Title: a poem for JOTD
Post by: capn_cal on March 06, 2009, 23:52:20
(if your wondering what JOTD stands for, it stands for Joke Of The Day)
joke of the day will make stay at bay
(or the docks)making you laugh all day
especially the ones that you think are funny.
So grab your friends and maybe even a bunny! :D
for the ones that you think aren't funny leave them be
for everyone else to see.
So enjoy the joke of the day
and have a good night :D :D

Great idea CC  :thumbs:


Here you go:

Whenever there's a quorum,
down at the Shipsim forum,
the locals gather
where it's open slather
minus wit and sans decorum.

If subjects oceanic,
and arguments Titanic,
become too much
(even for the Dutch)
Aad the Pirate says "Don't panic!"

"Enough with all this hating,
this moronic debating,
there's a game we play
called Joke of the Day
and the rest of us are waiting."

"Come in and tell your story,
say an old chestnut hoary.
If it's not too blue,
I can guarantee you,
everlasting Shipsim glory."

How long did that take to think up? ;D

My son likes "graphic novels" (which in my day were called comic books, but apparently that's now a great insult to the fragile geniuses who create these literary masterpieces) so while he pored over the new rubbisharrivals in a shop this morning, I put together most of it in my head, then tidied it up when we got home.  There aren't too many words that rhyme with "Titanic" and "forum" so it almost wrote itself in places  :)

My evil red sailing boat?

I guess it was better than:

"Gloat said he had the best coat.
Arguing, we were sat in the boat.
The boat, bright red, was afloat in the moat.
Eventually, unable to resist, overboard we threw Gloat.
In a few days, Gloat will bloat,
And he will float with his coat in a moat near our boat.

Yeah, once again I was a bit struck of what to say. it was either that or Hali Berri. And you dont look anyhting like Hali Berri.

Same story for Gloat too, unless you wanted it to read:

Then theres Gloat,
Who looks like a Goat

You could have tried using my real first name, "Terence". That's much easier to rhyme.

Terry ate a berry
and the berry ate Terry
He and Gloat
were on an evil red sailing boat
Gloat laughed at the sight
As Terry got a painful bite

And Gloat was all alone
His boat went in motion
He was drifting out into the ocean
With no telephone

He began to panic - scream for advice
And then something heavy
landed onto the man-eating berry
It justed happened to be a Telecomunication divice

Then there was an awful smell
As the berry became sick
And Terry was vomited out as well

Terry screamed at Gloat
"Were are we? Tell me or I will make you drink evil red potion"
Gloat replied, "We are sinking in the middle of the ocean"

"And why is that?" asked Terry
who was covered in the remains of the berry
The boat began to sail at an angle
"Well," said Gloat. "Its because we are in the Bermuda Triangle"

My attempt now, devoted to Ship Sim Harbour Masters.

None the more random a-forum,
Than the Ship Sim Harbour Masters doorum,
Open to anyone and everyone,
Am I making sense or am I not.

As I type it into the google bar,
Oh my, there you are.
With all your whitty banter about ships,
I read as I tuck into chips.

Oh how I love the taste of chips,
But none more than the amazing talk of ships.
With Ship Addict and all the gang,
It goes incredibly well with Amadeus Mozart, Wolfgang.

So it is for these very reasons that I do oh so love Ship Sim Harbour Masters,
Mastering The Simulator on a Ship, in the Harbour.
To Kapn Jonah, Barbossa, Bechjetkid and the crew,
I just want to say a big Thank You.
