Originally a Tumblr link, this is what it says today

So many parodies gone, like plums from an icebox. Time to Donate to Internet Archive

That Jezebel link

Cool URIs don’t ever change, Jezebel.

Which amusingly enough, not all the parodies are there anymore, many are not found because the were originally posted on the service formerly known as Twitter.

But at this point I can still see there is one up above stealing kryptonite from the batcave, which I shall now quote tweet — like so!:

The article referenced above is still there, still full of swiped goodies, at McSweeney’s!

One of our first “So Much Depends” parodies, parodying another well-known William Carlos Williams poem “A Red Wheelbarrow”, this one from A Haven For Vee, which is still there

Which I thought was great until I went to the front page of the blog

This is Abby from Little Birdie Blessings, with some news about our dear friend Vee. On Sunday, July 23, 2023, Vee peacefully left this earth for her Heavenly reward. For four years, she valiantly fought the battle of breast cancer, until the Lord called her home. Her family has provided a link to her obituary below.

I guess the scoundrel has been stealing fruit long enough that this is bound to happen still an unexpected news. I do like that her blog is still there.

Another 404, with a really nice design and message

And unfortunately the Internet Archive couldn’t help in this case either

Well that was the end of this round of fruit-theft, thanks to that greedy little rapscallion — The Scoundrel
