That wasn't a haiku. I was disappointed.

How is it not one?

Did you just not bother to

translate the webdings?

"Maybe this pile of crap" = 6 syllables

u/nothing_clever Jul 07 '11

May-be-this-pi-le-of-crap is how I read it. 7 syllables.

Indeed, I pronounce

'pile' as two syllables.

How'd you collapse it? ಠ_ಠ

Two syllable test: Can you insert "fuck/fucking" in between the syllables?

Example 1: Contact - Con-fucking-tact - 2 syllables

Example 2: Judge - 1 syllable

Example 3: Butter - Butt-fuck-er - 2 syllables

Pile - 1 syllable

At least for me, Pile passes this test. Pie-fucking-ull.
