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.

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

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

Screw the rules.

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.

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

Lovely!

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

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

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

how about...

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

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.

there once was a man from nantucket
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.
