    There once was a girl named coquette
    whose musical taste was motet
    very little could find
    of harmonious kind
    so she started a thread for a bet.

    2. wolfgang59
    There once was a man called Hinds
    Who to all reason was blind
    He was such a clod
    Believing in god
    And never using his mind

    3. tomtom232
    There once was a man wolfgang59
    who did not like RJHinds
    we all know why
    just wish he would die
    along with the rest of his kind

    4. johnnylongwoody
    I played chess with a chap called Cyrus,
    and his laptop got a terrible virus.
    On move 59,
    he had to resign,
    and he sent the PGN on papyrus.

    5. rookie54
    i got a buddy named duecer,
    for christmas he got a juicer,
    he kept drinking that goop,
    it threw hiz bowels inna loop,
    and hiz stool got looser and looser...

    6. Hand of Hecate
    There once was a simpleton named VR
    Who ate peanut butter from a jar
    But his dog wouldn't come
    When he showed him his bum
    And declared that a good lick would go far.

    7. coquette
    there once was a grampy called bobby
    who was often present in the lobby
    of some he did please
    while others unease
    but he never ended his hobby

    8. Hand of Hecate
    There once was a nymph named coquette
    Who was often seen carrying a racquet
    She'd say "Oh let's play"
    "I'd love a roll in the hay"
    Surely someone will be around to crack it.

    9. Kewpie
    There once was a player named HoH
    Who ate stuff made out of play dough
    But the stuff didn't mind
    To be treated unkind
    It was happy to be eaten so.

    10. Grampy Bobby
    There once was a girl named Kewpie
    whose linguistical skills were groovy.
    Very few would mind
    her play of mind,
    so Hollywood cast her in a movie.

    11. drewnogal
    There was an old gal named Drew
    Who thought she was Viv, Jan and Sue
    Her mind went berserk
    She looked such a jerk
    So she's settled for Ap', Kev and Kew.

    12. drewnogal
    There once was a player named Bobby
    Who told me about his strange hobby
    Of dressing in fur
    And making me purr
    His antics, they got me quite wobbly.

    13. Kewpie
    There was a young person called Drewno
    who drove a bright red Fiat Uno
    She was always in strife
    so she carried a knife
    and frequently told us "well, you know"

    14. johnnylongwoody
    There once was a guy called Hecate,
    who drank quite a lot of Frascati.
    He spilled a lot down,
    over his wife's party gown.
    Now he's not allowed at the party.

    15. Hand of Hecate
    There once was a pervert named Woody
    Who liked to shower with a buddy
    If it ain't on a rope
    There's no time for soap
    Cuz he's up to his balls in poonanny.

    16. Great Big Stees
    There once was a player named Ice Cold
    Who started a thread that is now old
    He vanished from sight/site
    And some say it was right
    But other just say it was bold

    17. Rank outsider
    An old chicken breeder called Stees
    All Canadian ladies could please
    They would gasp with delight
    And rejoice at the sight
    Of the beautiful cock by his knees

    18. Hand of Hecate
    She once had a bud named Outsider
    Who lusted to get inside her
    With the size of his cock
    There was nothing but shock
    As it was less than that of a spider.

    19. Kewpie
    There once was a player ChessPraxis
    who knew the world turned on its axis
    he got into debt
    and collected a bet
    Now he's paying a big pile of taxes.

    20. drewnogal
    There was a young guy called Rookie
    Subtle and crisp as a cookie
    His pockets were full
    Of sweet rhyme and bull
    Bowls me over and worth such a lookie.

    21. Kewpie
    There once was a player named tom tom
    Whose doorbell said, boringly, ding dong
    He opened the door
    To the men from the store
    And spent all the winter in long johns.

    22. Hand of Hecate
    There once was a lass known as drewnogal
    Who fancied a bit of a snoggle
    When given some lip
    She cut of the tip
    Of johnnylongwoody's jimdangle.

    23. ChessPraxis
    paulbuchmanfromfics
    His nick is so long it's a mess
    I'd shorten somehow
    Somewhere, don't know how
    paulbuchmanfromfics

    24. ChessPraxis
    There once was a player named Huck
    Who drove a fast customized truck
    he hit a big lump
    the bottom went bump
    was totaled that really did suck

    25. mikelom
    There is a great player - ChessP
    Always a good friend to me.
    We'll always be friends
    No matter the trends,
    So a Happy New Year to thee!

    26. mikelom
    There was a young lass named drewnogal,
    who the youngsters would continually ogle.
    She just didn't know,
    But she still had the flow,
    And was deemed as the town's greatest mogul !

    27. drewnogal
    There was young hunk named Mike
    A gentleman who I real like
    His wife has a gem
    Does what she says when
    She told me to go take a hike.

    28. johnnylongwoody
    There was a guy called chesspraxis
    who refused to pay any more taxes.
    He told the congress,
    he wants to pay less,
    or he'll be leaving in several taxis.

    29. wolfgang59
    Once was a gent called GreenPawn
    Who chessed from dusk to dawn
    When his wife had a moan
    He said with a groan
    Would you rather I google some porn?

    30. wolfgang59
    Once was a gent VR
    His pedantry went too far
    Said to Wolfgang59
    "Oi - that don't rhyme"
    And started a limerick war!

    31. mikelom
    I don't understand the scorn
    For a word that rhymes with 'dawn'.
    It's clear to see,
    to all and me,
    that the word is indeed, simply, 'porn'!

    32. ChessPraxis
    There once was a guy named mikelom
    from a flood sadly lost his loved home
    he stuck it out tough
    when the going got rough
    he used what he had in his dome

    33. ChessPraxis
    There once was a guy Handy Andy
    who got into some fine old aged brandy
    when the ladies dropped by
    he did more than say hi
    now we all know why he we call Andy Handy

    34. rookie54
    very rusty would not shut the f<>ck up,
    and words kept flowing from his gut,
    he wouldn't write a limerick,
    he must be playing with hiz dick,
    he'd do better with his keyboard up hiz butt...

    35. johnnylongwoody
    Rookie met a girl called Anne Holt.
    Up the aisle they decided to bolt.
    He said you are he one,
    took out his big tazer gun
    and gave her a few thousand volts.

    36 Zamboner
    There once was a fella named Rusty
    Who was so full of air he was gusty
    Folks would wonder in vain
    If he'd e'er use his brain
    But instead it went idle and dusty

    Some of them just look like excuses to be ignorant and rude!

    Some of us actually see that!

    Some others are actually not bad at all!

    Good job to those posters!

    I would say the rude & ignorant ones will go 1, 2, & 3.

    People love drama.

    My votes (of course, I can't vote for my own work, much as I may admire it) go to:

    First . . : 36. Zamboner, for the beautiful rhythm of his limerick
    Second: 33. ChessPraxis, even if he got a bit dyslexic on the last line (we all knew he meant "now we all know why we call Andy Handy" )
    Third . . : 7. coquette, for a neat bit of rhyming. Would you ever have thought of please and unease fitting together?

    Overall I thought they were a great bunch, it was hard for me to pick out three.

    There once was a lass named Kewpie
    Who thought my limerick was poopy
    I don't know why
    She must've been hi
    In hindsight she seems kinda loopy

    On a point of order. The original terms were:

    must be not too smutty


    I took this to mean that they must be smutty but not too much. In keeping with the long and noble traditions of limericks.

    All limericks which are not smutty at all should be disqualified!
