can we just make a haiku :'-(
I have no idea how to make a limerick!

There was an old man
From Peru, whose lim'ricks all
Look'd like haiku. He

Said with a laugh "I
Cut them in half, the pay is
Much better for two."

ok, this one cracked me up too (I didn't make any of these, but I thought they were good)

if(computer.fail==true){
background.setColor(blue);
user.frown();
sys.shutdown();
user.scream("OH, FUCK YOU");}

edit: and this one too

There once was a man named Bertold
Who drank beer when the weather grew cold
As he reached for his cup...
"NEEEEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP!!!"
Oh, snap! You just got limerickrolled!

edit: another for fun

A programmer started to cuss
Because getting to sleep was a fuss
As he lay there in bed
Looping 'round in his head
was: while(!asleep()) sheep++;

and another

Among all these poems, a few
of the best recite old jokes anew.
But there's one I don't see,
And the reason must be:
In Russia, the limerick writes you.

Well, I would enter, but I think it would be better to let someone interested in the prizes compete

How many entries have we got so far?


When have I ever divulged information like that, Rainbird?  Nice try xD

Sooner or later, I'm gonna catch you drunk on these forums, while we have a competition, and you will gladly tell me then

Thats why I linked the limerick database that has HUNDREDS of limericks.  I also linked the Wikipedia which explains it.  Honestly, they arent hard at all.

This was the first example in the limerick database:

There once was a buggy AI
Who decided her subject should die.
When the plot was uncovered,
The subjected discovered
That sadly the cake was a lie.

That is freakin' brilliant.
And this contest explains why there is a tennis ball in the vgc logo

There was once a useless contest
To put people's limericks' to the test
I can't finish a limerick
The end I cannot stick
Because they're too hard to write



Kimi wa ne tashika ni ano toki watashi no soba ni ita

Itsudatte itsudatte itsudatte

Sugu yoko de waratteita

Nakushitemo torimodosu kimi wo

I will never leave you

They take minutes to write!  And they are pretty fun to read afterwords too!
