I’m sitting here doing laundry at midnight and using my landlord’s detergent and I’m thinking… lets write some haikus.
For those of you who don’t remember, haikus are poems that are 3 lines long and have a syllabic structure of 5-7-5 (syllables per line). I’ll do a feeble attempt at writing one.

There’s also supposed
to be one word to tell you
what season it is.
So that ain’t a haiku. 
Haiku can be good
But often times it is just
Too painful to read
If you feel that you must suffer, then plan your suffering carefully–as you choose your dreams, as you conceive your ancestors.
Phaedrus? This is you again, isn’t it?
Gosh you must lead a boring life.

Anybody who would write a haiku would eat peanuts with a straw.
It’s a barren art form with no redeeming qualities.
People write haikus
And hope that they’ll impress me.
Trust me, it won’t work.
Damn! See what you made me do, Cheese?
A seminar on time travel will be held two weeks ago.
Not mine, but a great Spam Haiku:
Oh, Argentina!
Your tin of potted meat soars
Above the pampas!
When done correctly,
I like haiku very much.
Otherwise, it sucks.

I don’t have an evil side. Just a really, really apathetic one.
The flaming folders
anger me, I must admit
But the smileys rule
Coldfire

You are a 21 year old nerd, who is fat (that means overweight), can’t score a date, sucks at web-page design, and your name is ummmm Ryan? Also you are from or in Canada, and you are mentally enfeebled. K?

that was a mini haiku- a 3-5-3 combo… yeah, that’s the ticket

A long-lost thread found,
Rescued from oblivion.
Sorry - I was bored.
The wife of the man
Who invented high-heel shoes
Invented the tie
or this one from my old job when we had a Haiku frenzy:
With bulldog squeaker
Bonnie said it was OK
Merrily I skip
See she had this dog face on a gun handle toy that squeaked when you pulled the trigger and, ummmm, nevermind.
My Hiaku
clears throat
Chicken McNuggets
They are very bad for you
But they taste so good
Thank you!
bows and exits
Even one year on,
People still submit haikus.
What a useful thread.
Come to think of it,
I should win some sort of prize
For the longest bump.
