"Pardon me sir, but is it stuffy in here?" I said to the host; as I hung up my coat He said, "We have beer just no air-conditioner." "God, that's a shame..." I stated with leer As I thought of a William Yeats' quote "Pardon me sir, but is it stuffy in here?" The quote had something to do with peer - - groups going nuclear... Not to dote, but did he say, "We have beer just no air-conditioner."? Because, I'm poor as hell, and sure to mirror this asshole's sneer with a foot note "Pardon me sir, but is it stuffy in here?" I hate the rich, they're the cream center of fear In all that they see, do, and hide behind moat Did he say, "We have beer just no air-conditioner."? I should have stayed home, I'm in the third tier To hot for a reading of what this famous poet wrote To say "Pardon me sir, but is it stuffy in here?" And hear, "We have beer just no air-conditioner."

I only go to orange county for oranges and tropical fish, but never otherwise, unless I'm on duty. Booty duty, lol.

Except for a few spelling errors, this is cute.

Tuffy (Villanelle) by horus8

"Pardon me sir, do you have a tuffy?"
I asked the man in the grey trencoat,
He said, "Why, yes! Wanna see it, lovey?"

Fluffy (Squiggle) by Pumice11!

"Pardon me Squire, but dost thou have fluffy?"
I beckoned to the nude boy breaking wind
He said, "pblrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" then rode off on my palfrey.

Maybe the feature song of a sitcom-style broadway play written by a gay Edgar Poe...but other than that, quite normal, if not abnormal. Wait! Oh. *8.1*
