Limerick Contest

I know it's not St Patrick's Day, or even spring time at all.
But, I
KNOW that limericks are funny and that Colin Mochrie is Scottish.
Both are GREAT reasons to have a limerick contest, don't ya think?  Me too!

GAME OVER!

We had 13 entries and, as promised, 6 winners!

Colin Mochrie as a therapist/psychologist

You think that you're mentally ill
you want me to prescribe you some pills
You say they insult you,
and poke sorts of fun at you
Well how do you think I feel?!?! -
Kevin

I needed some help getting buoyed.
When I saw Colin, I was annoyed.
He jittered, he stared.
I asked, "Are you scared?"
Said he, "Just a little a-Freud." -
Pat B

There is a man named Mochrie
Who specializes in psychology
He's got shiny and bald
As I recalled
And I'm crazy, ha ha ha he he! -

Meeting the Whose Line cast at Clive or Drew's house

One day I got drunk at Clive's
(It's how WhoseLiners spend most of their lives!)
I saw Ryan and Greg
Both hump Colin's leg
But Brad wasn't very surprised. -
Heather

I went down to Drew's place like magic,
Doing improv about scenes pelagic,
But this one thing I feared,
Colin disappeared,
'Cause Drew told bald jokes, they were tragic.
(Note: Pelagic means "referring to the ocean".) - Will W

There once was a meeting at Drew's
And I'm sure it was loaded with booze
Col and Ry talked
'Bout what's tucked in their sock
While Greg and Clive showed off their moves -
Chris

The game description

The long description

Pick one of the two subjects provided and create a light humorous, nonsensical, or bawdy verse of five anapestic lines usually with the rhyme scheme aabba. Anapestic means A metrical foot composed of two short syllables followed by one long one, as in the word seventeen; or a line of verse using this meter; for example, “’Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house”.  The winning entries will receive a CD-ROM containing both Improv All-stars Pay Per View Specials recorded January 2001, in Real Media format, as well as many extra videos in Asf and RM format.  

The short idea

Make a limerick poem about one of the two ideas below.  Be funny, be the best, and you win something.

Example:
This is a limerick written about the TV show Hawaii 5-0.
There once was a force named 5-0
With Danny, Kono and Chin Ho
And McGarrett in the lead
They stopped dastardly deeds
Which made for an awesome show !

  • Disclaimer: I am not a fan of aforementioned show, it's just an example folks....

The Two Subjects:

Colin Mochrie as a therapist/psychologist

Take any slant on this you like.  But remember to be funny.  Make it "milk outta my nose" funny.  Kill me, slay me, make me die from laughing.  Or elese make me crack up so hard, that I have to go see Dr. Mochrie!

 

Meeting the Whose Line cast at Clive or Drew's house

Funny is the key here.  If I am not in pain, you didn't do it right!  Pretend you are there with them, describe what you see, what is happening, what it smells like!  Be afraid, be daring, but don't blame me if you go crazy trying to come up with a good one!

 

One entry per person, even though there are two topics, only your first entry will be valid.  No language rating on this contest, be as bawdy, obscene, or coarse as you like, but expect that your poem will be censored before it is posted on this site.
