FYI: Starting January of 2020, the enforcement of rhyme and meter will change.
Hey BTB!
We wanted to let the community know ahead of time that the strictness of Rule 3 will increase drastically after New Years. This will make lots of you very happy, and some of you less happy, but it will be happening to improve the quality of content on this subreddit, so in turn the removal rate will likely increase considerably. Soon, there will be new guidelines on how to best make True BTB submissions, so look out for those, and ensure you read them before submitting. This will be in addition to the new moderators we will be adding, so stay tuned for that as well.
Thank y'all for sticking around!
-The BTB mod team

Thank you, fucking hell, I can't stand the horrible meter.
Agreed. It defeats the entire purpose of the sub to ignore the meter of the standard "roses are red" poem. Without the proper meter, beginning it with "roses are red" is absolutely pointless and adds nothing to the post, might as well have just posted it in r/funny and not bothered with it here.
Agreed 1,000%
