I posted this as a response in a thread, But I think it deserves its own spotlight. took me an hour to retrofit that entire damn poem.
Enjoy

Twas the night before D2 and all were in a fit
the forum trolls were bickering and talking up shit
The preloads were hung at 99 percent
making players rush to the forums to vent
.
The players were skipping rest in their beds
while visions of teabagging dance in their heads
and I fueled by rockstars and crappy poop tarts
fought off my churning stomach, holding back sharts
.
When out on the forum there rose up dumb crap
that made me facepalm with a resounding slap
Away to the window I flew like a flash
to smoke a cigarette completely to ash
.
I returned to the forum like a breath of fresh ass
and tried to stay above the trolling and let it all pass
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear
another post about beta, that generated fear
.
The posts were flying so lively and quick
that reading them all was driving me sick
More rapid than eagles the salty comments came
and laid the beta on Bungie's shoulders with blame
.
now -blam!- it, now shut it, now shove it up your butt
on and on we all argue as one collective nut
to the top of the treading threads, never to fall
I threw up my hands and said -blam!- it all!
.
As wet farts in the shower, more posts did fly
beer was not obstacle for posting, nor being high
the moderators got alerts and to the forum they flew
and ended up arguing and weighing in too
.
And then in a twinkling, I heard from youtube
another rank and file tuber, crying boo hoo
my hands flew to my head as it started to pound
but then Luke smith posted answers around
.
He was dress’d in a hoodie with destiny swag
and looked like he crawled out of a punching bag
A bundle of tweets he answers back to back
and paused to give Ikora a backhanded smack
.
His eyes - how they twinkled with clever response
and answered each question in candor and taunts
His twenty minute talk hyped and bolstered the game
fanboys rejoiced, while the trolls said it was lame
.
I pushed down another rockstar through my teeth
and wondered if my heart could cry out in greif
the score of poptarts went to war with my belly
and made me throw it all up like a pool of chunk jelly
.
yet none of that mattered, my preload complete
I sighed in relief and washed puke off my feet
when the game unlocked I will be ahead
until I hit the launch day patch I know I will dread
.
I made sure to fake a sickness and called off my work
then flamed an another clan post, made by some jerk
I felt real salty and bitter, I was pumped with caffeine
so linked him to recruiting and said something real mean
.
as I look back to the forum on the Bungie website
it didn't matter if I was wrong, or if I was right
I will play the game anyways, I gave Bungie my bucks
and say to you all "shut the hell up! I give zero -blam!-s!"

3 RepliesThank you for everyone that Liked or Disliked the poem. It was fun to create and/or ruin. As for the people that tell me to stop. Do not tempt me to raise the stakes. How about a Disney song version? Let it load...... let it load....... The code didn't matter anyways.... Do not wake that dragon.
