Oh Why am I Left Out of the Party?

Doggerel Dave

Got to get fun from a limerick too

When that is all your intellect can do;

But nothing to be found therein

As coherence is such a sin:

Well there’s room for more paper in the loo…..

    Now I knew that I loved limericks now where did the paper go? Good read Dave

    • Doggerel Dave

      Really glad and grateful you approve, Soren.

      And now my limerick starting - There was a wise talking dog named Fido..... That's as far as I've got! lol.

      • Doggerel Dave

        Second line -
        'Had trouble keeping orchi in line though'

        There You go - done my bit - your turn....

        ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ‘ only you can write "As coherence is such a sin" - pure gold.

        • Doggerel Dave

          Many thanks for that. I'm just anti obscurity, that's all.

        • Cheeky Missy

          Hardy, har, har! [More on this later, I intend].

          • Doggerel Dave

            I await with both anticipation and trepidation...... But pleasures to come are always more fun.

            • Cheeky Missy

              "Yes, dear Sir, we are most pleased to assure you that we have quite the variety of fixtures for holding paper for said loo, pick which best appeals to you."
              Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a delightful poignancy waltzing. Thank you very much for sharing.

              • Doggerel Dave

                Thanks for the information. Could you quote me re prices please - if these limericks keep on flowing at the current rate there might well be the need for extra capacity....

                • Cheeky Missy

                  "Ever heard of "pay-per view"? We're now marketing pay-per you and for every limerick needing more of you know what for the loo, we'll give it to you for a very good price. How much will you be wanting?"

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    I'll hold you to that one, but have to see which way the wind is blowing first.........

                  • Tristan Robert Lange

                    Every one loves a good laughing limerick, no? ๐Ÿคฃ

                    Let's see if this one reaches the top too,
                    Though it might be better read in the loo.
                    In there, I'm sure, no one will mind
                    If you make them all laugh in kind,
                    And it causes them to shit out their poo.

                    ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฃ

                    Rock on, sir Dave! Loved it, my friend! ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

                      Hanging out here is a fella called Dave
                      Who some argue is a bit of a knave.
                      Likes to cause trouble,
                      Prick someoneโ€™s bubble;
                      He hopes itโ€™s reality he can save.

                      Your support is more than I could have hoped for, Tristan.
                      Considering a separate pin for this; It came quickly but says what I want to say............ considered and implemented.

                    • Paul Bell

                      If you're going to write a lim i rick.
                      Make sure the topic holds a stick.
                      Otherwise, the message loses grace.
                      Gets lost in the fog.
                      Tossed in the bog.

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        Try my next (and I hope final on this topic) one. Never much grace about my commentary anyway. Fair comment though.

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        Quick edit before I put it to bed for a while.....๐Ÿคฃ

                        • Cheeky Missy

                          Did it go to bed without a hissy fit?

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            Shush - I'm hoping it will settle after a while....

                            • Cheeky Missy

                              I'll rock it to sleep, if need be.

                              • Doggerel Dave

                                I will bear that in mind - but out there for the moment everything seems to have calmed down limerick wise.
                                I am a little trepidatious though that a certain diabolical duo might again start splattering crap and hot air around...๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ
