Price, it's all about the price
Sort of Amateur Smith VS Internet Experts. Many thanks to Lewis Carroll for the format.
Twas winter and the rifle laid
Rusting slow upon Smiths bench:
All critics typed “You Hack” to slay,
And the Wannabe’s cried STENCH!
"Beware the Armchair King, my son!
The words that bite, the posts that catch!
Beware the Know It All, and shun
The Imperious Keyboard Klatch!"
He took his bastard file in hand:
Long time the churlish foe he sought --
So rested he by the work shop stand,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in deepest thought he stood,
The Armchair King, with eyes of flame,
Came snorting through the transistered woods,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And grind through red
The bastard file went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And, has thou slain the Armchair King?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.
