YOU MEAN BADER. But okay.

Guess this one:

Single white lass seeks
landed gent for marriage, whist.
No parsons, thank you.

And have Hamlet:

'His mother wed his
dead murdered father's brother!'
Next Jerry Springer.

FIVE POINTS. OR FIFTY. OR A GOLD STAR!

OK. I'm totally giving the caps a rest now. At first it was excitable. Now my eyes (and shift key) hurt.

I have a whole book of these. [livejournal.com profile] wliberation = made of wonderful, wonderful.

Heh. Man, they're funny every time. Do remind me, how did St. Augustus' Confessions go again?

Hee :D

This is just to say
I screwed around. Forgive me.
I enjoyed it so.

I love you or these, seriously. Every now and then, I tae the book off the shelf and re-read them and my day improves ten-fold. *hgs*

Thanks! Heh, I loved that. (Our student union has a notice board on which there's a 'poetry corner' that needs stuff. I should convince to put some of these up there.)

Yay! It was a success then! I'm pleased. It was an impulse buy, and I was a bit worried that you'd find it boring, but hey, what was I thinking? I mean, twinnage, right? Silly me.

I love all the ones that I recognise, which is a fair few. I suspect I'd ove the others, too, if I knew them. Haiku hunour: the best kind :)

Silly you, indeed. I mean, come on! Hilarity in seventeen(-ish) syllables!

It's humour in snack form - what could be better? I have no idea why I doubted it.
