The Rebuttals That Didn’t Make It

So with the rebuttals up for the DPL campaign, it’s as good a time as any to post the couple of drafts I had that didn’t make it into mine:

First, Ode to Zeke:

Pussycat, pussycat, where have you been?
I’ve been with Ari, he bought me some cream!
Pussycat, pussycat, are you sure that is all?
Well he did take some photos, to put on his wall…
Pussycat, pussycat, have you seen this website?
Oh, you mean “Team Ari”, ain’t it a delight!
Pussycat, pussycat, but what’s in it for you?
I just do what he says, lest we see you-know-who.
Pussycat, pussycat, how does he hold you in thrall?
You fool, if I run, he swears he’ll cut off my balls!

And second, my favourite, to the tune of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds:

Picture yourself in a team with the leader,
With frequent reports, and performance reviews;
Somebody emails, an answer’s forthcoming,
Compliant with mailing list rules…

Media releases, highlighting the project,
Users becoming your friends!
Look for the issues being mediated,
And they’re gone!

Jeroen puts esteem in talking…
