Yep. Haikus have 5 syllables in the 1st and 3rd sentences and 7 in the 2nd sentence (for those of you who don’t know what haikus are), but this one has 5 syllables in sentence 1, 6 in sentence 2, and 10 in the 3rd.
Next time, whoever labeled this as a haiku, get your facts right, or I will put a curse on you which’ll cause you to speak Engrish forever!!! MWHA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!
yeah but that’s academic definition of Haiku, if you glance over the real world repertoire of Haiku’s you’ll see there’s many exceptions to the rule by many great poets.
And come on, it’s just a tongue in cheek reference…
The repertoire of Haiku’s what? And who is this performer/writer Haiku anyway?
More seriously, most haiku I’ve seen that break the rules tend to have one or 2 excess syllables over the 3 lines, not one short in the second and 4 excess in the 3rd.
Basically, I’m a bit fed up with people who try and claim anything that’s even vaguely verse in nature and has 3 lines to be a haiku!
Where did I say I was offering to pay cash for it? Which poses a moral question. Why is it that if I take a girl out for a $200 dinner, then spend the night with her, that’s legal, but if we share a pizza, spend the night, and I give her $200 in the morning, that’s illegal?
The woman has to eat something, some time, too. I just picked something that was cheap enough to be “regular food”.
I might do better to cook myself though.
Anyway, let’s get back to our sheep – I was trying to make the 2 nights as analogous as possible in terms of what we did together, and how much money I spent on the night. that way, the only real difference was where the $200 ended up.
First of all, be grateful that she’s you’re girlfriend thanks to me.
Second of all, I’m asking her to join us so that she may enlighten us with her expertise about the subject. Not because she’s one of them, but because she studied them. I meant it in the most respectful way as possible.
Racking up the cash a bit, there was an article in a British paper asking why a “nice girl was sleeping with men for £1200 a night”; I can’t help thinking that the clue was in the question, since 2 nights a month would give her an above average income. Oh and she is not being physically abused, or a drug addict.
There is an emotional aspect to sex which is difficult to explain or quantify. In my experience, women tend to bond emotionally to those they have sex with, men not necessarily so. It may not make sense for the woman to do this, but it tends to happen. Hormonal effects can not be turned off and on at will. When women have sex for payment vs emotional fulfillment, it can damage them psychologically. I think this is partly responsible for the high rate of drug abuse among sex workers.
This is just my observation. I would appreciate hearing from a professional on this.
I would share a pizza with a whore for the same reason I would share a pizza with anyone else; for the the pleasure of their company and human companionship. Sharing food is a very basic form of human connection.
Umm… too many syllables

Well, the site admin claims to be Asian American. OTOH that was my first reaction too; this isn’t even close to scanning as a haiku!

Maybe it was a Haiku before they translated it.
It looks like they tried to write a haiku, but couldn’t shorten their message enough and said ah screw it, just stick it all on that third line.
Wait, you want me to use myself?
♬I’ll tell you who to use
Who to surely surely use♬
Who’s your baggie?
Paper or plastic?
Amen!
I’m a human being not a bag D:<
*inserts grocery items inside of Kinky Tom*
EW
It’s not so bad; it’s called “feeding,” and it can be fun.
… fine. I’m hungry!
Whose PET is this?
WHAT?! What did I do!?
Well, I’m asking who is your owner so that he/she may feed you.
I don’t know, we never figured that out.
Crystalzoner?
Hey! I’m kitteh too remember. So I can’t be his owner.
How can I resist such an attractive directive?
I use. I surely use. Just not often enough.
?!!?!?!?
Did somebody let the cat out of the bag?
I’ll be the bag only on one condition: that they don’t use me to transport strange-taste horsebeans.
So, you call me a bag, and you say I’m easy. Yeah, you sure know how to sweet talk a girl. *sniff*
Hey, I never said that!… I said that you were ‘sleazy’…
And you know what they say; “Nice and sleazy does it every time”!
Unless that ho-ho-ho is actually a cop, then… not so much.

Why would you share a pizza with a wh0re???
The woman has to eat something, some time, too. I just picked something that was cheap enough to be “regular food”.
I might do better to cook myself though.

Exactly the difference is where the money ends up.
In the second example you’re abusing the situation a person is in (Poor/money addiction/…).
A nice dinner won’t solve poverty or a money addiction, it will only solve hunger. And I don’t think anyone would whore himself/herself for a taco.
What do people like about fancy dinners anyway?
If you can make a grand a week, you’re not that poor.
I don’t think the wh0res on the street corners make that kind of money though.
Hey, don’t talk about my girlfriend like that!… even though it’s true…
First of all, be grateful that she’s you’re girlfriend thanks to me.
Second of all, I’m asking her to join us so that she may enlighten us with her expertise about the subject. Not because she’s one of them, but because she studied them. I meant it in the most respectful way as possible.
Still don’t know why…
*scrambles for the exit of the comment box* I’m outta here!
Crystal… what are you not telling me?
*In high pitched voice* Nothing!
Crystal… please tell me.

I’d agree with you, if you preface each occurence of “woman” or “women” with “most”.
I’m not even secure with using the word “most.” I used “tend” and “can.” I am only basing these comments on observation, I have no data to back it up.
Money addiction? Lol, that would be a fun line to use with the utility co., the mortgage bank, the phone co….
I would share a pizza with a whore for the same reason I would share a pizza with anyone else; for the the pleasure of their company and human companionship. Sharing food is a very basic form of human connection.
….that doesn’t involve taking one’s clothes off.
Sorry Bluejade, I wanted to complete your comment.
Usually. It usually doesn’t involve taking one’s clothes off.
Naked with hot drippy cheese is bad.
Never cook bacon while pants-less. Grease burns are the worst… at least, that’s what I heard…
No, no, I thought I heard you say wheezy
Lot of o’rhyming here!
Easy peasy!
Sleazy Missy.
…And don’t be the of calling me Surely.
(from “Airprane!”)
… it’s a big building with patients in it, but that’s not important right now.
(also a punchline from “Airplane!”)
Have you ever seen a grown man naked?
I guess I picked the wrong day to give up sniffing glue!
Yes, I like a good laugh as much as the next woman…
I am the bag!
Don’t call me a bag!
