Man, the guys at Benrik have created some sheerly hilarious stuff. I posted below about their World Mood Chart, but then I started looking around the rest of their site — and I found The World’s Longest Poem.

Go there, enter your own line of up to 60 characters, and it will automatically be added to the poem. It’s already 8,662 lines long (I dumped the text into an Excel spreadsheet to find out), though that includes a place in the middle with the line “yeti, dodo, chocolate muffins all dead but where’s the care” repeated 172 times in a row, which is either a bug in the program or a contributor making some truly opaque literary statement.

Here’s the text leading up to my contribution; the last line is mine:

And then I ran. Faster than any had thought possible.

and it all smelt like chicken

then father wispers, “Go to hell.”

but Reader, I was already gone.
