Long, long time ago,

I can still remember when

The callouts used to make me cry—

And I’d reblog any dumb shtick

Rather than be called problematic

And maybe I’d be valid for awhile

But Yahoo’s purchase made me tremble

Someone with money craves that mineral

Bad news from the ballpit:

The end was nigh, believe it!

I can’t remember if I sighed

When I heard the boobs would have to hide,

But now it’s time to turn the tide—

The day the dashboard died.

Well bye-bye Mr Xkit Guy

Take my meta somewhere betta now that LJ has dried

The fandom olds were writing lemons and limes

Saying “At least Superwholock died,

At least Superwholock died”

Did you write a fic of smut

Or draw that guy with a butt

Though the canon tells you no?

Do you believe in OTPs

Can coffee AU’s set you free

And can you write to burn real slow?

Well I know you draw incred’bly

So would you depict my OC?

It’d be perfect exposure

Man, I love those free favors!

I was reblog fodder known to most 

With a catchy screenname on my viral post

But now my feed is only ghosts

The day the dashboard died.

Well bye-bye Mr Xkit Guy

Take my meta somewhere betta now that LJ has dried

The fandom olds were writing lemons and limes

Saying “At least Superwholock died,

At least Superwholock died”

All continents are VALID

This is blatant Eurasia erasure and I won’t stand for it

Gee, Tumblr is getting more passive-aggressive…

y’all out here in 2017 saying ‘spoopy’ on some thin ice with god

Look if you have another word that perfectly captures the concept of “horror flavored but specifically in a way that is intended to be silly and not actually scary, that also evokes a strong feeling of nostalgia associated with childhood experiences of Halloween” I’m all ears motherfucker.

I submit to the courts @titles-for-tangents use of the phrase “Spooky Booky”. It checks all the boxes:

• Sounds silly no matter how you say it.
  
• Conveys the dark Halloweenie aesthetic while still being pure and innocent
  
• Seriously, have you tried saying “booky” with a straight face? You can’t. (And if you can, you’re lying, try again. You might as well angrily growl “Bubbles”).
  
• Easier to articulate than that second p in spoopy
• Immediately understandable to the uninitiated.
• Flexible! Shout it, dramatically whisper it, drop into everyday casual conversation. No matter what, it still holds its weight

If approved, Spooky Booky can herald in a new era of endearing spookums, well-spoken ghoulantries, and crazy banshee-nanigans. Let’s make 2018 more than a typo.
