Can we start a rhyme thread, a la Princess Bride?

Asked by Zen_Again (9936points) May 4th, 2010

This’ll be metaculated instantly, but no matter. Remember Harm… Charm… and “no more rhymes and I mean it… anybody want a peanut?

I’ll start:

Fluther is the kind of place…

…You’d want to visit while in space.

shego's avatar

It’s a way to leave that place.

bongo's avatar

without having to show your face

Arp's avatar

I have never seen the princess bride

KatawaGrey's avatar

That statement made my eyes go wide!

Fred Savage hurts my Republican pride.

Brian1946's avatar

How can Fred hurt something that doesn’t exist?

aprilsimnel's avatar

Perhaps naught but to flick his wrist!

Wesley tells her “As you wish”.

Brian1946's avatar

So she swims away like Annabeth Gish.

And Nemo isn’t just a fish!

Trillian's avatar

I’ve read through this with great relish!

Trillian's avatar

I see a wasp on the rail outside…

Brian1946's avatar

It’s 5 feet long, you must be horrified!

Trillian's avatar

I was at first but now I’m fine

chels's avatar

I guess I’ll have a glass of wine.

Trillian's avatar

That’s the ticket, I think we’ve got it…

Brian1946's avatar

Yikes- Sarah Palin just shot it!

Trillian's avatar

We should make her run the gauntlet!

zephyr826's avatar

The Alaskan rogue will not be daunted.

Brian1946's avatar

Even though her bedroom is haunted,

rebbel's avatar

Obviously it can be done, or can’t it?

chels's avatar

Nothing can be done when her house is slanted.

Brian1946's avatar

That’s what her media pimp ranted,

Trillian's avatar

I know! Let’s tap in a couple of shims

J0E's avatar

Holy shit, check out those rims!

rebbel's avatar

I wouldn’t touch them if i was you, they are Jim’s.

chels's avatar

Now as you know it is that time

Trillian's avatar

for us to emerge from primordial slime.

aprilsimnel's avatar

Which, as we know, is quite the climb!

chels's avatar

Even for the strongest mime!

Coloma's avatar

Fluthers a stealer of time.

My cars just a mess, I need to get dressed, get out in the sun…you people are fun!

chels's avatar

Don’t get sunburn on that bum!

Brian1946's avatar

Or you’ll have to soak your butt in a tank of rum!

jazmina88's avatar

A tank of rum….a bottle of booze…which one to drink…which one to choose??

chels's avatar

Choose the wine, cuz that’s what I have. You’ve got nothing to lose?

shego's avatar

What kind do you have, I still have to choose.

J0E's avatar

Who cares what kind? Just get some booze!

Zen_Again's avatar

They are two line rhymes – or else you lose!

netgrrl's avatar

This looks like a fun game, but it’s time for a snooze.

chels's avatar

I have red wine, it’s cabernet.

dammit_cynthia's avatar

i’ll play my sweet clarinet?

J0E's avatar

Ugh, it’s way too early. I don’t want to hear music yet.

shego's avatar

But it was all set.

Nullo's avatar

That’s okay, we’ll soon forget.

jazmina88's avatar

Dr_Dredd's avatar

I beg your pardon?

jazmina88's avatar

The sun is so bright.

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Free associations, right?

jazmina88's avatar

the dog has to poo when her tail goes straight up

J0E's avatar

What’s this? Someone breaking the string with something about a pup?

jazmina88's avatar

it’s not breakin a string, it’s tellin a sign

KatawaGrey's avatar

Ah, yes, but someone has to whine. ;)

J0E's avatar

You’ve done it again! Oh well, I guess it’s fine.

Zen_Again's avatar

Pay attention: two lines to a rhyme!

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Four is a multiple of two. :-)

Zen_Again's avatar

Oh so clever @dr dredd are you!
;-)

KatawaGrey's avatar

Thank goodness she’s here to take down the heat…

Coloma's avatar

I’m wiped out this morning, dead on my feet…

bongo's avatar

So now im sat on fluther having a rest…

Coloma's avatar

Yes, and dealing with an ex I detest! -lol—

zephyr826's avatar

I fear no rhymes I can create -

chels's avatar

But god damn why did I get up so late?

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Because you stayed up too late the night before…

chels's avatar

Oh wow, you’re right. But I want to sleep some more..

zephyr826's avatar

Alas, the day is past half-done…

chels's avatar

Here it’s too late to have any fun :(
it’s 9pm :O

J0E's avatar

That is not true, listen up hon. To have fun you do not need the sun.

chels's avatar

Oh J0E, oh J0E. What shall I do?

J0E's avatar

The word I am looking for, I wish I knew. Oh look, a shiny screw

chels's avatar

And look over there, a shiny nail too.

KatawaGrey's avatar

Perhaps to have fun, you can bang your boo!

lillycoyote's avatar

You can bang your boo if you need to, but if you bang someone else’s, we’re through!

cyn's avatar

Oh no! What will Richard Henry do?
~ <3chels&RHforeva&always

shego's avatar

He’ll sit on his poo, and throw food at you.

Brian1946's avatar

That’s better than the other way around.

zephyr826's avatar

A new rhyme scheme at last is found.

Brian1946's avatar

‘tis a scheme of which we can only dream.

zephyr826's avatar

Through the mist, ideas gleam

aprilsimnel's avatar

like dew on leaves in the early morn.

zephyr826's avatar

To fluther from other work we’re torn.

Brian1946's avatar

On Andrew’s TV we watched 24 hours of porn.

KatawaGrey's avatar

And now we dine on corn.

