In they tune of "if you're happy and you know it clap your hands"

I mind-sung it to "She'll be Coming 'Round the Mountain".
- Mine was “If you’re happy and you know it”.
  Edit: just saw that caption under the screenshot 😂
- Use Woody Gurthrie's voice and and stop for a harmonica break after stanza 3.
I read the whole thing as “Fred”, and thought “That’s getting pretty dark for Scooby Doo. He’s not that bad”.
- He might not be, but that fuckin neckerchief has got to go
  
  He's just so fashion forward he ended up going in reverse
someone desperately needs to learn meter
- if he's got no sense of humor he's a fed
  if he's got no sense of humor he's a fed
  if someone posts a joke
  and all that guy does is poke at it for not having perfect meter when the history of comedic music from Gilbert & Sullivan to Weird Al is rife with elongations and contractions to make a joke fit a melody
  if he's got no sense of humor he's a fed
  
  If he’s a stickler for the format he’s a fed
  If he’s a stickler for the format he’s a fed
  If he really seems to mind
  That your lines don’t really rhyme
  If he’s a stickler for the format he’s a fed
  
  If he's got no sense of rythm he's a fed.
  if someone posts a joke
  Do you really suggest I stress that on "one" and... what, the emptiness at the end of the line? A stressed pause? Courageous.
  
  Good idea, but change the "someone" to "somebody". Breaking rules on purpose doesn't work if you also break them on accident.
  
  i love jokes. i'd love to laugh at one someday.
- I thought it syncopated just fine.
- knock knock? You know we have DOORBELLS right?!
- Third epitrite (dah dah DAT dah) aka 4/4 offbeat throughout. In the original last dah after "hands" (which is on DAT) is a pause.
  I shall simply be pointing out "Fits betER with a suit AND tie". That 'er' is not a place where you can put stress, under any circumstance, and the "and" is questionable at best given that it would be the first syllable to vanish into "suit 'n' tie" in natural speech.
There’s also a long history of undercover feds self-identifying as anarchists, and leaked intelligence training that pushing for anarchism is one of the best ways for them to disrupt leftist movements trying to establish a socialist/communist state.
But y’all don’t like to talk about that.
- "Hey everyone nice party you've got here but have you consdiered all the ANARCHIST INFILTRATORS DESTROYING YOUR RANKS FROM WITHIN?!!! Why isn't anyone taking this infiltration seriously!? I think we need to clean house immediately and get all these CIA Anarchists out!"
  Who are you again?
  Anyway maybe that tactic works so often because most "leftist" gatherings are just another rally for another cult of personality around another authoritarian leader? If these people weren't investing so much energy into vanguarding and demonizing "the bad leftists" they might have built some actual solidarity and resistance to being infiltrated by cops.
- We don't want to talk about tankie paranoia, no.
  
  If he dismisses leaked CIA tactics, he’s a fed.
  If he dismisses leaked CIA tactics, he’s a fed.
  If he dismisses the deep state, as internal leftist hate.
  If he dismisses leaked CIA tactics, he’s a fed.
- Yeah they act like anarchists because they're the actual opposition. There's no point in them dressing up in foreign uniforms to lure irrelevant tankies.
- stfu fed
- Fed posting used to be believable.
- lmao, fuck off goober
