Guest Post!

First of all, I want to thank Karl of karlthoughts for his shoutout this morning! Who better to appreciate a fine TooSoonku than a man who knows his way around a Woodsman reference? Please check out Karl's site when you have a few moments.

He was also nice enough to submit our first gaming TooSoonku:

Welcome!

Welcome to Too Soonkus!

What is Too Soonkus you ask?

The world loves haikus. The world also loves jokes that are...too soon. So why not put them together (besides, of course, a sense of common decency)?

In case you're unaware, a haiku is a form of Japanese poetry. It is comprised of three lines: the first line is 5 syllables, the second is 7 syllables and the third line is 5 syllables.

We're welcome to any suggestions for events that may or may not be too soon to joke about. Just email us at toosoonkus@gmail.com

Thanks, and welcome!
