No post 
is ever too old.

But... 
In the fold
Between old and mold,
debate has commenced
from coast to coast,
during wine and roast,
that rages like the price of gold
<>
-- and...
<wince/>
 a popular argument has been found:

If the post supports a fence
That doesn't make sense
And hence,
such fence 
is falling down,

then such a fence,
may not exist
to serve as such a noun.
</>

<_

It may wish to be a sound,
or perhaps a clown.
It could catch you like a cold.
Or merely be the tag for bold.

Maybe

The fence should be the whole world round.

Or

Perhaps the fence 
Isn't worth a pence
and should be left to fall to the ground.
Then your post interferes with a fate already bound.

/>

So if such a post
could, at most,
only bring a frown,

then without further adieu,
you should certainly certainly construe 
/any/ message you find new
as advice to tone your post down.

<_-_/>

At least,
That's what I'm told
about making un-cold
the posts of old.

But 
I'm
not 
sure 
I'm 
sold.
