| Parody Written by: | Tommy Turtle |
Turtle takes timeout from "tributary" train to colleagues to trash self. OS might be here. There is an instrumental, not very good, but gives the sing-along tune, here.
T. Turtle
He's the man who's really am-phi-bi-an
Or Libyan?
Febril-y fertile;
Feckless; few find funny fom-EN-ta-tions:
Or or-a-tions!
Blooded--cold; brain big barely as pea
Wastes 9/10 of it on par-o-dy
What remains: insane; droll doll disdains him;
Pain, attains; wit wanes:
What gains him???
T. Turtle
Ardent-ly, acts always alliterate
Nitwit: he's it!
Sacrifices: semantics, syn-tax;
E-lides; ex-cess ellipses; limns lax;
Order? Switches words; screw sentence structure!
Mangled meter:
Manufucture!
T. Turtle
AmIRight, beware when seeks air from shell
Might give you hell!
Silly trivia: such shining star;
Rare: recall where at mall parked his car
Reptiles: scarce evolved from Brontosaurus
Trashing, thrashing
Through thesaurus!
T. Turtle
Pallid puns: pla-cate pea-brain, people, please!
Paeans: appease!
Invalid puns, seize
Of TT's!
Poignant pleas:
Beg: mer-cies,
'Cept Turtle: no knees!
Facts, he flees:
Feigns with ease!
Thinks he's Socrates!
Lunacies:
With wit, please defease!
Geez, Louise!
End all these
Par - o - die - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ie - ies!

Magnificent ! Self-deprecation is always sooo humbling.... but thank God it's only temporary in your case.... 555 nonetheless, from your adoring fan...
Ow my carapace ruptured while laughing. 555
Impossible to top, TT, you terrific terrapin!
Highly humerous self spoofing...Titillating, and turtle-ating
too funny
555, very clever.
"Rare: recall where at mall parked his car" was a LOL moment, TT - 555
Paree Dee (lol), Mental Void 19, John Barry, AFW, alvin, Stephen Harrington, thanks... Stuart McArthur, thanks; unfortunately, too true...
Everyone: I promised ChuckyG that after this week, I would get off the "tribute" kick for a while, as they're (understandably) not his favorite type of parody to post. Friends who haven't received "tribute" yet: it will come in time. Thanks again.

Fun parody, liked it
Larry Hensley, thanks.
Stumbled on this gem thanks to Chance (he even gave me its IP address with full headers!). And ain't irony lovely... fav. line of many wonderful gets was
"Trashing, thrashing
Through thesaurus!"
though...
"Ardent-ly, acts always alliterate" a close second!

TJC: Hoped you thanked Chance properly, and I too must do so -- nice to have a friend in Fate, even though this parodist has often random down people's throats! Deturtleministic heueweristics notwithstanding (or notwithcrawling, in TT's case), TT thanks TJC to the tenth tier! (ill-iterat-ion, admiTTedly). Thanks for v/c ... and where is your companion, unknown/NorCal/etc. votress? lol.
