writing in rhyme.
ya got trouble with a capitol T.
Well, ya got trouble, my friend.
Right here, I say trouble right here in Intensity
Why, sure, I'm an Aspie
Certainly mighty proud to say,
I'm always mighty proud to say it
I consider the hours I spend with a keyboard in front of me are golden
Help you cultivate horse sense and a cool head and a keen eye
Didja ever take an' try an' make a relevant post
about yourself in a sensory overload?
But just as I say it takes judgement, brains and maturity
to post on these forums here
I say that any boob can go and post ?me too?
And I call that sloth,
the first big step on the road to the depths of degreda-
I say, first- you start to enjoy an argument,
then you go lookin? for one
And the next thing you know your friend is postin'
for answers with an ?evil? emote
and scourin? the next for controversy
Hear him tell about religion and politics'
Not a wholesome nice discussion, no,
but a war where they get up all their hackles
Like to see some stuck up poster sittin? up there on his high horse?
Make your blood boil, well I should say
Now, folks, let me show you what I mean
You got ten, twenty, thirty days in the Refuge
Day that can that mark the difference between a gentleman and a bum
With a capital 'B' and that thymes with ?T? and that stands for 'troll'
And all week long, your Intensity youth'll be fritterin' away
I say, your young men'll be fritterin'
Fritterin' away their noontime, suppertime, choretime, too
Make a hit on your post count
Never mind face-to-face interaction or making ?real friends?
or showering
Never mind personal hygiene 'til you totally reek
and someone who catches a whiff of you passes out and that's trouble
Oh, ya got lots and lots o' trouble
I'm thinkin' of the kids in the controversial avatars,
ones they got from Something Awful or Rotten.com
Ya got trouble, folks, right here in Intensity
with a capital ?T?- you heard me, ?T?- and that stands for 'troll'
Now I know all you folks are the right kind of posters
I'm gonna be perfectly frank
Would you like to know what kind of conversation goes on
while they're postin? on those threads
They'll be tryin' out Google, tryin' out Wikipedia,
tryin' out serach engines like
internet fiends
And braggin' all about how they're gonna cover up
a definite flame with a happy face
Now one fine night they leave the general discussion
headin' for the Pulitical Pundits and Main Event forums
Opinionated men and educated women and biases
Shameless flaming that'll grab your friend, your buddy
into the arms of a jungle animal instinct- mass hysteria!
Friends, the idle brain is the devil's playground, trouble!
Oh, we got trouble
Right here in Intensity
Right here in Intensity
With a capital 'T'- you heard me, ?T?- and that stands for 'troll'
That stands for troll
We surely got trouble
We surely got trouble
Right here in Intensity
Right here
Gotta figure out a way to keep the young ones
moral after school
Spoken:
Mothers of Intensity,
heed this warning before it's too late
Watch for the tell-tale signs of trolling
The minute your son won?t leave the house
does he cancel his real life plans to chat in the chatroom
Does he use BBCode and emoticons verbally?
Does he have carpal tunnel syndrome?
Is he starting to memorize jokes
from the Sex-Mature Version Forum?
Are certain words creeping into his conversation?
Words like... lol?
And... ROFLLMAO?
Well if so, my friends...
Ya got trouble
Oh, we got trouble
Right here in Intensity here in Intensity With a capital 'T'- you heard me, ?T?- and that stands for 'troll'
That stands for troll
We've surely got trouble
We surely got trouble
Right here in Intensity
Right here
Remember the community, the forum guidelines, and common courtesy?
Oho, we got trouble
We're in terrible, terrible trouble
Those posts that are written to incite are the devil's tool
Devil's tool
Yes, we've got trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, yes, we got trouble here, we got big, big trouble
With a 'T'
With a capital 'T'
You heard me, ?T?
And that stands for troll
That stands for troll
Remember my friends, listen to me,
because I pass this way but once
(chant 'trouble', etc.)
