[QUOTE=Frylock] Oops, I thought he was newer than he is. Never mind. -FrL- [/QUOTE] It’s not just that one thing either. It’s lots of dumb questions (often in the wrong forum) and at least one instance of trolling, besides rudeness. After three months and over 600 posts, he should be “adjusted” by now. If he can reform his behavior, it’s fine if he stays. But I have the distinct impression that recently he’s been getting worse instead of better. ---

I really apologize for sounding belligerent. It wasn’t my intention at all. I said it in the thread about the painting and I’ll say it again here - I’m sorry if I sounded belligerent. **diggleblop,** I have nothing at all against you and didn’t mean to offend you. Peace! ---

[QUOTE=Guinastasia] Between him and **Wildfire** MM\*\*, they must have some serious info on the admins. I can’t explain it otherwise. [/QUOTE] Somehow, I got it into my head that **EddyTeddyFreddy** posted this. Well, I’m not going to waste it: **On Cement** You see, they do not versify. Though dense, dumb, dunderheaded they be, they do not rhyme and fly. I agree, all sense they’ve shedded. Sense is requir’d not here, you see. A computer, a credit card, no more than that for there to be a poster’s skull that’s very hard. They’re told, they’re told, my fingers tire. The will to grasp concepts they lack. I feel sure, neither’s a liar, It’s just - their brains, they’re in a sack. So even in a tinfoil bonnet, At least they don’t write a fucking sonnet. ---

[QUOTE=Shoshana] Perhaps a lovely [villanelle?](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villanelle) Or we can start another thread to discuss poetic forms. [/QUOTE] That’s pretty cool. I like that. Is the repetition of lines standard or just that particular poem’s style? ---

[QUOTE=Frank] That’s pretty cool. I like that. Is the repetition of lines standard or just that particular poem’s style? [/QUOTE] Standard. It’s an easy form if you use the repeated lines as a simple refrain, and gets a lot harder if you actually try to integrate the repeats with the rest of the lines. ---
