A limerick’s not quite as pat as rhyming three this and two that – Anapests are the key, three-three-two-two-three– [**'Tag** doffs his pedantical hat] Yeah, I know that’s not how you pronounce “anapest” – work with me here, people 😃 The doper who’s called **OneYogini** is much like a yogi, but teeny so much that if he were divided he’d be referred to as “TwoYoginini”! 😛 ---

Said **'Tag** , with apologies brimming, “ **'Yogini** , your humor’s quite swimming, to not take offense.” Oy! Such an immense bollix-up shows my brain cells are dimming! And now fifty-four lim’ricks gone, So how many more will go on? Of the thousands who post does Cecil’s board boast just a handful who do more than yawn? ---

In Florida one chilly night He thought he’d set his farts alight With his pants at his knee Said his friends “We can’t see,” 'Cause it’s **Really Not All That Bright** Of course, after I’d gotten this one written, I realized that **Really Not All That Bright** was actually looking to see if his farts would steam in cold air, not lighting them on fire. But this scans and that doesn’t, so you’ll just have to live with it. ---

(I wasn’t about to try rhyming “look!ninjas”; I’ll leave that to those better at this!!) okay so the BF is out of town and I’m bored… **OneYogini** was posting in excess today and tonite she took no recess other posters were mad and said, “This poor girl is sad” so Yogini left with the pie, and swore to post less. :rolleyes: 😃 ---

The redhead won and the brunette came in second. However, there was no sign of the final contestant. Hours and hours went by causing grave concern and worry. Just as everyone was losing hope, the blonde finally arrived. The crowd was extremely happy and relieved to see her. They embraced the young girl as she came ashore. After all of the excitement died down, she leaned over to the judge and whispered, “I hate to be a bad loser, but I think those other girls used their arms.” 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-doper-name-limerick-game/237805.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-doper-name-limerick-game/237805.md?page=4)
