Woke up this morning  
The Straight Dope was slow  
I only read one thread  
Then off to work I go

I checked from there  
Still crawling along  
It wouldn’t even load  
So I wrote this song

Went home at five  
Still not loading up  
So I made some dinner  
Coffee in my cup

Coffee kept me up  
Til 3:23  
Which was the only time I could post  
This little blues ditty  
I got the Straight Dope Message Board blues  
_Bah dum, bah dum, bah dum, bah dum bah-da-da._

Makes this my fastest posting yeeeet.

Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-da-da-da-dum.

Doper in the land

Oh I shore ‘nuff do have me some gawdawful walkin’ pnemonia buttnuggety blu-u-u-ues…

Bah dah da da dum… bum bum bum bum  
Bah dah da da dum… bum bum bum bum
