The Wrong Planet Limerick Thread!

Post Reply New Topic

If you want to use usernames in your limerick, go ahead!
From perspective, I don't think most members would care.

There is a 54th member named Ana
Who likes to eat bananas
One day she ate one for lunch
It wasn't very fun eating a whole bunch!
So she decided to give the rest
To her friend named Hannah!

'Tis a favourite project of mine,
A new value of pi to assign.
I would fix it at 3,
For it's simpler, you see,
Than 3 point 1 4 1 5 9

A young schizophrenic named Struther,
Who learned of the death of his Brother,
Said, "I know that its bad,
But I don't feel too sad.
After all, I still have each other."

The limerick packs laughs anatomical
Into space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean -
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

A limerick fan from Australia
regarded his work as a failure:
his verses were fine
until the fourth line
?

This one hearkens back to the days when your home gas meter was read monthly by an actual human! Truly one of the most literate of limericks.

There once was a gas man named Peter
Who one day while reading a meter
Torched a leak with his light
He rose out of sight
And as anyone who knows anything about poetry can tell you, he also ruined the meter

Who'd have thought that this topic would get my first post. I'm a newbie here, learning about this new Aspergers diagnosis of mine.

There once was a thread old and moldy,
when in strode post master Sinsboldly,
With a stroke of a key,
the words did run free,
and he ruled this new thread oh so totally!

A man called AnonymousAnonymous

Claimed 'Aspergers' to be quite synonymous

He looked up the word

(Which he really hadn't heard)

And found out he meant quite eponimous!

On the internet snooping around,
Wrong Planet Eeyore had found.
With a bit of a boast,
he launched his first post,
and a limerick young Eeyore did sound!

With nothing better to do,
young Alex with his yellow shoe,
his mind firmly set
started Wrong Planet Dot Net
and out of his hands it did flew!

Hey! No one said it had to be good grammar... right?

alternatives...

While looking for pastimes quite new,
young Alex with his yellow shoe,
his mind firmly set,
started WP Dot Net
then cried, "MY GOD what did I do?"

A man named Alex from DC
started a clubhouse for free.
Then the Aspies all came
who could they blame?
And so began.. W.P.!

With fingers aflurry so fast
Over 10,000 posts he did pass
A WP slave
he typed to his grave
And herein lies the man... Quartermass!

There once was an Aspie, a guy
Exceedingly smart but shy.
He'd agree sex is fun,
But once he's begun,
He's ashamed to open his fly.

From a lil' blue house out in Humboldt
Came limericks quick as a thunderbolt
Now here I am late at night
For silly rhymes to write
And I wonder have I joined a cult?

From Finland an Aspy named Sand
an expert at sleight-of-hand,
typed limericks with ease,
but his boss he did not please,
for his design skills were what was in demand!

From Alaska an Aspy named Reika,
Fancied herself a true winter biker,
Down the paths she did set,
with a bit of regret,
She had dressed herself only in lycra!

OR, if I mispronounced your name...

From Alaska an Aspy named Reika,
Said, "my life couldn't be any bleaker!",
"But the snows they shall fall,
and I won't mind at all,
Because I am an Alaskan Winter Freaker!"
