World’s Most Clever Limericks
The site LimerickDB is very much like the site bash.org, except it’s for limericks. Users can give each entry a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Thumbs up give the limerick a point, thumbs down subtract a point.
The site has a running list of the limericks with the most points. Nearly all of them at the top are very clever, but my favorite has the be the one currently sixth on the list:
If you catch a Chinchilla in Chile
And cut off its beard, willy-nilly
You can honestly say
That you have just made
A Chilean Chinchilla’s chin chilly
Ah, such wit and wordplay.
Anyways, if you have a soft spot for silly limericks, I recommend you check out some of the limericks topping the list. Click the plus sign next to the ones you like and the minus sign next to the ones you don’t. If you’re ambitious, you can even submit your own.

Sorry, but it does not meet the definition of a limerick. A true limerick consists of five lines with lines one and two rhyming with each other, lines three and four rhyming with each other, and live five rhyming with lines one and two. The words “Say” and “Made” which end lines three and four do not rhyme. You could correct it by substituting this line for line four. “That you’ve made on this day,”
This is not a Limerick, the rhyming pattern is AABBA, line 1 and 2 rhyme, yes, but 3 and 4 do to, and line 5 rhymes with 1 and 2. Line 3 and 4 do not ryhme in this!
