Haiku IM fun

Posted on Tuesday, June 21, 2005 in General, Humor and Internet

Tim was all proud of himself for composing a haiku away message:

I have Time to kill-
What ever shall I do now?
Play some basketball.

So I countered with my own:

My work is postponed.
Sitting at the computer
I am eating lunch.

And the following conversation ensued (edited for punctuation and IM line order issues):

Me:	I may do all my away messages in haiku.

Tim:	you do that
Tim:	i'll match you

Me:	Every single one.
	All of them will be haikus.
	You may if you like.

Tim:	ha.

Me:	(that was one, too!)
Me:	plural of haiku = haiku?

Tim: 	I noticed, I did.
	You are very clever now.
	I don't think so, no.

Me:	I suspect something.
	Are you counting on your hands?
	'Cause for sure I was.

Tim:	Haha, you are right.
	I need to stop this now, yes.

Me:	One more line you need,
	Then your haiku will be done.

Tim:	I play AOE.

Me:	Go play your game now.

Tim:	This is so much fun.
	I do not want to stop, ever.
	But we must sometimes.

Me: 	I know. Isn't it?
	I must tell Jennifer.
	She will do it too.

Tim:	She will love it much.
	She won't be able to stop,
	Just like we cannot.

Me:	Stop starting haikus!
	I think you are too smart, my friend.
	You are just like me.

Tim:	I am cracking up.
	This is not good at all.
	I am leaving now.

Me:	I am laughing too.
	I can't keep from making these.
	One more line I need.

Me:	There.

Tim:	haha.

Tim:	Enough of that junk.

Me:	AUGH
Me:	stop it.
