**Czarcasm** was quite the mod. Thought he was Czar, not just a god. And moving the thread He though in his head “These Dopers are certainly odd.” I’m always willing put my hat in. To defend ex-mod **manhattan**. In one thread when he was heard To say “I’m the fucking hall monitor” He quickly was dubbed “banhattan.” ---

There’s an articulate, intelligent poster name **Bricker** about whom I’ve learned something (it’s really quite a kicker) he’s into that t.v. show Tru Calling so off the pedestal of my creation he’s falling because now when I see him I just want to snicker AWWWW (((((BRICKER))))) 😉😃 ---

Consider the great Clothahump With logic, he’s known to trump. For all of his posts - Even those about ghosts - Wind up marked with a “BUMP!” Having surprised myself with that one, I decided to go for the gold: Clothahump set up an easel And started drawing a picture of Cecil All those who passed by Would roll up their eyes And say, “Damn! That looks like a weasel!” Now that I have roundly insulted The Master, I’d like to simply say how much I have enjoyed being a poster here on the SDMB, because I’m sure my posting privileges will soon be rev\*^&%^^^LOST CARRIER ---

So two out of three you could rhyme and your metre was perfect each time but I was praising you **Boy** with no underlying ploy now tell me, is that such a crime? 😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-doper-name-limerick-game/237805.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-doper-name-limerick-game/237805.md?page=3)
