    This isn’t an aneurysm, its a just a somewhat mistyped, rough rhyme.

    Roses are red,

    I call my dad pops,

    If I see a weeb lewd a loli…

    I’m calling the cops.

    Lines 2 and 4 rhyme at the end, the syllabic count per line isn’t perfectly symmetrical, but it doesn’t take too much effort to deliver aloud as a stupid joke version of the classic rhyme.

    ‘lewd’ is being used as a verb instead of an adjective.

    Not everyone in the internet posts things with a physical keyboard, the mistakes could all be explained by autocorrect.

    ‘Are’ vs ‘or’, ‘I’ getting ‘like’ appended to it, ‘I see’ getting half duplicated… autocorrect does things like this all the time if you type quickly.

    Take all that into account, and it is not completely incoherent gibberish word salad.

      It is also likely a victim of the annoying way reddit deals with single new lines because at least from my memory on my phone if you only hit enter once to make a new line it will just put both lines together into a single one.

      Also the repetition of see a see a is the kind of thing I often do on my phone keyboard accidentally when trying to edit things, just usually catch it.

        It’s called Markdown. If you know how to use it, it’s very convenient, but if not, it can cause all kinds of unexpected effects. It’s also the reason that **test** is formatted as test. You can often force new lines by ending the line with two spaces or a backslash character. Let’s test:

        This is a line
        And this is another line

        In this case it was a backslash character. So what I typed is:

        This is a line\
        And this is another line

        With spaces:

        This is a line
        And this is another line

          Huh, didn’t know that part of markdown, cool! I knew Lemmy used it and a fair amount of other common things in it but not the new line stuff. Learn something new every day, thanks!
