To finish my limerick review of the year, here are a few of the weird and wacky stories that made me laugh at some point. If there’s a common thread running through them, I guess it’s sex. Links follow to remind you of the stories.
In Egypt the generals keep tabs/
On HIV using kebabs./
A chap from the army/
Says though it sounds barmy/
It’s cheaper than treatment with jabs.

A man who was naked and keen/
Got stuck in a washing-machine/
Some best extra virgin/

Enjoys putting cheese on his willy./

A feather-clad artist in France/

Got stuck in a crack in a rock/
Wedged tight in a cranny/
Within a big fanny/
He must’ve felt rather a cock.

A Florida woman professed/
To have a third boob on her chest/
But is the said mammary/
Merely flim-flammery?/
Time that she made a clean breast.

A zoo had two captive hyenas/
In theory from Mars and from Venus/
But efforts to breed/
Were not to succeed/
As each, it transpired, had a penis.
