I'm the DRIVE-BY RATER (a poem)

I have all day with nothing to do

But Gather, I search and I brood

I'll find your article and rate it too

But won't read it to see if it's good

My logic won't tell me I'm giving you points

When I rate your article a one

I just do this for spite (while I'm smoking my joints)

And I think that it's me who has won!

So you get mad at me, and I don't give a flip

I'll just go to the next article and rate.

But my time soon will come and from Gather I'll ship

Though I'll still think YOU fell for MY bait.

(This is dedicated to the DRIVE-BY rater who seems to enjoy rating all articles he/she finds with a 1! So is this worth more? I wrote it just for you =0) ~ptttttttttttttttt!~)

I thought of William when I posted this (although it applies to most all of us). William seems to have been "hit" several times at least just this morning!

Oh I am so glad you have switched from 1 Calori to barefoot and pregnant, or I might have thought this was really you! ha ha!!

Funny, Tab!! Good job. So descriptive of these poor people who get their happiness in such a tiny, petty way!

Oh, yes, Terry, I am glad you finally figured it out. (yeah right!)
Tab One Calorie was my nickname growing up (and while the drink was so popular) b/c I was so skinny.
To this day, I am still pretty slim, but I just can't seem to get rid of this ever growing bump across from my rump!
