The temperature here
is four point four times of that
Perhaps you should move
Texas feels freezing
But it's only 60-F
Something's wrong with us

I guess we treat this as a game
for rhyming seldom is a bore
Every second line to end the same?
if you're bright, that's not a chore.
Are you calling me dumb?
Well you're not far off the mark
My brain's made of gum
That's been chewed by a shark

60 degrees F?
Sounds good for outside to me
But it is 50.

I am so cold, now.
Seven degrees C, oh no.
I think I'm dying.

We are at nine now,
but it's raining and Yr says
maybe freezing soon.
:norway:
 Mostly quiet.

I don't think sharks chew gum a lot
Not alligators either.
Their teeth would from the sugar rot
or they'd eat toothpaste by the liter.

I WISH IT WAS COLD
Much more cold than it is now
50 Fahrenheit.

Same, in the morning.
30 minutes, shivering,
then car's heat turned on.

I WISH IT WAS COLD

50 Fahrenheit.
From Alaska, right?
Way to cold for me, up there.
I'd sit by fires.
Feel free to PM.

Not if you chew sugar-free gum
Have you heard of the stuff?
If you want I can send you some,
Because I can't seem to get enough

Now I'm frozen head-to-toe
I thrive in the heat

But all those things taste mint
and all the toothpaste too,
they just can't take a hint
that some think mint is boo.

Clearly you need more variety
I have some that tastes like lemonade
And just for the sake of propriety
It's best chewed in the shade

Sugar-free lemonade gum sounds dire
reminiscent of sugar-free gummy bears.
Sitting on the toilet so long will tire
and creep into your worst nightmares.

It's perfectly fine I assure
The gum I chew is top-notch
By any measure

I wonder if we should make a Dr. Seuss book out of this
There's little plot and much weirdness
