for these
Criminals, since he
Obviously knew where
The chase would
End. What a jerk.

A Lesson In Political Correctness

gaboman

first off:

I am disappointed
that
you have still not changed your handle
to
gaboperson


however
there are
far
    far
    more important things at stake here
    such as
    the fact
    that

you should not use the term 'Chinese'
but should instead use the term
'Asian-American'
because
not all 'Asian-Americans'
are 'Chinese'
you bigot.

we must not
give in to
stereotypes

but I can't help
but notice
that the mere presence
of an 'Asian-American'
quote:
Get this crazy Chinese
Fellow off his van. He
Turns corners, and
Drives as fast
As possible,

has caused this man to drive poorly.
what is it with 'Asian-Americans'
and poor driving
huh?

Err... Hung Ching-
-Pao is actually Chinese...
But you're right,
I should have
Refered to him
As simply Crazy-
-potentially-ethnic-dude.
How insensitive of me.
Though, honestly, if I
Were an Asian dude
Simply visiting
America for a short
Time and someone
Called me Asian-American
I would probably kick
Their ass. For no
Other reason than
I would definitely
Know Kung-Fu...
Being Asian and all.

Lawless said this in post #37 :

Though
I must ask
Why in the world
would you put me in here
under 'Tobler'
since I'm not longer
married to a 'Tobler'


i changed it to "Lawless".


which is cool,
cause it has the same syllables,
and the poem still flows the same.

Gaboman moves into Lymrics

There once was a man named Enis,
Who ate an entire dictionary.
His mother got kind of ticked,
'Cause they were supposed
to have the A's for dinner that night.

- Gaboman, 12/4/2006

As far as unrhyming lymerics go... that's, well, one.

Gabo Goes Goth

Blinding.
The light is
Burning my
Eye balls like
The firey passion
Of hatred
I feel for
The darkness
Of solitude undenying
The burning
Fire that burns
Through my soul
As a hundred Ravens
Peck slowly at my heart
While a hundred
Million swords of
Fire slowly burn cold
Through my skin
And make me
Grow boils all over
While I slit my wrists
And start wonder
Oh crap what the hell
Have I done, it hurts!
It hurts. Bloody hell
I hope someone gets
In here quick, or
Damn it, I might die.
I'm bleeding out,
And fast, and my
Jerk parents are
Too far away in
Their own worlds to
Even bother coming
Into the bathroom
To see if I'm okay.
Oh drat, why did I
Lock the door...
Better now. Woke up
In hospital. Three days
Later, home. Life
Is worse than ever, I
Wish I'd just died
In that bathroom like
I wanted to. But
For now, I'll live.
I'm alone, cold, and naked
A little hungry
And I have to go to the bathroom
But you won't let me
You won't... let me...

-Gaboman 28/4/2006

Lost
If it were
Possible for
Your television
To beat you
Up and take
Your lunch money,
Lost is the
Show that does
Just that.
It teases you
Week by week
With non-sense
About bears
And whispering
And Others
And boats
And pirates...
It's like that kid
Who tells you
Not to study for
Your test tomorrow
Because he'll
Give you the answers
On a piece of paper
But when you get
To school, he decided
To stay home
That day, but
You don't find out
About it until
10 minutes before
The test starts,
So you fail.
I hate you Daniel!
You ruined my chances
Of getting into Yale!!!
In conclusion, boycott
Lost
