What is a lifeku?

A lifeku is a haiku about daily life. For those who are unfamiliar with haiku, it is a form of Japanese poetry usually about nature, "profound," and formatted in 3 lines of 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables. Feel free to check out some famous haikus if you still don't get it.

All of you have this friend. Maybe they're not a friend but more like a leftover acquaintance from your high school group or someone you just can't seem to get rid of, like hard water stains or shingles or chiggers. Or anything else that's really unpleasant. But for some reason you just can't bring yourself to delete them from your Facebook and tell them to F-off, so you reluctantly agree (after many wall comments and messages) to go for a drink and "catch up on old times" [wretch] when:

Lazy ass moocher
Quit going to the bathroom
When the check arrives

I swear, every group of friends has someone everyone hates and talks about behind his/her back.

ooohh...I know who that one is inspired by! I say cut the fucker out of your life. They weren't a part of it before you accepted them as a friend on facebook, I don't think it will make a difference. Of course, the super obnoxious people will send you a message asking why you deleted them...

@eC: um, that's not exactly what I meant... I was more talking about that annoying person you can't get rid of, not so much pretending to be someone's friend and talking behind their back...

@Meemo: whoa, rage much? I'm quoting you later on "cut the fucker out of your life" LOL

@The Self-Deprechaun: Who's Phil?
