Sadly, not long Copago. I've been ripping off songs for years

To the tune of "Hotel Calfornia"

On a byzantine website
Rife with Ozzies and Brits
Seppos, Belgians and Scotsmen
Sharpening up their wits
As I jumped to the fora
I saw a glistening light
I went to Useful Tips and Tricks
And learned about elm blight
Then I went down to Issues
Saw a chilling tableau
10 threads about monkeys
And what humans don't know
Skittered off to Music
And I saw with dismay
Avril, Nessa and "Brit" everywhere
Though I heard them say

Welcome to the funtrivia fora
Such a lovely place
Lots of wrestling space
Plenty of posts at the funtrivia fora
'bout your favorite cheese
And a pet rat's fleas

The threads they do wander
They've got vagabond shoes
Shania's knocking Canadians
Blue's lambasting the Jews
Snm & Coolup
Mocking Kofi Annan
Tielhard to the rescue
(Tell me jazz hasn't gone!)
So I jumped to The Commons:
"Why do you like air?"...I said
I'll just hop down to Current Events
I'll read CB there
And still those voices are howlin' from far away
'bout whether God really exists,
and could She be gay?

Welcome to the Funtrivia fora
It's a heady place
Not a waste of space
We're havin' a ball at Funtrivia forum
Talking 'bout the eel
And whether science is real..

Lightbulb next to "Memories"
Depict a recent post, and she said
I've lived many places,
But I like France the most
Back to "Music Cellar"
They're tearing rockers to shreds
Berth and Magpie sneer at Tears For Fears
Someone else hates the Dead
Last thing I remember
I was mired in "Feedback"
Endless posts about chatrooms
With Tha Reap taking flak
Relax said the Gunman, we are
Programmed to attract
You can sign off any time you like
But you'll just come back...

Coolup, the last time I read anything so funny was, um... yesterday. But that was also written by you

I think we have a winner!
