Okay, okay...I know there are enough games already, but I just couldn't resist. As some of you know, we (meaning mainly GLQ and myself, and some other people) used to write limericks on the Insanity Board one line at a time. We came up with some funny stuff. I decided that we should do that some more...it's so fun!
For those who don't know what a limerick is, it is a 5-line poem, with the AABBA pattern. An example would be: There was once a moth named Lenny, Who was poor and didn't have a penny, So he went to the Money Tree, Found some sand and said "Whee!" Then sold it but it wasn't worth any
(that's just a stupid I made up at the top of my head) Also, it doesn't have to be neopets related (it could, but doesn't have to be). Just remember the rhyme pattern and only one line at a time!
There once was squid in Chicago,

I thought that limericks have a certain number of syllables in the first, second, last lines and third and fourth? I'm not sure...
