Yes... Yes... Take debate...

A clash of intellectual beliefs, or just plain bitchin'? Aye. Tis which I speak of is the feared debate. Alright, so a debate is bad enough, but then add literature into the equation, and you get an exothermic reaction that doesn't know when to stop.

It all happened when Ms Adeline Koh (the Awesome) declared a debate, in which three groups would battle for supremacy, or just slap fight, their way to argue for three different art forms. The three lucky winners are: Poetry, Drama and Prose.

Prose is novels, short stories, wills... you know, anything that's not poem-ish.

Team Poetry:
Samuel
Kylie
Kylie
Kylie (she counts as three because she's so imba)
Jensen (Yes, the inquisitive Jensen)
Leon (Not the coke Leon, not the horny one, the other one. The relatively eighing scale friendly one)
Jie Hong (Shut up, all of you)

Team Drama:
Brenda
Some guy I don't know
Some girl I don't know
Enough people

Team Prose:
Kenneth
Andy
Kenneth and Andy
Rashidah
Darryl

So here was the lineup:

Jensen did the intro. I must say he sort of flipped a bit. It was a little unnerving. Somehow, we initially thought there was the dying obligation to accept every single POI (Point of Information, aka bullet) sent your way. Jensen did just that, unfortunately, since no one knew, and that threw the intro off balance. He did apologise, and we did accept the mone- apology.

Leon promoted the unique factors of poetry. This includes taking vocal effects and rhythm into consideration and what not. Leon is an excellent marksman.

Leon 10
POIs 0

I addressed the problems with poetry. Very shitty. Couldn't concentrate what with suddenly having to get up there. Oh well...

And the rebuttal round was just chaos.

Don't take the gag out until Jun Yup's settled down a litte.

okay. There were no definitions of the word "superior", and there was complete chaos. So much so that I was able to shoot down the Drama team. (after recovering from my Kenneth wounds)

Their intial argument:
Poetry can be less easily understood than Drama, and therefore the reader will get nothing out of it. Drama may not be fully understoof but they may just get the storyline, which is better than not getting anything at all.

Later...: (They were feeling nice):
There is no point in reading something and only understanding part of it.

Whoops. Own goal there.

Man of the Match: Jensen, for putting the goalkeeper to shame. Thank god WE have a subsitute.

Sorry Jensen, but you did score some own goals there.

Shall not mention anymore. Spam tomorrow.
