Limericks from Around the World

Something has disturbed me about the internet for a while, now. Despite the wealth of information available, no-one has seen fit to add to this with a limerick from every capital city on Earth.

The time as come to rectify this appalling lack.

Obviously, this is going to take a while. But come back regularly, and if the gods are willing there'll be new verses with a fair frequency. For the moment, just use your imagination and make up your own if your city's not here.

These aren't being done in any order; I started with Dublin, but after that it's whatever springs to mind.

Just so you know: it sometimes takes me a couple of days to realise how much some of the limericks I write suck. So if it's really bad, it may be around for a while. I promise to replace the truly awful ones as soon as their inelegant nature is pointed out to me.

Her edacity rivalled Jay Gatsby
And with hooters prodigious
Wooing verged on religious
So her income remained far from shabby

He could do was to barf, the poor dear.

But in fact, they were truly bizarre

His arse with... but no, it's too awful.

Till the day turned quite breezy

The effect was quite striking
And it nicely set off the green condom.

He's great choice, but he still likes the panda

She was ready for scheming
And perhaps even screaming
But a blow job in noon melodrama?

On its own, this ain't tragic
But an arse full of magic
