#4 Hello Muddah, hello Zayde
Here we are at Zucka's Meta
VR's betta than elections
'Specially when it clamps down on Insurrections

Zuck elected Plugs 'n' Rogaine
Half a billion: it's a bargain
You remember Merrick Ferret
He's got a list of terrorists and he will share it

Now I don't want this should scare ya
But they hired this guy Beria
You remember our traditions?
They're organizing Search & Destroy expeditions

Take me home, oh Muddah, Zayde
Take me home, I hate this Meta
Don't leave me out in the forest where
I might get eaten by a bear

Take me home, I promise I will
Not make noise, or mess the house with
Trumpish boys, oh please don't make me stay
I've lived a year in just one day

Apologies to Allan Sherman

#11 "What is the definition of meta in gaming?
In the world of gaming, meta is used in two ways. Meta can be used as an acronym for “most effective tactics available,” and calling something “meta” means that it’s an effective way to achieve the goal of the game, whether it’s to beat other players or beat the game itself.
