Dude, I just thought it was funny, as one of the most common tactics on SongFight! is to vocode the vocals, since many of us here can't sing so great. It's like somebody saying "Hey, maybe I'll rap! I bet no one's done that before!" Or "I'll use instrument XYZ, I bet that's never been done before." I recognize you weren't saying that no one had done it before, but many gimmicks have been done so much here that they'd sound played out regardless of whether someone did it last week. Anyway, whatever...

19. Being angry, in general. Once you've been around for a while you learn about things like
cats in sinks which you can use to keep yourself calm and happy.

Songfight Drinking Rule No 24:
If your song gets zero votes - you have to run around your computer 3 times with your trousers around your ankles
Songfight Drinking Rule No 24(a):
If you do 3 zero vote songs in a row - you must role up your lyric sheet, light a match and perform The Dance of the Flaming Arseholes
