General Ode to James

[Jason Waddell]

Ode to James

James, you irreverent Brushwagg, unsummarized by card tag,
Your socks, unmatched, and your enemies dispatched,
With zero artifacts in play.
I’ve never met someone so naturally handy,
With the aesthetic of a discarded Raggedy Andy.

Your stories, some Plathian nightmare:
“With two bigoted, racist miscreants, who reeked of excrement,
did I swelter, next to an abandoned disused shelter.
It was the time of my life.”

Your arguments, petty, ankles weak, arms are heavy,
Please put away that sweater already.

You are imbued with relentless positivity, and an unceasing proclivity,
For bad jokes. James, you are, truly, a win forger.
Despite my bombs, you beat me with, what, Baloth Gorger???
Baloth Gorger? I hardly know ‘er.

You two should play games with nothing on the line more often :')

Dude you can quote cross thread

James and I went to a local pre-release here in Antwerp. On a whim I tried to see if I could get 5-color control to work, and he played some midrangey black-green deck that was splashing for some removal spells. Anyways, because we're dorks who post on Magic forums, we both started 3 - 0 and met in the finals. Drawing would put us both tied for first (read: more boosters), so we officially did that. But we still played it out. And something had to be on the line. So we decided, the loser had to write an ode about the other. What I'm trying to say is, if you see an odd Ode thread in the future, now you know what it's about.

What, no. If he doesn't send them to the other thread, I don't get to double dip on those likes.

By the way guys, I destroyed Jason.

Exactly my reasoning for linking instead of cross-thread quoting......
....or something.
