there once was a woman named rose
under various names she would pose
her style was not too unique
so her outlook was nothing but bleak
and she was thrown out on her nose |

While these limericks and rhymes are amusing
I'm concerned with the tone we are using
Tho' it's not quite amiss
We are better than this
Let's not become like the one we're abusing. |

Maybe this one's more suited to the "other" thread ...
If you want to diss "Shewho's not Named"
(Often banished but never quite tamed)
You should keep your eyes peeled,
Hold a fireproof shield --
I've a feeling you're 'bout to get flamed

I'm not flaming anyone. I'm just a bit appalled that we'd act like this instead of just simply thanking SC for their hard work, and moving on.

Our dear Edward is right, it's unwise
for us to act as those we despise
so I'll stop for the night
and no longer make light
'till Rose joins us again in disguise. |

While I agree with you, I think it's fitting ( and perhaps a bit ironic) that you quote a philosopher who also wrote about "thought of eternal recurrence".
The Sc was all a fluster
more efforts they could not muster
with backs to the wall
they knew who to call
Rose Busters

They tried to bring her membership to conclusion
but were unable to reach dissolution
with backs to the wall
they knew who to call
neophyte for a more permanent solution

Being sycophantic, in a manner of speaking, is hardly a more permanent solution.
I applaud SC's hard work and the quest to keep people who would abuse the system from DPC, but this public stoning is doing nothing positive and has no real benefit that I can see. Perhaps a bit of catharticism, but however it runs, it leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth.
But hey, that's just me. If the rest of you enjoy, then enjoy. I'll say no more. :)
ETA: Oh wait, you agree with me. lol.

Well if you are going to do a rose challenge, why not do a teeth challenge too...
So for the week we would have "roses" and "teeth"...
Freakin Sweet! |

Yeah baby! Let's dooo it!
And here's my humble limerick...Ok so I borrowed a fewe ideas...
There once was a photog named Rose
Under false names she would pose
Thrice she was banished
Until she again managed
To sneak in under our nose! |
