Don't give up. I'm expecting great things from you. I expect one at 2am Grenwich mean time tomorrow.

I'll order a mixed cherry Coke. Do you happen to know the portions, syrup to Coke?

Yes, you can. Pretend you're silly drunk.

has it got to start off with "there once was a" ???

Um I thinks so but you can be a renegade experimental limerick writer if you want.

Screw the rules.

well that seems to be the simplest way to do it. so.

there once was a girl named lilly
she seemed to be quite silly
for what she could write
was really quite trite
and was written willy-nilly

No idea. I would imagine it's something like 5 to 1. I always just say, "Could I get a cherry coke?" And they look at me funny, pour a coke, pour some syrup, occassionally throw on a cherry and straw, and slide it over. Usually about $3. It's always good.

They add a damned cherry. That's funny.

experimental limerick #1

A new poster came to the board
Introducing themself to the hoard
Someone called them a twat
And they left just like that
Because keyboards are sharper than swords

Lovely!

You had me up until the interjection of a moral message in the last line.

These last two are great. Well done Can-can-Tank and A-caustic.

I know. I cringed, but quite honestly it was all that rhymed.

how about...

And they left just like that
Making off like a swindled old whore.

I wanted to say something like "And with their free time, they probably scored" but I couldn't fit the meter until just now.

It's best to conclude with a strong image.

there once was a man from nantucket
who's cock was so long he could suck it
while wiping his chin
he said with a grin
if my ear was a cunt i would fuck it

Har har.

Sigh. She wins again.

She outclasses us all every time.

There once was an arse called Max
Who refused to pay any income tax.
The government visited him one day
And took all his money away,
Now he can't buy two apple macs.

For a thread nobody wanted to do, you're doing well. Four pages and counting.

i can't take credit for that one unfortunately.

I'm glad. I knew it would catch on though, it's just one of those things that gradually gets people interested. I knew I had to go against the haters because I knew I was doing the right thing.

Yeah, I think I first heard that when I was 8.

I had a feeling that was the case.

Well, this is inspiring. I might now have the courage to start my "WWBD?" thread. (What Would Bond Do?)

Another attempt at dry wit
With a little self-referential bit
The crown I'll defend
Just wait for the end
Ah fuck it this limerick's shit

Ha ha ha! Good!

I knew you were a liar and a deceiver.

Do it!!!! Be true to yourself! and other such platitudes.

1 2 3 4
i declare a thumb war
5 6 7 8
you are good
but i am great



not really a limerick is it?

There once was a prissy bitch called Cantankerous
Who on a Thursday wasn't so garrulous
That she stole someone's limerick
About an absurdly large dick
And everyone thought it was scandolous.

There once was a young lady named Hooty
Who would alway sing rooty-tooty.
She couldn't get fruity
Without her friend Booty
But ever was she such a cutey.

There once was a saucey dish name of Cantankerous
Whose antics did make us wish to spank her ass
But then she's so cute
And precious to boot
That all you want to do is see her tank-top shirter-less.

:eek:

Wow. That was certainly a strong ending.

Yes, I think it's effective, don't you?

there once was a man named ramone
who couldn't write a song on his own
and i can't fucking rhyme
and i don't have the time
to sit here and write limericks, asshole
