Snow still, in the shade But in the sun, ya old grill You're hotting up good
I wanted to add something about my yellow dog with pent-up winter indoor energy going crazy all over the yard on his rope toy. But there was no way to work that in in 5-7-5 syllables. Haiku has no tolerance for tl:dr long-arse meanderings.
In the shade, still
tldr
lies the old grill
tldr, tldr, tldr
the sun.
Nah, really, the tldr inside a haiku is so long it becomes breathing space.

Don't forget to drink lots of H2O. Peeing like a racehorse might make you feel like a racehorse.

If an advert gets through to me, I make sure to boycott their product.
Make this policy go viral and see the world change.

Sorry OP, I'm going to litter your thread with another haiku. This one is on the theme of the ephemeral and transient nature of all things. A common theme of samurai death poems.

My advice to you: Do not ever look up "worst guitar solo" on Youtube. You will be sorry. No joke. Really and truly sorry.

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy." -Tom Waits
Thinking about DNA-based evolution... So, a Cambrian worm's or more advanced bug arthropod's cells chemically arrange themselves into photo receptor cells. Proto-eyes. Happens over eons, of course. OK, but why have we never seen a fossil with proto-eyes on its back end? Or its underside?
If evolution is just a chemical reaction, repeated over quillions of generations--- where are the missing links? Why those eye lens just magically jumped to the front headlights area?

I always ask myself the following:
Do I need this product? How much do I want this? Why do I want it? How much will I need it?
Well, it comes down to this, I have clothes, food, some stuff for those things like an oven, pots, washing machine and I have a computer, bed and bicycle.
I can be packed and ready to go and on an airplane in two hours. I am not tied down by a bunch of dust collecting things I didn't really want.
So, when I say, take a boycotting idea viral, then I speak from experience that it may well work.

I mean, when you buy food for example.
Will you take a well known brand or a one you have never heard of and have no idea even where the company is from. |

I do not believe the marketing so I find out from experience or level headed word of mouth.
This is a de-rail. No need to split hair and try push for a few useless points in your argument. My stance is plain enough.

Read the instructions for your fire alarms. Some of them need a vacuum clear used on them time to time.

Somehow an airplane with a name intuitively seems kind of dangerous. Like, now it's a reliable old buddy, instead of a craft that needs precision maintenance and focused attention while operating. Maybe if they named the airplane "3.141592" or "a+b/a"...
