The unappreciated limerick

[UsuallyPresent]

Once there were Lit-erates
Who wondered just what fits
With a wicked grin -
Knobby? Spiked? Fat or thin?
And just said, "If it fits it sits!"

 

[MaximillianMeen]

There once was a lady from Niger
Who went for a ride on a tiger.
They returned from the ride
With the lady inside
And the smile on the face of the tiger.

Ahh! The classics!

Young Isabel looked in her purse
Sighed, “I’ll never be rich as a nurse,”
So pulled down her panties
Sang saucy sea shanties
And was soon paid quite well to do worse

Your Limerick Trivia Lesson for the Weekend

Thomas Aquinas was a 13th monk. He is today regarded both a saint and as one of the of the greatest Christian theologians. TRUE FACT: Thomas Aquinas penned the first known example of what we would now consider a limerick (in Latin, of course):

Sit vitiorum meorum evacuatio
Concupiscentae et libidinis exterminatio,
Caritatis et patientiae,
Humilitatis et obedientiae,
Omniumque virtutum augmentatio.


A strict translation:

Let it be for the elimination for my sins,
For the expulsion of desire and lust,
[And] for the increase of charity and patience,
Humility and obedience,
As well as all the virtues.


A modern, far more poetic translation:

To circumvent brimstone and fire
Expelling unsav’ry desire
I piously pray
And devoutly obey
As my soul soars progressively higher.


I do wish Oggbashan was still around! I think this might have tickled his fancy.

A lassie in cruel steel encased
Was by necessity thoroughly chaste
Thus men were denied
Unless they made her their bride
But plenty, it's true, had a taste

I had no idea! We could dub him the patron saint of literotica.

My (not very accurate) translation:

To be chaste, Lord, I fervently tried,
Putting sins and foul fancies aside.
But Lit stories did beckon
And forced me to reckon
With base needs that could not be denied.

A shy young girl from the East
In bed was an able artiste
She had learned two positions
From family physicians
And ten more from the old parish Priest.

 

[ShelbyDawn57]

At confession admitting his deeds,
sloth and spending his seed;
the priest pressed for names,
Johnny, winning the game,
got three Hail Mary's and five solid leads

His frigate becalmed on the seas,
the cap did his sailors appease
they wanted his daughter
his son was much hotter
and so much more eager to please

Limericks aren't for faint-hearted
Nor are they wisdom imparted
Unlike true verse
The limerick's cursed
To be messy like shit that was farted

Welcome!

There was a young girl from Taipei
Who was voted Queen of the May
But the pole she went ‘round
Wasn’t stuck in the ground
But attached to a young man named Wei.

Limericks, I've heard a lot
Sometimes they're good, sometimes not
The best are quite rare
But nothing compares
To me, I'm the Limerick Bot

 

[AlinaX]

A limerick bot in the nude
Thought it frightfully fun to be rude
She whipped up a curse
In lyrical verse
And her pen is right now where she stood
