I only know juicero courtesy of a previous OOT LC Thread

A juicero job opening popped up in my LinkedIn feed. Hahahahahaha no thanks.

Dbz and others,

Lol juicero.

WIM is where it's at now! https://www.wimyogurt.com

One of the best hacker news comments I read a few months ago was in a discussion where someone argued that Anthony Levandowski must be great since he made so much money.

"He made over 100M? That's Juicero money!"

Larry,

That guy is def one of the top compensation negotiators of all time.

Winner of this year's English language haiku contest:

Freshly mown grass
clinging to my shoes
my muddled thoughts

Honorable mentions:


wtf?

lol wat haiku
gregorio tilted
no serenity now

four legs and two wings
antennae seeking honey
oh canine of bee

Haiku is something that probably makes sense in Japanese, but in English is just another excuse to make bad poetry.

Quite the long August we've got going on here.

leaves fall, crimson blues
briskly washing me away
winter is coming

My complaint is with the lack of 5-7-5 meter. Does noone respect tradition anymore? Otherwise, the poems are transcendent.
This is a very unique and fresh poem. After a squall has passed, the author is walking across a freshly cut lawn and some grass gets onto the bottom of their shoes. The subtly differently colored blades of grass create a random pattern on the bottom of the shoes. Thinking about life while walking across the lawn, the author happened to notice the pattern created on their shoes, and comes to think of it as reflecting their own complicated thinking. The expression “muddled thoughts” is especially skillfully used.

During a seemingly aimless stroll, at some point your pocket is full of beautiful, round stones. Picking them up has become something of a habit, with eyes and hands moving almost subconsciously. This is a deep poem, providing a connection as it does to the memories collected during a long and full life.

Seems like more of a guideline than a rule...

From Wikipedia:

Of course the first thing I did when I came across those outrageous liberties was consult Wikipedia. Just a bunch of lazy excuses. What's next, sonnets that don't rhyme?

Freshly mown green grass
Clinging tightly to my shoes
My muddled thoughts come

Fear not, the Sleepytember LC thread has arrived

Glad to see the left-side asterisks in this thread almost caught up to the right-side ones.
