Steemit Open Mic Week #65 - All I want for Christmas is Steem (Christmas Parody!)

in openmic •  7 years ago  (edited)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of my open mic friends!

Earlier today @raised2b and I went through and re-wrote Mariah Carey’s classic song “All I want for Christmas is You” with a little crypto twist. Ok... who am I kidding? He came up with 99% of the lines because he’s witty like that!

Here are the new lyrics:

All I want for Christmas is Steem

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
There’s only one block chain that interests me
I just want a blog of my own
And comments, upvotes or hello’s
Make my wish come true oh
All I want for Christmas is Steem

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need, and I
Don't care about the presents
There’s only one block chain that interests me
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With fiat on Christmas day

I just want a blog of my own
And comments, upvotes or hello’s
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is Steem

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow, and I
I’m just gonna keep on blogging
Hoping my Steem power grows

I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake
To hear those magic reindeer click

'Cause I just want your upvote
Comments, re-steems and hello’s
What more can I do
Oh, Baby all I want for Christmas is Steem

All the fiat’s burning
So quickly everywhere
And the sound of banker’s
Crying fills the air

But all of us are singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me
The crypto I really need
Won't you please bring my steem back to me

I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my block chain
Growing more and more and more

I just want a blog of my own
And comments, upvotes or hello’s
Make my wish come true oh
Baby all I want for Christmas is Steem

All I want for Christmas is you, Steem

Merry Christmas everyone. ❤️

I am going back tomorrow and as often as I can.

I’m not really sure the context here, but I don’t really have sufficient SP to deal with large scale voting abuse. The most I can do is add or remove around $7.00 with a full 100% upvote or downvote.

I do continue to discuss with a lot of people behind the scenes on ways we can update the platform to make it more fair. If you have any suggestions, I’m happy to hear.
