In the chat box, VR said something that I was convinced should have been a limerick. Now in traditional Ministry of Unutterable Silliness tradition, I have single handedly decided to take this silly idea, run with it simultaneously off a cliff and into a brick wall, revise it, reject it, forget it, fall asleep, wake up, drink a bit too much and thereby come back to the Lounge to start a new thread...

So here is a limerick inspired by a member of the Ministry:

There was a young dude from down under
for whom words never ever went asunder
of silliness he spoke,
and alcohol betōōk
to make of himself a venerable wonder

I await submissions from others.

(I know there is a User Poetry section in the Writer's Corner, but this just didn't feel right there -- far too many in-jokes...)
