Some time back a certain Mr Bubley, who specialises in Disruptive Analysis, demonstrated his skill by disrupting my day with this Generic Limerick
There once was an X from place BNice. But I wanted more, and in the absence of more lying around (or anything satisfying turned up by Google) obviously I had to write my own...
That satisfied predicate P
He or she did thing A
In an adjective way
Resulting in circumstance C
So here they are.
The Generic Limerick Algorithm
Specify X, with a well defined locusA Limeri
State a Property Y (may be bogus)
Say what X did, does or may
Add adverbial phrase
And conclude with a joke, as per modus
The art of the limerick's cunning;An Uncertain Limerick
And, well done, the result can be stunning
But fluffing your lines
And forgetting your rhymes
Can leave the reader a bit underwhelmed
A success in a life-long endeavour!The Kama Sutra of Quantum Mechanics
I've quantised the joke! Well I never!
But the humour's uncertain
Beyond Heisenberg's curtain
Where it may, or it may not, be measured
In quantum the fun is coitionA Paradoxical Generic Limerick
Of momentum and spatial position
And as for the state,
That we cannot relate...
Up or Down? Or a super-position?
A Limerick structure conundrum:And last - and probably least...
Line two has a rhyme, but it's humdrum
The format's not broke
But there isn't a joke
Ergo: Quod Non Erat Demonstrandum
A Null Generic Limerick
Mathematically speaking of sets
The joke is in what we don't get:
If set B is in C,
Then their union's still C.
What else would you ever expect?
