Some limericks about SOPA

There once was an bill called SOPA;
which resulted in blackouts all over.
Wikipedia went down*,
making school kids frown
in the US, Oz and Europa.

The bill’s meant to target “rogue sites”
but it’s drafted so widely it might
catch others which play
by the rules so they may
be closed in the dead of night.

A silly site such as this 
(reposting pics with added “diss”)
might easily be caught -
a terrible thought;
your daily snark you would miss.

So you need to make your voice known;
don’t let Wikpedia do it alone.
Writing limericks is hard,
so, in this regard,
something something trombone.

Read more here. Or for Teh LOLs, check out The Oatmeal. Or do a Twitter search for “fuck” and “wikipedia” for people that don’t understand what’s going on.

You should totally write to your representatives.

*I know it’s not really “down” - you can still access it on your mobile or by turning off JavaScript - but it rhymes.

    SOPA/PIPA are silly. But did they deserve this?
