Poetaster

An amateurish poet. Usually teenagers prone to angst. Additionally, most poetasters believe that they are incredibly talented and that they are the only ones who understand their emo-ness and tendencies toward self-injury.

Dude, I hate Writer's Workshop. It's really just a big Poetasters Anonymous meeting in there. And the instructor sucks ass.

Lennart Poettering

A somewhat well-known author of surreal horror fiction from Germany, Lennart Poettering is mostly known for writing overly long and confusing works such as Pulsations of Autophilia (a tragedy about a sluggish autistic teenager who is murdered while fucking his uncle's Porsche and comes back as a ghost to seek vengeance) and Systems Down (about a server administrator who finds himself locked in the server room after closing time with a horrible, memory-corrupting abomination).

I picked up this new book at Barnes and Noble, but it says that Lennart Poettering is required reading so I'm taking it back.

poetterware

Poetterware is a type of software mostly found on Linux systems, for example systemd, pulseaudio, policykit, consolekit, xdg-open, colord and more.
This software generally works very well and solves really complicated problems, but if it doesn't behave the way it should, you will have a hard time debugging the issue (e.g. via dbus), working around it (by quick hacks) or use alternative software. It may be written by Lennart Poettering or the freedesktop foundation or other participants in the ecosystem.

You're using Gentoo Linux with systemd? Yes, although it's poetterware it works very well for me.

Pokémaster

I wanted be the very best,
Like no one ever was.
To catch them was my real quest,
To train them was my cause.

I traveled across the land,
Searching far and wide.
Each Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside

Pokemon, (i caught them all) its you and me
I know its my destiny
Pokemon, oh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend

Pokemon, (I caught them all) a heart so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Po-ke-mon, i caught 'em all

Every challenge along the way
With courage I have faced
I have battled every day
To claim my rightful place

Come with me, the time is right
There's no better team
Arm in arm we'll win the fight
It's always been our dream

Pokemon!

It's you and me
I know it's my destiny

Pokemon!

Oh, you're my best friend,
In a world we must defend.

Pokemon!

A heart so true.
Our courage will pull us through.
You teach me and I'll teach you.

Breanne Ellis was the true and mighty victor in the realm of Pokemon. She was the Pokémaster.

Hi levels of testosterone within a social media post.

The replys were full of postosterone! It quickly turned into a pissing contest.
