A Haiku is a Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.
Well, that said, heres the rules:
1) The Haiku must be original (no plagarizing)! 2) It must fit the weeks theme 3) It must be submitted before the deadline 4) It must be submitted for the contest (no using works previously written) 5) One Submission per user 6) The Same User cannot win twice in a row (but there welcome to submit!)
Hopefully oneday the winner could get a merit...
The Deadline will always be a Wednsday, so the deadline for the first theme will be Wednsday, September 2. The theme is The Pond
XVERB did you just say "swedish" with two ee's? Hehe i am from sweden so i think it is pretty weird if you write it with 2 ee's even if it is not weird for you to say.
You are on the internet. Learn to google? Learn to urban dictionary?
Beginning as a plural variant of lol, Lulz was originally an exclamation but is now often used as a noun meaning interesting or funny internet content. Lol -> lul; lols -> luls; lolz -> lulz.
Lulz is the one good reason to do anything, from trolling to ra/pe. After every action taken, you must make the epilogic dubious disclaimer: "I did it for the lulz".
This has been pioneered by encyclopedia dramatica, famous for posting a fake craigslist add and then listing the personal info of those who responded.

well i can't spell worth my life. but i can sound words out so when i think of Sweden i think of two e's
Contrary to Dudeguys prediction, and my suspicions, this turned out rather well. Let me start out with a little twist.
And I think I'll go back to my original style of judging. That was far more interesting, was it not?
Conversation Award: Sweedish? - Freakenstein, XVERB, Cenere, and SlimyGames
Seriously, that was hilarious. It deserves it's own award for funny, in a subliminal kind of way.
Now for seriousness. On a nonserious theme which was totally thought up in about 3 seconds. Lol. I'm not really sure whether or not to count the initial entries. They only got entry-ish after I gave an explanation. No, I won't count them, unless the author asks me to.
Egos = Lulz? - Graham
The theme is alright. Egos don't squander the lulz Lulz wins in the end
Yes, lulz does win in the end. Because they are funny. You get the idea. And the haiku was good, too. That makes it even more good. In a funny way. PS: Glad you thought my random theme was alright.
That Was Random Award - Marioman
I love baked beans, but they make me constipated Oh no, hemorrhoids!
Yes it was. From loving baked beans (which are awesome) to having hemorrhoids. That was actually funny.
Dur Is Very Funny Award - Beastahayes
Lulz won't make me lolz dur is funnier than lulz you couldn't say drot?
Yes it is. In context, of course. And this was in context. Sort of.
Yes I Am - Pois0nArr0w
I see you back there Nothing I said was funny You aren't laughing
Yes I am laughing. In real life. That is very funny. And a good haiku to boot.
I'm On Fire Award - MrAutomatic
You're hilarious But I am quite sarcastic Tee-hee, you got burned
Not literally. And I love sarcastic people. They remind me of me. That was sarcastic. And yes I am hilarious, don't deny it. (not really)
That Was Random 2 Award - Yodadude
Lulz I like apples Lulz I like fresh bananas Lulz,lulz, what is lulz?
Lulz is what you wrote. That was very lulzy.
Okaay . . . . Award - Freakenstein
Ceiling Cat and Steve, After a snorting contest, Went orca fishing.
That was so random I laughed quite hard . . . Win. That was win.
I have a language problem . . . . - Cenere
Jeg skriver paa dansk Ler af de udtryk I har Sproglig joke maaske
That was interesting. I don't know a word you said. But I learned a bit of syllable counting from it.
I Don't Know What To call This Award - Parsat
My greatest triumph: A goose-stepping class for that Fuhrer of a coach.
That was weird . . . .
You're a Completely e-Narcissist - Lige/DustyGonzongas
Lige is so awesome You will never be as cool so please stop trying
-.- I will never stop trying. I don't need to, for I have succeeded!
True Award - Teeheegirl123
They all say they lulz But are they really laughing? Nope, probably not
That's true most of the time. Although sometimes we do lul.
That's all for the awards for everyone. I did peoples first/actual entry, because some people posted 2 haikus. Say which one is your entry, or I count the first.
Next is the placement. I'll do a top four this time around.
Bronze Award - Lige/DustyGonzongas
Lige is so awesome You will never be as cool so please stop trying
Why I'm placing this is beyond me . . . .
Silver Award - Cenere
Jeg skriver paa dansk Ler af de udtryk I har Sproglig joke maaske
Despite not knowing a thing about Danish, I still did laugh.
Gold Award - Parsat
My greatest triumph: A goose-stepping class for that Fuhrer of a coach.
Despite being weird, that was funny and slightly poetic at the same time.
Platinum/Lulzy Award - Freakenstein
Ceiling Cat and Steve, After a snorting contest, Went orca fishing.
I literally laughed quite hard. No joke. This was epic.
That wraps it up for judging. I guess the next theme won't be ridiculous, seeing as no one really liked it. It was still very fun to judge, being lighthearted and all. Serious topics are less fun.
And if there are any objections, contact me on my profile. I'll try to see them resolved.
And all of them were funny in some way or another.
Next theme is Mastery of Water, unless anyone objects.
