I really hope Jonathan S. gets to read this......
This must've taken a long time to do.... 5-5-5
I agree on the effort you must have put into this parody. However, the timing was way off. It did make sense, albeit a little bit, so You get a 4 on the overall from me. If you could have gotten it to rhyme it would have been all 5's.
