The Obligatory Limericks Game Reincarnated
help
And so it begins....

Rosie
Eventually I'll get down the pub
Raak
And sit down with a pint and some grub
penelope
For convivial chatter
Stevie
And a steaming hot platter
Pablo
But the cost? Aye, there's the rub....
Stevie
Stop rubbing my platter, you swine!
KagomeShuko
And get me a glass full of wine!
Software
I need a drink
Chalky
Because I'm on the brink
Rosie
Of becoming seriously anodyne.
Tuj
Although it was somewhat contrived
Raak
I wrote, "Then the dragons arrived."
Simons Mith
I shoehorned it in
Rosie
Wrong game, but no sin
KagomeShuko
However, I felt quite deprived
penelope
Let's start something fresh, I feel keen
muttleee
And I'm tired of my normal routine
Simons Mith
I'm gonna dress up
Rosie
And drink from the cup
Stevie
Filled to the brim with Poitín
Stevie
I've filled up the tank with spud peelings
Raak
For the sake of my partner's green feelings
KagomeShuko
My exhaust smells like chips
penelope
On the shortest of trips
Simons Mith
So poo to the oil giants' dealings
Software
That's it! I'm off to the pub
CdM
To sit down with a pint and some grub
KagomeShuko
I'll talk to my friends
Stevie
Of how I got The Bends
Simons Mith
A gig at the Bachelors' Club
Pablo
There's an old Irish saying, you know,
Stevie
It blithers about yellow snow
Chalky
But I don't understand
Simons Mith
Isn't yellow snow sand?
Raak
It's uranium — eat it and glow!
Chalky
neat
Chalky
This June day will henceforth be called
Tuj
"The Day I Began To Go Bald"
Stevie
For 'tis sad to relate
Rosie
That the dread chrome-dome state
Simons Mith
Cannot any more be forestalled
Chalky
clapclapclapclapclap
Simons Mith
I think I'll invest in a hat
Stevie
A topper? Or something more flat?
Tuj
I'd like to convey
Lovely metre and wording on the back half of that last one
Chalky
That I'm no old roué
Raak
And have young, modern fashion down pat.
Pablo
In fact, I was once called a fop
penelope
My gaudy cravats were
de trop
Chalky
So much so I became
Raak
A pantomime Dame
Stevie
Emigrated, and now lead the GOP
Rosie
A joke's a joke but that one is a f****** disgrace.

Software
I'm camp so I'll dress up in drag
Rosie
And ponce round the house with a fag
Chalky
I do this with Pride
Pablo
But in fact, deep inside,
KagomeShuko
I desperately wave a white flag.
CdM
The daylength has now reached its min / The daylength has now reached its max
Hidden text
Traditional solstice limerick, bifurcated to avoid the appalling and blatant hemisphericentricity that too often plagues these servers.
Chalky
Enlightenment can now begin / And my carpets could do with a vax
Raak
O-ò-o-o-òmmm / There's nowt I like more
penelope
*deeper voice*
O-ò-o-o-òmmm / Than a squeaky clean floor
Software
Now the nights begin drawing in / And my rubbish neatly in sacks
CdM
[Software] Did you just
restore
the hemisphericentrism that (see my hidden comment) I worked so hard to eliminate??
Radox The Green
The world seems to be upside-down
Raak
Kings are scorned, and their Fools wear the crown
CdM
So the knights, they draw in
Chalky
Losing their will to win
[Have to agree with CdM, Softers - not your best work]
Pablo
No wonder - we're lead by a clown
