God intended limericks should be bawdy.
In that case I shall resurrect my proudest limerick achievement:
There was a young lady named Doris who had a most tuneful ****oris. It sang and it hummed and if lovingly strummed would render the whole Anvil Chorus.

There once was a girl from Calcutta, (Hey! Remove your sweet mind from the gutter!) just to slip on her pants she would do a strange dance after slathering her legs with some butter.

>limericks should be bawdy
[I was going to start a new thread for this, but quickly thought better of it and decided to bury it down here where some of y'all are gleefully pounding away on bawdy limericks.]
last week somebody searched my site for a word which was totally unfamiliar to me. as is my wont when I spot one of these, I tried OneLook and was pointed to some slang files. the Macquarie Dictionary suggests that this word may be the rudest (i.e., grossest) word currently in English use; and I have to concur. <ecch>
if you need a word to rhyme with belch, you can easily find this word through onelook; but you have been warned!

I just finished writing an E-mail to my mom, delicate ears and all, telling her the best way to get rid of squirrels in the attic was to apply some coyote piss -- and now you have to bring up retromingent hamsters. Or something. Oh, the grossness of it all...

It also appears to be a surname (very rare: popularity rank in the U.S.: #22292). One might imagine a couple hyphenating their last names, a couple with the other partner having the name that rhymes with jerkin.

Yes I too agree that limericks should be bawdy or at least funny... and so, in light of that... She walked in the bar with a duck. She was there to meet priest, but no luck. The joke's sure to offend, 'Cause I want it to end, But boy how that girl loved to ...
