A limeric has the following scheme :
a
a
b
b
a

Example :

There was an old man from Peru
who dreamed he was eating his shoe.
He woke up in the night
with a terrible fright
and found out that his dream had come true.

Now , while I was waiting for CptWhite to join me on ICQ , I made up 2 limerics :


The TBP modder :
---------------------------
There was young modder called White
you modded every ship in sight.
For his work he payed the price
when did things more than twice !
Then he saw things in a different light.

The Centauri :
---------------------
There was a young Centauri on Earth
Whose hair stood up since his birth
Whereever he came
he put poodles at shame .
And he did this from New York to Perth


Limerics start with "There was a guy ( from somewhere...) "

Crusade:
There once was a man named Straczynski,
who kept control of his scripts 'till infinity,
his constant control,
ticked of the network troll,
so that's why there's no Crusade on the TV.

Dedicated to the bastards at TNT.

with my old trusty wooden hammer

You know, misspelling grammar is the best EVER.
Because, if you do it, you can say "Well that was the joke!" and if you don't, well, you didn't misspell a word.

Due to recent events :

There was a young hobbit from Bree
who sat the whole week in a tree
he came back to the ground
when he definitely found
it was about ****ing time to pee.

Im not good at any of this rhyming stuff and with a bad combination of no sense of humor i stand and laugh at others with a larger cranium then mine and laugh, despite my inability to understand the joke.
