Alright - I said I was going to start a thread, because the forums are boring this week!!!!

On TJW's forums (yes, I whore it up there too :D) they have a Haiku thread. I contributed some that I thought were pretty good (all ET related), so I feel that I have the right to republish my haiku's from there, here.

I think popsicle had a good explanation of haiku, just so you can remember:

pops wrote: › Ok, you know the rules. 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 again, and heavy on the imagery. I know, this isn't 'real' Haiku, but a bastardized version we were taught in 4th grade. I'll get you started...

Rambo medics run
Packing around the corner
Riflenade bank shot

Bullets whizzing by
Where in the fuck are they from?
Skull split by sniper

Panzer is noobish
Put that fucking thing away!
Use adren instead

Hissing sound and smoke
Feeling of impending dread
Becks' landmine whoring

Some sick fuck's prowling,
Hoards of corpses with no pants!
Generator blown!

---

Now ---- lets read some more! 8)

Some new ones:


Check out this sweet spree
Twenty-two kills and one death!
Oh yeah, I'm mortar

;) dedicated to my good buddy hobbs :P


You ain't got no friends
An award you have received
team bleed back-rager!


Twitching and shaking
Cannot track the enemy
Fucking punkbuster!

Miller on a spree
Killing many then packing
BECK types 'bang hacker

only people who play on our server should get that one

okay now I'm fucked

Forgot to reload.

About to rage quit
Killing me with my own gun
Spawn camping med-whore!

Nade throws me ragdoll
Sweet angel medic revives
Nice I'm stuck in wall :(

lol brilliant Nura! Hilarious to me that the first person to post here is TJW :lol:

just goes to show u how much they love their haikus

How about you pump!? Got one for us?


Bonus BECK haikus:


Friday approaching
Excited for the frag fest
teamspeak with good friends!

Clueless allies spawn
Poised to unload tank MG!
overheated hiss.

I hate when that happens.....

Team is getting camped
I just captured forward spawn!
Slash kill now you fools!

Um, may want to check that last one Beck."Team getting camped" is 4 syllables by my count. Unlessss you're counting "camped" as "cam...ped".
And Pumpkin, wow, I don't know where to start. First of all you only have one line. And to make it worse, it only has 12 syllables total not the required 17 between 3 lines. Also, in the plural form would still be 'Haiku' not 'haikus'.
Tsk. C'mon guys let's follow the rules. Mmkay?

LOL - thanks Nura. :sign_fixed

--- another one ---

Who is this dumbass?
Smell of smoldering teammates
Flamer in the bank

Behind him in hot pursuit

Beck hides near our spawn
His head leaning past the wall

-

Logitech G5--
This mouse will last forever
Weighting game is over

Oh the good old days...
