I'm Not a Robot
#1

With apologies:

... Or go to a show -- look down your row
The lights are on -- find people you know
There's I'mNotaRobot clicking with his mouse
Around FiveHundredTimesAlready
And Ol'IdentifytheStorefronts listening to HigherthantheNosebleeds say
"I haven't scored any, but I'm willing to stand there."
And there's GaveUpatTenTen (he knows when things are done)
Next to that girl, CradlingHerCreditCard, whispering,
"This might be our last show." Come!
Check it out! There's FaceValue and FloorSeats -- together again for the very first time
And TicketmasterHasFailedMeButStubHubHasn't
Next to IUsedtoStandinLine, next to CorporateSeatsforFree.
Hey, even NothingAfterPhantomPower is here and IDon'tWanttoTalkAboutWhatIPaidforThese, she's here too.

Go to a show. Look down your row
While the lights are on
Find people you know:
Seeing'EmAll's yelling
To NeedsaSingleforLondon and
AmexMyAss points out
IsSideViewOkay? to PlatinumIndeed

Go to a show
Hip Lovers under a full moon in trust
It's not the presale your don't like, it's the ticket distribution you don't trust
You're in the right place ...

I'm laugh-crying at work and getting stared at.

You were the inspiration for "Seeing'EmAll" by the way.

I've been singing "I'm not a robot" to the tune of "Yer not the ocean" for two days.

I guess I refreshed my browser too many times over the last 2 days. I'm locked out of ticketmaster with forbidden error 403. Says it thinks I'm a bot. I'm not a bot!!!! Hope I can get this cleared up asap.

I'm pretty sure there's a pic of berries with whipped cream, that it insisted I include with all the "ice cream" - I'm looking to appeal this one somehow.

Yeah, there was a "bread" one that had me scratching my head. And a lot of fine distinction between what's a tree and what's a bush.

Great poem, definitely captured how we've all been feeling over the last few days!

And in case you all don't know, there actually IS an I'm Not A Robot song, by Marina And The Diamonds. I really don't care for the rest of her songs (saw her at Field Trip last year), but I can listen to this one on repeat endlessly:
