Friday Fun with Limericks

There once was a farm boy from Nantucket
He cleaned the barn with a well-used bucket

He said to his wife
"I hate this life,
tomorrow I'm going to chuck it"

So he boarded a boat
with his favorite goat
and off they went on a junket...

Ok, I am sooo sorry for that. Laypersons have no business messing with poetry in the GWJ forums and should be dealt with swiftly and severely.

I seem to remember there being a Limerick contest on this forum once, but I can''t remember who won.

Haiku I remember. I don''t recall a lymerick thread though.

It was a haiku contest, and Spot778 won. I got second place though! It''s how I have this wicked sweet avatar.

LOL, haiku it was.

*prepares self to be tarred and feathered*

Between this thread and that this place is becoming far too classy.

What next? Puffy shirts for ole GWJ what''s his name up there?

There once was this guy Druidpeak
On limerick threads he''d misspeak
When linked to the haikus
He thought he''d be misued
Gaining some plumage and beak

Haw!

There once was a man richyrambo
A classy guy who liked to sew
He carried a cup
Labeled shut the fu*k up
And wore puffy shirts, yes we all know

And now its back to the closet I go!

There once was a game called CounterStrike
With a wonderful feature called ""in game mic""
Unfortunately for ourselves
It''s filled with small elves
Yelling ""gey haX0r i wudda pwned u like...""

There''s a place I know called Gamers With Jobs
Filled with Lawyers, Programmers, Students and Slobs
Please don''t find me a jerk
Cause I spend time at work
Talkin bout Games and the lastest celeb boob jobs

(okay so i used ""jobs"" twice. sue me. it was either that or something to do with Calvin and Hobbes. what the heck else rhymes with ""jobs""?)

Gobs of mobs.

There once was a fella named Roo
Who couldn''t find a rhyme or two
We called him a hack
told him ""a thesaurus you lack""
and let him get caught by the grue.

There once was a guy named Mateo
Who surfed Gamers with Jobs all the day-o
he spent too much time
arranging games online
and now goes to unemployment for his mayo.

**applause**

Nice, mateo.

I still like my CS one, though...
