The PAX Line Limerick Thread!

edited May 2008 in PAX Archive
You will find yourself standing in line this year, there's no getting around it. So rather than engaging in pictochat wars or heckling those poor saps at the end of the line, why not get to know your neighbors with a rousing game of Line Limericks? Turn to your companion, the guy behind you, or the cute chick in front of you, and let loose with a little limerick! Men and women alike will swoon before your amazing poetic skills!

Limericks (pronounced lim'ricks) are easy, catchy and fun. Their form is as such:

There once was a [person] from [place]
Whose [body part] was [special case].
When [event] would occur,
It would cause [him or her]
To violate [law of time/space].


So here's mine, which I made in about three minutes...I'll probably have to work on a better one than this but here goes!

This is the PAX Limerick thread
So start making one in your head
so while standing in line
you can have a good time
and you might get someone in bed!

In all likelihood, this is my fault. If the current situation is not my fault, please let me know as soon as possible so that I may rectify this oversight. Thank you.

    There once was a crowd at PAX
    Who had a bouncing blue ball
    When the ball bounced up
    The crowd would shout
    Then the ball would fall
    Until it got stuck on a ledge

    There once was a young man at PAX
    wearing a shirt, big shoes, and some slacks
    He walked through the door
    Stepped onto the floor
    and said, "the noobs will all bow to my HAX"

    not perfect, but meh

    meh, one more just for montana

    There once was a whore from Montana
    Her name was Aunt Jemima
    When the sun would go down
    So would her gown
    Until she was eaten by a bear

    that was some quality.

    PAX begins with cries of joy.
    Thousands of eyes shine like a brand new toy.
    Scandalous fun for every girl or boy.

    There once was a mod from Cleveland
    Who was perusing the verses at hand
    They got really descriptive
    and most had expletives
    so many a user was banned.

    Haha, that's brilliant. Reminds me of this one:

    There once was a man from Japan
    Whose limericks just wouldn't scan.
    When asked why this was,
    He said, "It's because,"
    "I insist on trying to fit as many syllables into the final line as I possibly can."

    There once was a group of young gamers
    Who would target their enemies - t3h lamers
    Their opponents they'd frag
    "Wait a sec, there was Lag!"
    was the cry of all the complainers

    I once went to the PAX convention;
    There were parties beyond mere mention.
    I think there was more,
    Don't know for sure;
    Alcohol killed my memory retention

    There once was a panel extolled,
    Promising a villain to the fold.
    "Thompson's here!" we all thought,
    As we prayed him to rot,
    But instead we had been Uwe Boll'd.

    The second of Mario's spree
    was not perfect, we can agree.
    Thought Miyamoto
    in retrospect, "You know,
    Maybe I'll stay awake making 3."

    What's that you say? Best ever? Why thank you!

    I have a small problem with PAX,
    My money control is too lax.
    I'd save a whole bunch,
    but spend more on lunch,
    So my PAX bill is paid with pawned Macs.

    There once was a man from Nantucket
    Whose dick was so long he could suck it.
    While wiping his chin,
    He said with a grin,
    "If my ear were a cunt, I would fuck it"

    over in room six-B,
