Touche, Octopunk Don't like where I am at all It smells like garbage

I must confess that this was entirely the brainchild of AC, and she deserves all the credit and/or blame. Once she mentioned it, I couldn't stop thinking about it. This was an utterly irresistible concept, to put up one of our own for celebration and ridicule in 17 syllables, and what better First Person than the Father of Haiku Hump Day, Johnny Sweatpants himself?
I'm quite certain that almost all of you have a good JSP story, either having been raised with him, or hung out with him, or been the subject of his wrath, or been beaten by him at any number of things, most likely chess, Scrabble or Boggle. Or all of the above in one sitting.
[Image] [Image] Just look at that smug bastard.
He & I have also had a decades-old battle for Ms. Pac Man high score supremacy, which spawned this victory photo of his.
[Image] For his version of events, check it out here.
Of course, everyone should remember that at a proper Roast, it's not just the Roastee who should be the target. No one is safe. I expect to hear from Whirlygirl regarding JPX's dishwashing ability, or maybe Dana's Brain trashing Puffinslayer from some unknown reason. And I know for a fact Catfreeek is salivating at this whole idea.
I look forward as well to the inevitable JSP backlash.
Happy Roast-a-thon, everybody! Remember, NO ONE is safe!!!

Fart in megaphone
Then Stan does Jimmy Fund Speech
Just so very wrong
August 19, 2009 8:24 AM
Run, jump over Tom
While farting down in midair
THAT'S sphincter control

(while employed with me at McDonald's...)
Out of McChicken's?
Three McNuggets should work fine
Customer complained
August 19, 2009 8:27 AM
Let's NOT play Boggle
100 points in 2 minutes?
You freak of nature
Nope, no chess either
Checkmate within 7 moves?
I got ONE knight out

"What lesson" you ask?
JSP don't give a fuck
Watch out for his ass
August 19, 2009 8:56 AM
QUITE complicated
Whether it's ass, gas, or grass
You're all over it
August 19, 2009 9:01 AM
I hate Bruce Springsteen
His music is generic
Dull as dishwater
Suc k it Mellancamp
You make me puke violently
Just like rap music
What else do I hate…
I don’t much care for Texas
Secede already
August 19, 2009 9:11 AM
Always broke my toys
I'd find headless Star Wars figs
Our dad would glue them
Don't play games with him
Frustrating experience
You will never win
If you start to win
He gets in a foul mood
I have never won
People wonder why
I despise playing board games
It's JSP's fault
I've never played chess
"Why?", you ask, "How can this be?"
It's JSP's fault
I don't play card games
In fact, I don't know how to
It's JSP's fault
Went to his party
Gave me an extra strong drink
I slept the whole time
August 19, 2009 9:17 AM
Sweatpants missing point
Start attacking H'Thonners
See some fireworks
Who is this "Trevor?"
For that matter, who's "Tami?"
And who's friend is she?
I'm Puffinslayer
I have got nothing to do
And nothing to say
Must...feed...18...cats...
Add extra "e" to my name
Can't...post...gross haikus...
August 19, 2009 9:19 AM
Take Super Pac-Man
I schooled him about high scores
Then he schooled me back
August 19, 2009 9:23 AM
HandsomeStan's no saint
He likes to deport people
And then take their jobs
August 19, 2009 9:25 AM
No one's really safe
The Stan will dish and take it
Nice giant green fist
August 19, 2009 9:35 AM
Remember Miko?
He used to visit this blog
Where the hell is he?
August 19, 2009 9:36 AM
And Pac-Man Junior
Don't forget THAT ass-whooping
Because I haven't
August 19, 2009 9:37 AM
To Octo:
He had it coming
Revolutionary War
Should have taught something
August 19, 2009 9:39 AM
While at Disney World
He made me watch 'Tiki Birds'
God that's a bad show!
August 19, 2009 9:49 AM
Sure you want this Stan?
The drunken tales Cat can tell
Like a daiquiri?
A bit of advice
Strawberry daiquiris are
best served on the floor
JSP's love life
at the Showcase Cinema
dumb concessionists
Do I have that right?
Stan dated those dim wits too
some easy targets
and Puffinslayer
too busy gluing his ears
so they looked elvish
Why even bother
JPX has this week bagged
most material
as for JPX
Haikuing all the day long
Do you ever work?
August 19, 2009 10:19 AM
JSP used me
for my N64 set
played while I'm at work
Lured my kids to play
Then he showed them no mercy
made them cry and laughed
Then his Mom called here
sparks flying right through the phone
he left with great haste
Home to empty house
Map of Riverside on desk
Shit, she's coming here!
August 19, 2009 10:27 AM
JSP's not best
In Scrabble I kick his ass
just not in Boggle
Stan wrestled my kids
taught Zeke the famous nut shot
He screwed himself there
One night I recall
JSP babysat Chris
puking through the night
As I remember,
Chris said, "The toilet says Church.
you think it's a sign?"
August 19, 2009 10:39 AM
Whirlygirl too busy
Can't even write one Haiku
That busy? Puh-leeeez!
and where is Miko
thinks he's too damn good for us
We'll just hunt you down
August 19, 2009 10:54 AM
i pitched this topic
but there's no way i can win
ain't cool, ain't clever
August 19, 2009 10:58 AM
Johnny - Don't know him.
I don't know any of you.
Gonna stay that way
You all seem so nice
Sarcasm Entertains me
Work goes by quickly
I'm a math teacher
Heard about the thon for years
Now I'm addicted
Tami loved the Thon
She's a friend of Octopunk
He is a friend to all
Johnny Sweatpants tale:
Kissed me on the mouth after
my wedding! - not true.
August 19, 2009 11:01 AM
He's lost many phones
More phones than I have fingers
Who loses a phone?
August 19, 2009 11:05 AM
Start spreading the news
Anyone who doesn't post
Fucking dead to me
August 19, 2009 11:10 AM
Haha! Johnny's tale
Trevor is my new hero
I choked on that one
August 19, 2009 11:24 AM
don't act so surprised
johnny wins each game he plays
by subtle cheating
August 19, 2009 12:08 PM
i can't roast thonners
i'm just not meanly funny
get me bruce vilanch!
August 19, 2009 12:54 PM
50P hiding
Not eager to roast Johnny
scared of the fallout?
Landshark forgot us
guess he's been far too busy
sending candygrams
Brain and Desroc too
both are missing in action
send a search party
August 19, 2009 2:38 PM
AC's just too nice

