My thanks to JHBPrincess for the line that inspired this one.
Sung (of course) to the melody of: The sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkle

Hello Friday, my old friend
I’ve come to walk with you again
Because a week softly burning
Left it’s scars while I was working
And the users that were standing at my desk
Were insane
And spewed the sound of stupid
——-
In directory trees I walked alone
Ten milion files of mpeg-one
Wading through penis-enlargement spam
And then the real mail isn’t worth a damn
When my eyes were stabbed by a website in adobe flash
That split my brain
And screeched the sound of stupid
——-
And in the monitor light I saw
People praising “Avatar”
People talking without thinking
People typing without spelling
People writing crap that braincells never shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of stupid
——-
“Fools,” said I, “you do not know
Stupid like a cancer grows
Read my blog and I might teach you
Switch of Britney and I might reach you”
But they all said “STFU fag”
And clammored with the sound of stupid
——-
And the idiots bowed to pray
To the pop idols they wanted to lay
And the signs flashed out their warnings
In the words that they were forming
And the signs said “Caution: coffee burns when hot”
And “Am I hot” ?
And I wept at the sound of stupid.
