Earl Grey Posted December 15, 2019 Dear Bums, It's that time of the year and I thought to experiment in a new tradition, in the spirit of being merry and where usual aggression, be it passive or active, can be turned into affectionate roasting and toasting, ribbing one another because through it all, we're a dynamic community and family, who bring each other up and piss each other off, like the Addams Family and the Honeymooners, even with a few odd ones out like the Archie Bunkers and Al Bundys out there. Begin with any member, conversation, thread, or memorable event of the year and celebrate it with a roast, a toast, or a jingle. You can do this as many times as you want, but you must do so in a manner appropriate for the season. And if you're Jewish, come right in and give us Hanukkah fun too. Let this go through Kwanzaa to New Year, folks. Whatever you do in this thread, don't be dicks... be Dickens! I'll start out with a little jingle, to the tune of Santa Claus is Coming to Town, a toast for Sean's triumphant return, I give you, Sean The Man is Cleaning up House You better not shout You better not fight Better get out If you're the Alt-Right Sean the Man is cleaning up house He's making a list And checking it twice Gonna find out who's naughty and nice Sean the Man is cleaning up house He sees what you've been posting He knows when you're a bloke He knows if you've been bad or good So be good, don't just be Woke! O! You better watch out You better not cry He's kicking them out Kiss the Alt-Right trolls goodbye Sean the Man is coming, Sean the man is ready, Sean the Man is cleaning up house. 5 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And in the darkness shineth Your everlasting light The holiday festivities Are at your house tonight. And if you're not agreeable I don't know what we'll do, We'll have to find another place That also has a loo. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Earl Grey Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) To the tune of 12 Days of Christmas, I give you The Twelve Days of Digging but am too lazy to type out the whole version, so figure it out with each day already spelled out here like we've reached the 12th day already. On the twelfth day of digging the forum gave to us: 12. Luke's Awesome Artwork 11. A brand new Mo Pai FAQ 10. Board rules much better 9. Brian coming briefly 8. Jim's wake and party 7. Non-cis as a forum 6. Sex talk and qi flow 5. Tao-MEOW came baaaaaack!!! 4. Some awesome pics 3. More weird memes 2. Dwai and Steve's new books 1. And a chain for haiku poetry Edited December 17, 2019 by Earl Grey 1 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As it is, suffice it to say that if I ever thought spiritual people didn´t "get angry" or were "party-poopers" you´ve disabused me of that notion. 9 hours ago, liminal_luke said: Mixing practices and looking for advice? Earl Grey tells it like it is, he doesn´t care about nice. Chia says be celibate, get your immortal peach. Freeform says be careful, you´ll become perverted leech. Taomeow knows her yin and yang, she´s a genius cat But if you try to fight her, she´ll swat you like a knat. Guys come here to get power, attract all the girls It´s a real Taobum bummer, why aren´t you casting pearls? Above is an example of an affectionate toast and roast from liminal_luke that doesn't have to be set to Christmas and Hannukah jingles! Now my challenge to Luke (or whomever) is to see if you can do something like "You're a mean one, Mr. Grey" to the tune of the Grinch song!

Nintendao Posted December 17, 2019 To me this song, just as it is, embodies so much of the spirit of strife giving way to unity we sometimes see here! I'll add this over the chorus, though If Flowing Hands walked in today, I just imagine what he'd say, He'd say "Oi! don't ya know, this site's 'bout the Dao*, You chumps carry on 'bout your Chrsitian holiday." *pronounced like "dough" 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nintendao Posted January 3, 2020 Let all the Trump Talk be forgot, And never brought to mind. Forego the squabbling for naught, For auld lang syne. To cultivate your Dao of De, For now and to all time, Empty your cup and don't forget, To shine an inner smile.
