DUs Book of Nonsense (Limericks)
Advertisements [?]
The Book of nonsense is where the limerick got it’s popularity a long time ago and I have always liked this art form (although some would not agree that it is art) because most people can write one.
So if you like please make one and add it to this thread and make it preferably about DU or current events Perhaps is we have enough we could have our own Book of Nonsense.
I will start it out with this;



The history of DU is unwritten
But Limericks can tell it if smitten
Just write five lines
With two different rhymes
And don’t ever think of quit’n.

There is a board named DU
Why he made it we have only a clue
But his nick name is Skinner
And he did it at dinner
When he saw a bush in his stew.

And another known as Elad
That doesn’t sound so bad
He was supping with Skinner
On that fateful dinner
And the smell of bush made him mad

Now three heads are better than one
And when it was finally done
They stayed up all night
To join in the fight
For Al Gore had actually won.

So deep underground did they go
With there Democratic underground show
And they invited us here
And thought it not queer
To let our safety valve blow
