Below the ideas and anno's deep
Far, far beneath the voluminous archive
His ancient, undreaming, uninvaded sleep,
The 'Baker sleepeth: faintest bandwidths drive
His shadowy presence; and above him swell
Huge votes of millenial growth and height;
And far away into the sickly
screen's light,
From many a-where wondrous Bakers and Trolls dwell
With unnumber'd and enormous votes aby.
Winnow with great arms the lurking white
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge debates in his sleep
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep
Then once by 'baker and moderator, to write
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface sigh.
The Kraken

//And far away into the sickly screen's light// First run through I read as STICKY not SICKLY...kinda funny. |

I like the imagery and the idea of there being some ultimate 'baker, lurking on the site and biding their time before they emerge to post the most devastatingly brilliant idea that any of us have ever seen. I think you could create a whole new religion around this. |
|

It's DrBob! Prophet of The Baker! |
|
| |
It is time to get your buns in order, The Baker IS. |
|
| |
Heh! Surely "There is only one true 'baker and DrBob is his prophet!"? |
|
| |
he's not a prophet, he's a naughty boy... |

I had originally intended this to be about the longest lurker rather than the ultimate Halfbaker, but then I realised that it'd work better sounding like a 'baker who'd been 'sleeping' or lurking a long time and eventually will come out and leave the rest of us stuck for words or ideas. |

[UB], I think that's the second time that you've posted a megalomaniacal and/or evil laugh. |
|
| |
Have you been taking your anti-megalomania pills, or have they been trying to discover if you're really a sufferer of the Devil's Advocate effect? |

UB, I think that hand dryer is broken. You can use this one when I'm done. |
