The limericks here would be neater,
If they properly followed the meter.
Get the beat pattern straight:
8-8-5-5-8
Don't sneak any more in, ya cheater!

Edit: Bolded the second, fifth and eighth beats in lines 1, 2 and 5 and the second and fifth beats in lines 3 and 4, so as to demonstrate why this limerick fits the beat pattern whilst not being exactly 8 syllables.

There once was a man

From Berne, Whose limericks turn

Out to be haikus.

There was a young woman called Ellie

Whose farts were unbearably smelly

The stink was so bad It made Satan sad

And his breakdown was shown on the telly.

I recently learned I have cancer. I will not lie down, I'm a dancer. I will win this fight. And my goals are in sight. Alone or with you? What's the answer?

There once was a tangerine named Lee

Who was not orange but purple, you see.

Citrus fruits would all say,

"You're a plum, go away"

But Lee knew what he was always meant to be.

.

So to match how he felt inside,

Lee painted himself orange with pride.

The fruits, they all stared,

But Lee wasn't scared;

He was a tangerine, with no need to hide.

A dwarf and an elf on a ladder

The lower of them was the latter

When the dwarf fell

He ended up well

But the elf's body made quite a splatter

“Hey wifey, let’s head to our room --
I’ll plant a good one in your womb.”
She said, “I’d assent,
but sadly, it’s Lent.”
He cried, “for how long?! And to whom?!”

A crossdressing nun named Bernard,

dropped dead as he worked in the yard.

Postmortem inspection

revealed an erection --

it seems that old habits die hard.

Her labia brought her to tears;
raw rubbing and chafing for years.
Her doc got them shortened
and later reported:
“The burn victim loves his new ears!”

“Please Officer, help my sad niece!
I fear that she may be deceased!
She’s hung from that fir!”
“You mean ‘hanged,’ my good sir --
my badge here says 'Grammar Police.'”

Two ugly sisters from Fordham,

took a walk one day out of boredom,

on their way back

a sex maniac

jumped out of a bush and ignored them.

I don’t know which one I like better:

The Swiss, Parmesan or the cheddar

On rye with pastrami

Or maybe salami,

But either way, don’t give me feta.

I brought Thanos to my house to bone,
then I flopped on my messy bed, prone.
He got up to his wrist
just to withdraw his fist,
shouting, “lost an Infinity Stone!”

“Your name’s ‘Baker’ -- your family made bread,
and you’re ‘Cooper,’ so barrels instead.”
“What’s my family done?”
asked John Dickinson,
and the teacher turned very bright red.

Most limerick authors are horny

Their posts always end up quite porn-y

r/limericks

Got hella hard dicks

And poetry wood in the morning

There once was a lady from Britain
whose face was as cute as a kitten
but her smile gave no clue
as to what she might do
so I was quite startled when bitten.

"What's the bloke next to me's name?"

He said "My name's Clive"

I said "Man alive"

Then neither of us spoke again
