[lukegb]: I successfully merged the change… into the wrong branch
lukegb merged 1 commit into lukegb-patch-1 from lukegb-patch-1-1
Elephantom
The elephant is in the room
Is everyone oblivious?
A pachyderm portending doom
Should rightly be quite obvious
It trumpets and it bellows
Of its juggernaut intention
From these apathetic fellows
The din raises not a mention
So it rampages for a season
Destroying everything it can
The mob finally finds a reason
They all blame the boogeyman

Sponge: The Epic - Part 63.209
Ore afloat in Beta’s new set
With Reviewers all aboard
But nothing to review yet
So Reviewers all are bored
SysAdmin Team is on the prowl
Lurking invisible in the wings
They keep the hours of an owl
Doing things to other things
The Hurdy Gurdy of SpongePowered
Will soon play a familiar tune
The fourth time she is honored
Spongie’s Birthday, coming soon…

Give me offer(index, stack) or give me... kittens? -- Simon_Flash
Ultimate Cause
Caused by a humble flower
Felled by a waterfall
Flowing from a tower
Opened by remote control
Triggered by a llama
Ridden by a player that
Connected to a server
Which started by run.bat

Sponge World Tour
Spongie wants your servers
To join our Birthday Tour
We invoke the Spongiverse
In our search for many more
Spongineers as volunteers
Will step into the fray
To entertain eyes and ears
With encounters on the way
We’ll chat with willing staff
Of Sponge servers we’ve selected
Tour about and have a laugh
Until we’re disconnected
So show us all the neat things
Sponge powered Servers can do
As the Sponge World Tour brings
Spongie’s power right to you

Nor finely crafted tools

Opt or Opt Not
Hit the head of the nail
Make your plugins entail
Our very own holey grail
…The Spongiest numbers around
Spongie’s box of tricks
Brings Ore’s latest fix
Kicking in Sponge metrics
…Now counting up, not down

Trying to earn the achievement: Read the docs completely... -- ST-DDT (PR#757)
Semicolonic
Programmers seem wont
To a self-censored font -
Omitting semicolons from their text.
In ancient Greek theory,
They indicated a query;
Is this the reason they are vexed?
They need not bring anguish,
For no matter the language,
They assist in clarifying facts;
For they merely denotes pauses
For separation of clauses;
Breaths taken in between tracts.

Afterword
My eyes are frail, my knees are dim, everything is going grey.
I need a bath chair to recline in. Who are you people anyway?

Sponge: The Epic - Part 64.621
Sailing o’er the horizon
The crew bent on discovery
New lands to set your eyes on
Fresh treasure for recovery
Exploring the secret spaces
We shared our invitation
Wandering lost in places
That beggar imagination
Volunteers became the bait
For creatures or machines
To disintegrate by Stargate
And other amusing scenes
Nothing here can stop us
Although we wonder why
As we watch developers
Plummeting from the sky
Spongy lands are manifold
Across the digital straits
Spongie is now 4 years old
With an empire of many states

I don't like commas -- phit (going into a comma coma)
Ripples in the Foam
Nothing really changes
Time simply rearranges
Parts in a deterministic path
Temporally traversable
In principle reversible
Like precipitating crystals from a bath
Backward becomes forward
Making reason awkward
As events commence to precede cause
Time’s arrow flies both ways
To the start and end of days
Ripples traveling in between the shores

“I like spongeforge very much but it’s going to be a very bad game experience and I’m going to turn off the spongeforge server and I’m going to make it better and I’m going to make it better and I’m not going to make it better and you’re going to do it” – 5aihx
Nurse
In the channels there lurks an odd Bot
Which decides if you’re human, or not
She sends candid notes
To analyse your emotes
Then harvests your organs on the spot

Any machine is a smoke machine if you operate it wrong enough
The Hardest Thing
Traditional diamond swords
Really should not cut it
When mowing down the hordes
Their physics are untrusted
Crystal shovels also suspect
Axes scarcely credible
Armour a decorative object
Fitting would be terrible
Diamond’s special privilege
Can be brought to the fore
When you really want an edge
You’ll need a diamond saw

Made my latest tool
Lost it like a fool
Not being very careful where I laid it
I meant to take a rest
Put it down as a test
Then the freaking coffee table ate it

Players all online
Server doing fine
Like ambrosia wine
The perfect anodyne
Because they’re AFK
Nobody here today

It’d be a lot more convenient and exciting to find, say, a blueberry patch in the wilderness.
Or a flock of turnips. Maybe even a herd of cabbage. – Natesky9
Laundry List
Whenever things are used
They lose some of their order
Progressively more confused
Like ink dispersed in water
So it is with washing
Things move outside the box
You can find yourself with nothing
Except eleven pink socks

Pi in the Sky
Strange equations tantalize
But they feed only the eyes
Why should I care about -iπ
When there isn’t a slice for I ?
