from here (thanks Lesley!):
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    None shall pass without formally defining the ontological
meta-semantic thingies of their domain something-or-others!
HACKER:
    What?
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    None shall pass without using all sorts of semantic
meta-meta-meta-stuff that we will invent Real Soon Now!
HACKER:
    I have no quarrel with you, good Sir Knight, but I must get my
work done on the Web. Stand aside!
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    None shall  find anything on the Internet without semantic metadata!
HACKER:
    So be it!
HACKER and SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Aaah!, hiyaah!, etc.
    [HACKER chops the SEMANTIC KNIGHT's first argument off by building
efficent statistical/heuristic search engines]
HACKER:
    Now stand aside, worthy adversary.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    'Tis but a scratch.
HACKER:
    A scratch? Your argument has been cut off!
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    No, it isn't.
HACKER:
    Well, what's that, then?
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    I've had worse.  None shall have an effective syndication network
without RDF Site Summaries!
    [clang]
    Hiyaah!
    [clang]
    Aaaaaaaah!
    [HACKER chops the SEMANTIC KNIGHT's second argument off by
building the blogs/RSS/Aggregators/Bloglines/etc. network ]
HACKER:
    Victory is mine!
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Have at you!
    [kick]
HACKER:
    Eh. You are indeed brave, Sir Knight, but the fight is mine.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Oh, had enough, eh?
HACKER:
    Look, you stupid &^%$# You've got no arguments left.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Yes, I have.
HACKER:
    Look!
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Just a flesh wound.
    [kick]
HACKER:
    Look, stop that.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    You won't be able to get machine-machine services without an
ontology to formally describe all the relationships!
    [kick]
HACKER:
    Right!
    [whop]
    [HACKER chops the SEMANTIC KNIGHT's third argument off by building
SOAPy and RESTful services with only implicit semantic descriptions]
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Right. I'll do you for that!
HACKER:
    You'll what?
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Come here!
HACKER:
    What are you going to do, bleed on me?
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    I'm invincible!
HACKER:
    You're a looney.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    The SEMANTIC Knight always triumphs! Have at you! Come on, then. I
have an battalion of KR theorists on my side
    [whop]
    [HACKER chops the SEMANTIC KNIGHT's last argument off with an 
army of actual code writers]
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Oh? All right, we'll call it a draw.
HACKER:
    Come on, folks, let's go.
SEMANTIC KNIGHT:
    Oh. Oh, I see. Running away, eh? You yellow ^&^%$s! Come back here
and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!
