Trihan, your limerick zest
Has left me fully impressed!
Do go on, my dear,
I'm sure we're all ears
To hear what you come up with next ;D

Trihan

Your short "limitation" is flattering
While all other posters are nattering
It's all been great fun
But I really must run
My feet they will soon be a-pattering

For bed is my next destination
To dream of my next innovation
Five minutes to three
In the morning, oh gee!
The lateness is causing vexation

So I'll bid you adieu, my good friends
This post, much like all good things, ends
But I'll be back tomorrow
So none of your sorrow
And what will I write? That depends!

Sylvr

How about: A yo-yo appreciation fanclub composed entirely of penguins that are drunk on cough syrup .. please?  ;D

Their meeting was soon underway
All the penguins had come out to play
With cough syrup in hand
And a penguin brass band
The yo-yo club elder did say:

"Now pengins hear me, one and all!
Though I'm drunk I'm still having a ball
With my wonderful thing
Plastic toy on a string!"
Then he promptly ran into the wall.

The penguins all stood and they cheered
Though some nastier ones sat and jeered
And they chanted "We love Sylvr!"
...
...
Which wasn't a very good idea in a limerick because nothing rhymes with it, proving once and for all that penguins should never drink cough syrup.

Well, how about The last tryst of Don Juan, the grammar nerd?
I, object.

Dualnames

And to make a last request(I'll try and fight it) :
I got bought off by a flying scottish hero
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)

How about an ORANGE

I couldn't help myself.

Aw...

Well at least allow me to finish it:

The penguins all stood and they cheered
Though some nastier ones sat and jeered
And they chanted "We love Sylvr,
And her sister Pilf'r!
Although they're both kinda weird!"

Didn't we have limericks in the haiku thread for a while?

Anyway, I think others should be able to join in!

Bad rhyming: it may make you cringe
or make your eyebrows combust and singe
But you just have to take it
That I have to fake it
To make anything rhyme with orange




Now, make a limerick with this first line: While out on the Cam in a punt  :=

"Don Juan"

With his grammar skills he scored the chicks
Using heretofore unheard-of tricks
Obfuscating his nouns
Wearing pink dressing gowns
And installing Linux for kicks.

But the grammar nerd's now met his match
She has proven one hell of a catch
She programs assembly
Won singles at Wembley
And to Don Juan she did attach.

So she's ended the days of the rover
His tail-hunting days are now over
By all known statistics
His cunning linguistics
Are just for that woman in Dover.

"Aerowallace's Wallet"

I'd witnessed a horrible crime
I was crapping my pants at the time
Then a blue-painted eye
Dropped down from the sky
And offered me many a dime.

The eye was attached to a Scot
With a fortune my silence was bought
And he wore a kilt too
Was that how he flew?
Well maybe, but probably not.

I asked his name when business ended
"William Wallace." he said then ascended
He faded from view
But this story ain't true
This never occurred, I pretended. :(

------

"Orange"

An orange? By all means, why not?
I'm dying of thirst and it's hot
Squeeze it into a glass
The juice gives me gas
And causes my houseplant to rot.

Oranges, oranges, yay!
They're orange and they're here to stay
I must say that I would
Marry one if I could
Mark my words I will soon find a way.

The thought that I'm cheating occurred
I admit such a thing was inferred
But then you never said
From the line that I read
That orange must be the last word!

Nice try at finishing the limerick, Sylvr. ^_^ If I hadn't gone with the humorous non-limerick ending, it would probably have ended something like...this.

The penguins all stood and they cheered
Though some nastier ones sat and jeered
But they all wound up dead
Overdosed on their med
As the penguin apocalypse neared.

------

By all means SSH, don't let me keep the limerick fun for myself!

Hmm...okay...I don't actually know what that first line means, so I'm going to take a completely random approach to this one.

While out on the Cam in a punt
I spotted some men on the hunt
They were chasing a fox
With some dogs and a box
And I wanted to save the poor runt.

So I got out my elephant gun
And loaded the chamber, what fun!
Blew the men all away
In a merciless spray
Then my fox-saving mission was done.

But just then my poor furry friend fell
Was he okay? I just couldn't tell
I ran to help out
Gave a curse and a shout
'cause I shot the damn fox up as well.

A young man with London as base
thinks the limericks here are quite ace
but seriously dude
I prefer when they're rude
and begins with the name of a place

WARNING: VULGARITY

There was a young man from Nantucket
With a penis so long he could suck it
He said with a grin
As he wiped off his chin
"If my ear was a vag I could $@!% it."

It can be done...

There once was a chap known as Gorringe
Who climbed to the top of Mount Blorenge.
The view from the peak
Was something unique:
A sunset all red, pink and orange.

Ta-da! :)

Buckethead

Pink Unicorn goes on a quest...

Stupot

A unicorn born in a stable
Was destined for legend and fable.
To embark on a quest
From the East to the West,
Only he had been deemed to be able.

So when he reached his coming of age
He was visited by the town sage.
"Set off tonight,
Good luck, it's all right,
But don't return 'til you have the last page."

But our hero was easily caught
He was pink, therefore easy to spot.
So they threw him in Jail,
And chucked him a pail,
And left him there to rot.
