SOME LIMERICKS

This is my absolute favourite limerick of all time. And to prove it I WENT to Aberystwyth and did exactly what it says!
(Well what else can you do there?)


Nostalgic in old Aberystwyth,
I sat down and made out a list, with
     The names of the rude
     Lovely ladies I'd screwed,
And the chaps I'd gone out and got pissed with.

RON RUBIN


There was an old person of Gretna
Who rushed down the crater of Etna
     Screaming 'Someone inside
     Has bartered my bride
And I'm sure it's that maniac Smetana.'

PHILIP A. NICHOLSON


A frigid young lady from Gloucester
Once had an affair on the coucester
     'She's cold as gazpacho,'
     Complained her muchacho,
'But I'm doing my best to defrocester.'

RON RUBIN


The limerick, rhymeless variety,
Tries to avoid being indecent,
     It chances its luck,
     By not using the word 'damn',
But the mind reads what the eye doesn't hear.

V. ERNEST COX


There once was a bard of Hong Kong
Who thought limericks were too long.
