huh. this sure is interesting:
“While all Japanese classical haiku, as well as most modern ones, contain a kigo (season-word: a word or phrase indicating one of the four seasons of their year), extreme variations of climate in the USA make it impossible to put a recognizable “season-word” into every America haiku. Therefore, American adaptations are not so concerned with season-words as are most Japanese haiku.”

Well, it’s complicated. The use of three (or fewer) lines of 17 or fewer syllables is a common English practice. Japanese haiku rely on sound units that don’t correlate with English syllables. The Haiku Society of America (which is a thing that exists!) gives a pretty loose definition here: http://www.hsa-haiku.org/archives/HSA_Definitions_2004.html#Old_Haiku

I have a haiku question: are the syllable requirements allowed to be met in any line? If not, how many times have you fudged a little and I not caught it?! I feel so…I dunno… I need to go process.

(eh? eh? threw in a little lesbo lingo for effect)

Applause accepted.

If you’ve only scissored once, you weren’t doing it correctly.

Alright, fine, I scissored once. They made it into a statue: http://annapulley.com/misconceptions-about-lesbians/

Are you a rare breed who’s never experienced a woman cry during sex? If so, I applaud you.
