Otherwise known as the Games Room, think of this as a subforum of the social club reserved just for sociable icebreaker games. Beware - they can be addictive!

Virtue's Reward

Useful things are done;
I feel virtuous and play
With my fine laptop
Carpe diem. Savour every moment.

Bumping Threads

When you bump a thread
It makes holes in the ceiling
Of this fine forum.
Carpe diem. Savour every moment.

Misunderstanding

Nettiquette could be
Victorian knitting you wear,
A fine filigree.
Carpe diem. Savour every moment.

More tired than ever.
The truth is that babies make
Everything Harder
Always remember, it's your right to have a SUPER day.
If you're wrong, call me ... I'll have one for you!

See what's at the bottom and
Send it to the top
Carpe diem. Savour every moment.

I'm not sure who wrote this senryu but it's a message for all those who write hugely long posts for TH.
If you can't say it
In seventeen syllables

Carpe diem. Savour every moment.
