Having a distinctly average weekend / Evidently Devops town

[hirez]

The fucking site is fucking slow
the fucking code's got fucking holes
the fucking tag is fucking wrong
the fucking diff is fucking long
the fucking distro's fucking old
the fucking coffee's fucking cold
the fucking mood is fucking down
everywhere in devops town

The fucking server's fucking crashed
the fucking console's fucking ash
the fucking disks are fucking full
of fucking logs of sweet fuck-all
the fucking code's in fucking swap
the fucking db's fucking hot
you fucking look a fucking clown
here in fucking devops town

The fucking storage fucking died
the fucking switch is fucking fried
the fucking contract's fucking lost
there's fucking shouting from the boss
the fucking parts are fucking late
you fucking wait you fucking wait
you fucking want to fucking drown
when you fucking work in devops town.

Yep, made me laugh out loud! Love it. Is it your work?

It's, um, heavily inspired by John Cooper-Clarke's 'Evidently Chickentown'

Even before I saw this comment your pome read itself in my head in that peculiar JCC nasal whine.

Splendid stuff.

JCC's pome is based on a WW1 navy song: https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/~tf/poem24.html (https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/~tf/poem24.html)

The version on 'Snap, Crackle & Bop' was slightly more true to the original in that in that most of the swear words were bloodys, not fuckings. But when JCC performs it now, he puts in the full F-load:
