#33 - Late Night Geeking
In my room, I stay up sneaking-
for a session of late-night geeking.
Stats, benchmarks, z-buffering galore!
Give me screens, trailers, rumors and MORE!
I don my headset, and advance into the fray-
Ready to frag some bitches, and pwn another day.
I hold my sing-a-longs, and flash my teammates.
They curse as I continue- a bloodlust left to sate.
Behind my glowing monitor, I can’t help but snicker
until I watch my Cable connection sputter, fade and flicker.
What the- I don’t understand. How can this possibly be?
The connection should be blazing at quarter-after-three.
The fogeys down the street are to blame.
I’m sure of it.
They are using my bandwidth for bridge games.
What is this shit?
Ah, it’s back up! Quite the fright!
Thought I might have to SLEEP until morning’s light!
Now, thankfully, I can resume my relentless browsing of the net.
For funny pictures, obscure websites, and whatever else my mouse can get.
I shall see you when the sun rises-
that is, if I even get out.
I must still compare my resolution sizes,
and anti-alias this rainbow trout.
Better yet, just zap me a message-
I’ll try to hit you back.
But don’t interrupt my geeking,
or it’s YOUR ass that I will hack.
