So I decided to make a parody of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire", but revolving around the history of the forum instead of actual historical events. I'm not much of a singer, and my microphone isn't up to much, but I hope people enjoy it nonetheless because I figured it was about time someone did this.
I tried to get the events described in the song into historical order, but I took a few liberties here and there for lyrical purposes. Also, if I didn't include a big lolcow/event it's probably because I couldn't fit it in or couldn't get it to fit around the lyrics. Anyway, here it is. Enjoy:
Also, if you can't understand what I'm singing, here are the lyrics:
ED page, PVCC, #sonichu, CWCki
Mumble trolling, telephoning 14 Branchland Court
Chris discussion, speculation, all done without regulation
4-cent garbage wreaking carnage as a form of sport
Cogsdev's had enough, PVCC closed off
Trolls left without a home, felt just like the fall of Rome
@champthom to the rescue, gives us something brand new
CWCki forums for discussing failures of the genome
We didn't start the forum
It was @Null and champthom who began the pogrom
We didn't start the forum
Though we may not run it we still shitpost on it
Chris discussion takes a dive, what a time to be alive
Chris activity is rare, Forumer sucks
2013 rolls round, Null's takeover inbound
Lolcow board's here, boredom comes unstuck
Moleman, Nick Bate, more discussion's on the slate
CWCki forum's growing fast, everyone's having a blast
House Fire, Golden Knight, Chris's life goes to shite
Troll remorse giving force to some brand new white knights
We didn't start the forum
It was Null and champthom who began the pogrom
We didn't start the forum
Though we may not run it we still shitpost on it
GamerGate, Tyce and Jace, @garbageraider falls from grace
Sluthate can't get laid, they pull a forum raid
@Marjan Šiklić, Croat with a tiny dick
Pepper spray, rebrand, doesn't go as well as planned
Deagle Nation is a hoax, Entersphere goes up in smoke
Chris due to stand trial, for his Sonic Boom denial
Sick Nick gets locked up, what the hell was the hold up?
Leonard Shaner, loveshies, ween-ing at an all-time high
We didn't start the forum
It was Null and champthom who began the pogrom
We didn't start the forum
Though we may not run it we still shitpost on it
@Glaive starts to lose his shit, @Cucky throws a ratings fit
Bloodletting, Glaive's gone, Phil's such a moron
Chris returns from exile, with some antics rather vile
Striker Wolf Part 2, new thread for Brianna Wu
Ali Rapp - pedofork, husband is a cuckold dork
Vordrak says: "Take that thread, off the goddamn internet!"
We didn't start the forum
It was Null and champthom who began the pogrom
We didn't start the forum
Though we may not run it we still shitpost on it
John Flynt's third thread, Julie Terryberry dead
Cybersex with ADF, CKMongler's tone deaf
Donald Trump wins the race, salt explosion seen from space
Happy ending not assured, for the social justice horde
Vordrak finally shuts us down, userbase begins to drown
Discord, CWCki Club, become our new gossip hubs
Three weeks later we're back, shaking off the prick's attack
Wanna shut us down again? Try is and you'll feel the pain!
We didn't start the forum
It was Null and champthom who began the pogrom
We didn't start the forum
But when we log out, cows will still chimp out and shout and pout and sprout and flout about...
