Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the thread
Not a togger was stirring, they were all drunk instead
The tripods were set by the back window with care
In hopes that St Nick a new EOS 5D MkIII would place there
The mods were nestled all snug in the staff room,
With brandies and jaffas and trying on Elf costumes
Marcel of course was the one dressed as Santa
But the stockings and suspenders caused much concerned banter
Then in 'out of focus', there arose such a clatter
Cobra sprang from the biscuit tin to see whats the matter.
Had Scrivens returned causing the forum to crash?
or was it the usual sparring twixt u8myufo and Brash?
The needlessly huge avatars assaulted his eyes
He wondered why they couldnt be reduced in size
but then, to wondering eyes did appear
a seasonal post wishing all festive cheer
The hint of sarcasm and the monitors glow
Gave a feel of unease to those in the know
As they continued on line-by-line
Wondering who had butchered the traditional rhyme
Not Dasher, not Fracster, not Prancer or Lynton
or Comet, or Moose, or some bloke with a Nikon
But a grumpy southerner who should be out shooting
Not concocting twaddle and the forum polluting
(apols to those I couldnt squeeze in!)

Brilliant 
. I'm now a festive, racist, homophobic, misogynistic, argumentative, knuckle trailing, keyboard warrioring, boneheaded thug. Merry Christmas!!
