Before getting to today's subject, I'll provide links on two other matters. (Sub Pub covers anything of interest to members of the Substack community, whether fun, serious, or practical.)
This Twitter thread includes examples of newsletters that took the dare, plus an invite to the Discord server for Substack writers where the dare began.
By embedding the tweet above, I too have met the challenge. (Cheating, you say? A violation of the spirit of the dare? I am offended. A duel with snakes at dawn!)
So the question is: How might you put the rhyming snake-armed guy in your newsletter?1 🤔
You included the man with arms like a snake
And yet you did not, of this dare, fully partake
This post does not fill me with joy,
Try again with a snakeman, not a snakeboy.
The snake man rhymes;
The church bell chimes.
From here to Seattle
Hush falls on the crowd
Then someone shouts loud
"IT'S A RAP BATTLE!!"
