We were looking at magnetic poetry words on a public bathroom wall (true story, insert TempDB joke here) and thought, “You know what would be really awesome? If there was one of these for databases.”
So we made ’em.
Each of us put together our own favorite database words, so we each have our own sheet.
To get one, just track us down at a conference or user group. This week, Doug & Kendra will be at the PASS Summit in Seattle, and I’ll be at SQL Intersection in Vegas. The more of us you meet, the more words you’ll be able to work with, since we’ll each carry our own sheets.
Share your favorites with us on Instagram or Twitter with the tag #SQLpoetry. We’ll pick out our favorites and send you a little something special.

I know exactly which bathroom you are talking about too, right down the hall from the Sausage Room.
Hey Brent,
I haven’t gotten to meet you or your team in person and will not be able to attend these sessions in person (tried to at MS Ignite this year, but was swamped). Is there a way we can purchase these from you. I think they’d be an awesome addition to my whiteboard at my desk.
Thanks!
Christian – thanks, glad you like our work! No, we’re not offering these for sale right now. We’re just not really set up to do e-commerce for physical goods – shipping is quite a pain in the rear.
Ha no worries, every SQL Saturday we have in Atlanta I bring up your team to anyone that I work with. Thanks again for everything that you and your team do!
I too would buy one of these….
Aww man…two days too late! I would have hit up Jeremiah at his hilarious dynamic sql class at Portland SQL Saturday. Class was great, SQL Saturday was great, keep up the good work guys!
Nice. Toys we can safely have in the post-diskette age.
“I ORDERed DATA on the CLOUD
WITH FLOATS and INTS ON VALUES and ROWS
WHEN ALL at ONCE my db ploughed
A host with poor TRANSACTION integrity…”
Love that game!!
