A lot of good research shows. Then made to actually make sense and rhyme! good job, Johnny! 5's
Johnny, you're lucky that I just finished reading a fabulous book about a prion that causes a world population threatening epidemic... or i wouldn't have felt close to smart enough to even read this. but since i did...and since i get it...there is nothing for me to do but to give you all 5s...great job!!!
Thank you, Adagio and Arwen!
All 5s SOMEBODY's got wayyyyyyy too many IQ points around here...ever think of sharing some? Nice job. The song doesn't offer a lot of leeway...so you've got to say a lot in a little space...and you did. Good job.
SNL, if it wanted to be funny, could use this on the Weekend Update...I mean, if they REALLY wanted to be funny....
And I just had a hamburger for lunch. I'll take my chances since none of us are getting out of ths world alive. Very well done JD. I am quite pleased.
Thank you Jude, Agrimorfee, and Guy !
I shoulda steered clear of this one. There's more than one definition of "bad taste"!
There's no bull in this parody. Excellent job, JD.
Thanks very much, MP and JJ !
That was great! All 5's!
Thanks Joelle!
While some call it a "PRY-on", others call it a "PREE-on"...it's kinda weird, one of those toMAYto/to-MAH-to things. I chose "PRY-on" though and thus give your parody many props.
Thank you, Rice Cube!
