If someone was to ask if you liked haikus, would you reply?;
A) Yes, but I couldn’t possibly eat a whole one…
B) No! – I can’t stand those martial arts, and someone might get injured, surely!...
C) Aren’t they a form of poetry in three lines of 5,7, and 5 syllables (often lightly comical) originally developed in 17th century Japan, occasionally incorporating a word or phrase that symbolizes weather related phenomenon or one of the seasons? ..,.

Exciting stuff, eh?
