I love local chat as it warns me about potential hostiles coming to kill me.
I hate local chat as it tells my hostiles I'm still here and they should keep trying to kill me.

I love local chat as it tells me I might have targets to kill.
I hate local chat as it tells my targets I am coming to kill them.

I love local chat because sometimes, I read "AFK cloaking".
I hate local chat because sometimes, I must "AFK cloaking".

I love local chat as people don't know they must keep it open.
I hate local chat as I have to keep it open.

I love local chat because instant smacktalk.
I hate local chat because of Jita.

I'm not an expert on poetry, but I don't think it counts as rhyming when you say the same word twice.

Oh god.

I'm not an expert on poetry either, but I don't think rhyming is a prerequisite.

Quite possibly the forth worst poem written, just under the third worst which come from the Vogons.

The second worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by their poet master Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem "Ode To A Small Lump Of Green Putty I Found In My Armpit One Midsummer Morning " four of his audience died of internal hemorrhaging and the president of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived only by gnawing one of his own legs off.

The very worst poetry of all perished along with its creator, Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Sussex.

The Vogons werent that bad, you dont have their fine taste in literature!
