This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
Wikipedia Review
We do what we must
because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are banned
But there's no sense crying
over every quick block
You just keep on saving
till the database's locked
And the editing is stopped
A Squid failure notice up
For the people who are
still unbanned

I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you blocked my ass
And banned me
And blocked my whole college
And set the IT staff on my ass
As they kicked me out I cried,
I was so happy for you!
Now I've found your IP and your home phone on time
And I found your employer and I'll drop them a line
So I'm glad I got blocked
And the database is locked
for the people who are
still unbanned

Go ahead and leave me
I'll stay on the Wikback for a while
maybe I'll find somewhere else
to edit
maybe Citizendium ...
THAT WAS A JOKE, HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, these edits grate
They're so delicious and moist
look at me still talking when there's editing to do
when I look out there
it makes me glad I'm not you
I've experiments to run
there is research to be done
on the people who are
still unbanned

and believe me I am still unbanned
I'm adding edits and I'm still unbanned
when AOL's blocked and I'm still unbanned
when Qatar's blocked I'll be still unbanned
and when the world's blocked I'll be still unbanned
still unbanned
still unbanned
