Yesterday, some guy asked me, “Hey, can I stand under your umbrella with you?” I originally just kind of looked at him strangely, but then he attempted to smile some encouragement at me, so I shot a quick, fake smile at him. Might have been a better line if he weren’t walking next to me with an open umbrella. ---

Is there like a whole genre of limericks like this? Here’s one I remember: There once was a man from St. Bees, Who was stung in the arm by a wasp. When asked, “Does it hurt?” He replied, “No, it doesn’t, I’m so glad it wasn’t a hornet.” ---

I think this is a “clean” version of the equally clean: There was a young lady from Bude Who went for a swim in a lake A man in a punt Stuck a pole in her ear And said “you can’t swim here, it’s private.” ---

Years ago a friend made these up. There once was a young girl named Brill Who tried a dynamite stick for a thrill They found her vagina In North Carolina And bits of her tits in Brazil There once was a young girl named Lucy Who shoved a dynamite stick up her pussy They found her vagina In North Carolina And bits of her tits in Brazil There once was a young girl named Lotti Who shoved a dynamite stick up her twatty They found her vagina In North Carolina And bits of her tits in Brazil ---

I was outside a friend’s house a few years ago, waiting for traffic so I could cross the street to go to Burger King. I don’t remember the actual pickup line, but I think it was something like “Hey, baby, you busy tonight” (or something equally classy). I turned around toward the voice, and saw a **clown** , full white-face and all, in a crappy-ass car. I turned away again & ignored him, but it was worth it to be able to go back into my friend’s house and say “I just got hit on by some clown” - and not be exaggerating! 😃 ---
