Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

In recognition of the abundance of 'guest' posters cropping up on the messageboards recently...
Be a 'guest', be a 'guest' -- get that griping off your chest!
(When you want to air a grievance, anonymity is best!)
Fake a name to retort (maybe 'Mrs. Duppensport'?)
Life is not a dress rehearsal -- step right up, be controversial!
"I've been One'd!"
"I hate poop!"
"That thread's gone? Hey, what's the scoop?"
Launch a dialogue (or diatribe) with zest!
If you feel justified (yet need to run and hide)
Then be a 'guest', be a 'guest', be a 'guest'!

Be a 'guest', be a 'guest' (it's okay, you're not a pest --
After all, why should you stand behind a post of pure protest?)
You can rage, you can vent to your feeble heart's extent!
Blast your bluster til you're blue-faced (then switch back and be a two-face!)
"Chuck, this parodist sucks!"
"Can't leave comments? What the...?"
Thoughts profound as these deserve be expressed!
But if you speak as 'you', you might see 2-2-2s
So be a 'guest', be a 'guest', be a 'guest'!

If you want to grumble and start up a cyber-rumble
But you fear your popularity will dive,
Jeopardizing all your future ratings, minimizing future 5-5-5s,
Log out from your profile -- you'll have freedom to be hostile,
And you'll find your animosity can thrive!
Yet when posters view your profile postings,
They'll still think you're great (though you're that nasty 'guest' they hate), so

Be a 'guest' be a 'guest', be the one that folks detest
Be the wussiest of p***ies, in the North, South, East or West
Don't stand up for your views! (What would others think of you?)
No, just cower like a coward (if it makes you feel empowered!)
God forbid you're not liked by each Peter, Dick or Mike,
For to lose a 'fan' would cause you too much stress!
So if you have the itch, to gripe or moan or b****
There is no need to suppress all the things you want expressed!
Be a 'guest' be a 'guest', be a 'guest'!

I am absolutely raving over this, Leo. You've raised the bar, and now I can't reach my tequila. Brilliant. Absolutely genius.

Gloriously rhymed and polished, great stuff. Is here the part I mention that I wasn't being sarcastic? ;) 555

That's weird, I didn't expect this to be up until today...

Anywhoo, thanks all!

I've been on vacation all week, so I think I missed a lot of what inspired this. But anonymous commenters are a particular peeve of mine--I think this is absolutely positively brilliant, and I agree with every word (esp. the "wussiest of p***ies" part). Great great stuff. Bravo. This should have way more votes; I guess you've just irritated too many wankers.

I'm totally with claude - vacation-wise and pet-peeve-wise - in australia, it's called king-hitting - too cowardly to face the consequences of their criticism, so they hide behind a pseudonym - absolutely pathetic - BUT karma awaits - like the ones-guys, once a poster is revealed to have a tendency to abuse behind brave pseudonyms, every other frightened anonymous abusive post after that is by default attributed to the same coward - great insights, Leo

Thanks to Claude for the pointer: I missed this first time around - great stuff, Leo :-)

Yep, Claude pointed me this way too; great job on an OS I've yet to tackle; I was DKTOS when this was originally posted is why I skipped it. Almost a year late with a comment and vote, but nonetheless here now.

I AM LOVING GUESTFEST, JUST SO EVERYBODY KNOWS. And I don't even care if nobody else cares. Stuff this awesome should not be buried forever, dammit. Today's Classic is by the outstanding Leo Jay.

Hey, Claude! I've been creeping around the last few days for the first time in eons and see this bump. Thanks!
Phil Alexander - July 31, 2014 - Report this comment
Still brilliant.. I feel I could be repeating my comment from nearly nine years ago :-)
