I once was a clueless young noder
And then I turned into a voter
Now I spend all my days
In an Everything haze
And mutter 'bout pop vs. soda.

(You mean this wasn't a limerick challenge?)

I will take up the limerick challenge:

I once was a clueless young noder
More clueless than a C++ coder
But then my nodes became cooled
And the Everything crowd drooled
When they read my writeup on Giorgio Moroder.

(I guess I will need to add something about the guy now, that's poetical freedom for you :-)

There's many a clueless young noder
Whose grammar is like that of Yoda.
'Sentence structure eschew;
The way forward for you
Is to write like an Intercal coder.'

Yay, limericks!

I once was a clueless young noder
Whose nodes had a terrible odor
Until html
I learned pretty well
And now I'm a competent coder

I once was a clueless young noder
And became a high-level voter.
But ego's a vice
Which comes with a price:
I'm now a shameless self-promoter.

Peace out, y'all.

Never one to pass up a challenge...

I once was a clueless young noder
A trolling, newbie freeloader.
Well, now I am scorned,
Downvoted and warned,
(They call me the 'Borging foreboder'.)
