CIV3 Limericks
Think of one and post it Im sure some of you sickos out there can improve on this my first effort!


I once played a game of civ3,
And had to nip out for a pee,
upon my return,
It made guts churn,
To see the whole world had declared war on me.

Hope this is not to lame for you.

there once was an empire called "persia"
i discovered them on an excur-sia
they pissed me off bad
now it's really quite sad
as the world sings their funeral dirge-a

Following your AABBA rhyming format, here's my sad little contribution:

Playing CIV 3:

My empire was once vast and strong.
I could hardly do anything wrong.
But then my tech got out of hand
and I lost lots of land,
alas, my 'turns to discover' were just too long.

So I decided to play my hand at some trade.
I knew not a shovel from a spade.
But I managed to steal
a little 'gold per turn' deal
and soon many discoveries I made.

I am now planning on being the winner.
But I fear lack of food has made me thinner.
And the housework's not done,
'cause I'm having too much fun,
And I ponder - How long can I postpone dinner?

It is now the year 2000 A.D.
Nearly the end now, I'm sure you'll agree
But now I've been playing for weeks
and my whole house simply reeks,
I guess that's the price of playing Civ 3!

- Skeeve

Sorry, couldn't do much better - I was hoping to make it funnier, but the dang rhymes wouldn't fit!

The limerick was good, but I vote it to be the best use yet of the (band) Smilies!!

when i heard the freak blast a boom box!

There were some Samurai from Edo
Composed entirely of elan
They would charge pikes, knights and swords
And slaughter them to a man
It was all a part of bushido

Dedicated to some mean mofos some games back who eventually gave me a GL.