Dr_Dredd's avatar

And peas.

chels's avatar

And little broccoli trees..

Brian1946's avatar

Thufferin’ thucotash, what else for dinner?!

Arp's avatar

Fee, Fie, Fo, Fum, I think we have a winner!

chels's avatar

No McDonalds for a week and you’re already looking thinner!

jazmina88's avatar

Thinner? dinner….The answer is PIE!

shego's avatar

My oh my, let’s get high

shpadoinkle_sue's avatar

High off brownies of the special kind.

chels's avatar

I’ll bake them now, if you don’t mind.

jazmina88's avatar

Brownies will certainly start the weekend off right

chels's avatar

If you get too buzzed you can stay the night.

jazmina88's avatar

can we boogie and dance?? heck, a bit of a party

chels's avatar

With spiked fruit punch, though it’s a little bit tart-y

jazmina88's avatar

Tart fruit punch is fine, it’s mothers Day too!

shpadoinkle_sue's avatar

Then happy Mother’s Day from here to Kalamazoo!

chels's avatar

On a day like today what’s a mother to do?!

tragiclikebowie's avatar

Your mother smells like an old shoe~

shpadoinkle_sue's avatar

For her present, she told me to leave her alone

tragiclikebowie's avatar

Not even a quick chat on the telephone?

chels's avatar

She’s way too drunk, too much Patrón!

Zen_Again's avatar

No more rhymes, and I mean it!

tragiclikebowie's avatar

Anybody want a peanut?

Dr_Dredd's avatar

No peanuts for me, no peanuts for you.

Brian1946's avatar

A peanutless prospect makes me go BOO HOO!

aprilsimnel's avatar

You could always have Nutella on toast!

Brian1946's avatar

If I didn’t mind becoming host to a parasitic ghost! :-0

lillycoyote's avatar

I have been a host to a parasitic ghost, if I may boast.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

And you were not turned into a pile of compost?

Brian1946's avatar

I heard that she turned into ectoplasm.

chels's avatar

Don’t talk like that my eye will spasm!

Brian1946's avatar

Ok, I’ll speak no more of the paranormal.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

Did anybody order a camel?

Brian1946's avatar

Perhaps someone who wants to hump Mark Hamill?

Dr_Dredd's avatar

I prefer Harrison Ford.

Arp's avatar

Indiana jones makes me bored.

Brian1946's avatar

Much gratitude for your opinion, cultural lord.

J0E's avatar

You have less culture than a board.

lillycoyote's avatar

Yes, he should have fallen on his sword.

Brian1946's avatar

So that he could remove his chastity belt.

Arp's avatar

And make love to a tubular sea-shell.

EmpressPixie's avatar

This question has kind of gone to hell.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

I wish people would stick with the two line rhyme scheme

aprilsimnel's avatar

Alas, my friend, that remains just a dream.

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam…

lillycoyote's avatar

Oh what a terrible dweam, everytime I think of it I sqeam!

lillycoyote's avatar

And then I SQUEAM it, just to make sure you know I really mwean it.

Nullo's avatar

“The house is dirty; you must clean it!”

shego's avatar

It’s your shit! You don’t want me to throw a fit.

Nullo's avatar

A day in the mines, and I want to sit.

Arp's avatar

If you want a day in the mines, thats what you’ll get.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

All of you fail at the rhyming scheme.

EmpressPixie's avatar

You were just living a dream.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

I had hoped it would be a simple task

zephyr826's avatar

Alas, no matter how many times you ask…~

shego's avatar

I must say I need a flask

tragiclikebowie's avatar

I GIVE UP ON THIS THREAD

lillycoyote's avatar

So to you this thread is dead?

Dr_Dredd's avatar

It’s only mostly dead; it’s partly alive.

Zen_Again's avatar

I say let the sucker thrive.

jazmina88's avatar

all we need is some noon day sun, get this tornado on the run

Arp's avatar

Riding tornadoes, now that would be fun.

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Auntie Em, Auntie Em!

zephyr826's avatar

We should play some REM.

Zen_Again's avatar

Everybody hurts, you know.

jazmina88's avatar

For the Bible tells me so.

lillycoyote's avatar

The Bible also tells me to go and row and sow. How am I supposed to know?

jazmina88's avatar

You know inn your heart and a mind that is true

jazmina88's avatar

That this ole gal aint got a clue

Has this damn thread finally found it’s end
or will this bitch delete before she sends.

Zen_Again's avatar

I think it might continue some more…

jazmina88's avatar

shpadoinkle_sue's avatar

Yes! With lots of percussion and lots of brass.

Zen_Again's avatar

We’ll take it to Broadway and kick some ass!

Arp's avatar

Fluther: The Musical shall be it’s name

Zen_Again's avatar

Let’s try not to make it The Crying Game???!!!

Dr_Dredd's avatar

I can see it now; a Tony is ours!

Zen_Again's avatar

Let’s see if we can get Crystal Bowers.

lillycoyote's avatar

She might sing in our showers.

jazmina88's avatar

Mamasox and her Fluther crew…..sounds like a mighty brew

Dr_Dredd's avatar

Here’s to you!

lillycoyote's avatar

We thank you Dr. Dredd. That is nice for you to have said.

jazmina88's avatar

shpadoinkle_sue's avatar

Oh no, we’re outta ice! Who gonna go get more?

zephyr826's avatar

I’ll say it again – there’s a cooler by the door.

lillycoyote's avatar

And there’s another one over there, on the floor, full of the beer that I adore.

jazmina88's avatar

Beer is fine, what’s to lose, can we really drink all the booze?
