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.

[Cantankerous]

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

[Lurker]

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

[gmku]

Screw the rules.

[Cantankerous]

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.

[gmku]

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

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

[Lurker]

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

[acousticrock87]

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

[gmku]

how about...

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

[acousticrock87]

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.

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.