I just realized
Jordan has never Haikued
wit that's sadly missed
August 19, 2009 2:44 PM
Deleted comment
Wonder what it said, for sure
about JPX
August 19, 2009 2:46 PM
Scrabble doesn't count
It's just 50% skill
Luck of the letters
Chess, now there's a game
None of my friends will play me
Except 50 Page
50 Vs. Stan
I think you're evenly matched
You should have a go
August 19, 2009 3:21 PM
I missed the roast part
Now it’s on motherfuckers
Who wants some beatings?
Stan sucks at Pacman
Risks his life for a cherry
Such a senseless waste
JPX & games –
The real reason he abstains
He’s kinda stupid
August 19, 2009 3:28 PM
Thwart my Scrabble skill
I've never swapped out letters
now that takes some skill
August 19, 2009 3:29 PM
Jordan never posts
I suspect he reads these though
And wears women's clothes
August 19, 2009 3:31 PM
Octopunk my friend
You have too many Legos
Do you need all those?
August 19, 2009 3:35 PM
The roast is SIZZLIN!
Cat's got claws, Sweatpants just bawls
While Stan is awesome
(I LOVE Trevor's first one, btw. And his last one. So MUCH good material here...)
August 19, 2009 3:55 PM
since stan backed idea
i will try to grow a pair
and dish out some roast
johnny's a bastard
got me to join facebook, then
whipped me at word twist
miko's a bastard
joined our clan, made us love him,
divorced our asses
jordan's a bastard
a writer who won't haiku;
use an alias!
August 19, 2009 3:58 PM
Handsome Stan go left!
Leave the damn cherry alone!
Sigh, he never learns
August 19, 2009 3:58 PM
Then there's the Gretch Thing
Pants a little TOO obsessed
Almost disturbing
August 19, 2009 3:58 PM
MUST get cherry first
Very symbolic fruit choice
Those perverted Japs
August 19, 2009 4:00 PM
Only a hundred?
Cherry should be a million
With a few high-fives
August 19, 2009 4:01 PM
Have your pretzel, Pants
And your banana as well
Pretty gay choices
August 19, 2009 4:02 PM
Nice dishing AC!
Stan won't suggest your letters
Stand for "All Cop-out"
August 19, 2009 4:04 PM
don't make me roast rick
he's a chef, remember? and
you don't piss off chefs
August 19, 2009 4:07 PM
whew! saved by the bell.
stan had "All Cop-out" haiku
would have made me cry
August 19, 2009 4:09 PM
Then there's Dana's Brain
Was there an aneurism?
Facebook and blog - poof!
August 19, 2009 4:35 PM
Miko has his guns
I hear he's a lousy shot
Couldn't hit a church
August 19, 2009 4:37 PM
Too bad this contest
Is not about the spelling
* cough * "Aneurysm"
August 19, 2009 4:37 PM
AC's agnostic
I think that's quite peculiar
She should know better
August 19, 2009 4:39 PM
Pants, stop deflecting
Let's get back to how you suck
Suck at everything
August 19, 2009 4:50 PM
Friggin' 50 Page
All of my girl friends love him
Glad he's in L.A.
August 19, 2009 5:23 PM
paltry 800
that's my facebook chess rating
all because of pants
jpx whirly
nice folk, and they rescued me
from jealous lover
(they might not even know this themselves)
August 19, 2009 5:23 PM
Oh really, Handsome?
Last time we played racquetball
You were sucking wall
August 19, 2009 5:27 PM
This isn't about ME
I'm busy sucking...down beers
At that I'm AWESOME
August 19, 2009 5:33 PM
Live in Walnut Creek?
Why bother moving westward
To lame-ass Lametown?
August 19, 2009 5:40 PM

Not so in Berkeley

Too many haikus.
You all kind of suck, really.
I mean, get a life.
August 19, 2009 6:44 PM
Zack can't type for shit.
Is it mean to roast babies?
'Cause you know, yummy!
August 19, 2009 6:46 PM
Oh Stan's so awesome

every chance he gets
August 19, 2009 6:57 PM
Julie is twisted
so I'll forgive her for now
if she shares baby
August 19, 2009 7:03 PM
Zack - hear you loud, clear
Pants is TOTALLY jjjjjy
Couldn't agree more
Juiie, I'm crying
Tears of laughter. "Baby roast."
And that Cat wants some.
August 19, 2009 7:21 PM

No-look 8-ball shots
JPX busy
Talking to crazy people
End of day? Whirly.
