Reminds me of an old joke about a door-to-door salesman. He knocks on the door. A little boy answers. He asks, "Is your mother home?"

Boy responds, "Yes, she's out in the back yard fucking the sheep."

The salesman, taken aback, says "How does that make you feel?"

"Oh, not too baaaaaaaaad."
 
An old man couldn't find a job, so he decided to open a medical clinic. He put a sign out front that said, "Get treatment for $50, if not cured get back $100."

A local doctor thinks this is a good opportunity to both show up the old man and grab $100, so he visits the clinic. Posing as the patient, the doctor tells the old man, "I've lost my sense of taste."

The old man says to his nurse: "Bring the medicine from box number 22 and place 3 drops in the patient's mouth." The nurse placed the drops on the doctor's tongue.

He begins spitting and yells, "Hey, that's not medicine, that's gasoline!"

The old man says, "Congratulations! You're cured! You have your taste back, that will be $50."

The doctor is annoyed at loosing to the old man and after a few days he returns, even more determined to get the $100.

The doctor says to the old man, "I seem to have lost my memory and I can't remember anything."

The old man tells the nurse: "Bring the medicine from box number 22 and put 3 drops in the patient's mouth."

The doctor immediately protests, "But that's the medicine for the sense of taste!"

The old man says, "Congratulations! Your memory is back! That will be $50."

The doctor leaves, even madder than before. After several days, the doctor is even more determined to show up the old man and get his money back. When the doctor enters the old man's office, the old man asks, "So what seems to be the problem?"

The doctor says, "My eyesight has suddenly become very weak, I can barely see anything."

The old man says: "Well, it seems that I don't have any medicine for that, here, take this $100 and go."
The doctor immediately protests, "Hey, this is only a $10 bill!"

The old man says, "Congratulations! Your eyesight has returned! That will be $50."
 
This is why sentence structure is so crucial:
Business was terrible and not picking up. The boss had to fire somebody, and he narrowed it down to one of two people, Debra or Jack. It was an impossible decision because they were both super workers. Rather than flip a coin, he decided he would fire the first one who used the water cooler the next morning. Debra came in the next morning with a horrible hangover after partying all night. She went to the cooler to take an aspirin. The boss approached her and said, " Debra, I’ve never done this before but I have to either lay you or Jack off.”
"Could you jack off?" she says. "I feel like shit."

A teacher asked her 3rd grade class to name things that ended with “tor” . . . and that also ate things !!
The first little boy said, "Alligator."
"Very good James, that's a big word."
The second boy said, "Predator."
“Yes, that's another big word Alan. Very well done."
Little Johnny says, "Vibrator."
After nearly falling off her chair, the teacher says, "That is a big word Johnny, but it doesn't eat anything."
“ Well my mother has one and she says it eats friggin batteries like there's no tomorrow!" BOOM BOOM !!!
 
Vernor's gingerale offered a vacation for two in Ireland to the winner of its limerick contest.
I submitted what surely should have been the winning entry. It began in the traditional manner, of course.

There once was a lass from Nantucket,
Said "Give me a Vernor's or fucket.
That Vernor's tastes great,
A cold glass for me, mate.
Put a head on the top and I'll suck it."

Never did get to Ireland either.
 
Vernor's gingerale offered a vacation for two in Scotland to the winner of its limerick contest.

What does Scotland have to do with limericks?

Shouldn't they have made the prize a trip to Ireland?

Must have been Ireland. It was a long time ago, and all those people talk funny, so I get confused.
And another thing.... those skirts grown men wear......

Don't true Limericks require a reference to Limerick?

There once was a man Keith&Co
Whose comment did make me go
Write a Limerick
That mentioned Limerick
The crafty old so and so.


Is that better?

Always.
I just seem to remember a list of 'things you didn't know' mentioning that. That Limericks aren't just the rhyme scheme, same as Rum has to come from Jamaica to be true rum and other rules about authenticity.
 
Mr. Sharma comes home one night, and his wife throws her arms around his neck: "I have great news: I'm a month overdue. I think we're going to have a baby! The doctor gave me a test today, but until we find out for sure, we can't tell anybody."
The next day, Mrs. Sharma receives a telephone call from Reliance Energy (Electricity supplier in India ) because the electricity bill has not been paid.
“Am I speaking to Mrs. Sharma?”
"Yes, speaking"
Reliance guy, "You're a month overdue, you know."
"How do YOU know?" stammers the young woman.
"Well, ma'am, it's in our files." says the Reliance guy.
"What are you saying? It's in your files. HOW?"
“Yes. We have a system of finding out who's overdue.”
“GOD! This is too much."
"Madam, I am sorry. I am following orders. I have to inform you are overdue."
"I know that. Let me talk to my husband about this tonight. He will speak to your company tomorrow.”
That night, she tells her husband about the incident, and he, mad as a bull, rushes to Reliance office the next morning.
"What's going on? You have it on file that my wife is a month overdue? What business is that of yours?" the husband shouts.
"Just calm down," says the lady at the reception at Reliance, "it's nothing serious. All you have to do is pay us."
"PAY you? And if I refuse?"
"Well, in that case, sir, we'd have no option but to cut yours off."
"And what would my wife do then?" the husband asks.
"I don't know. I guess she'd have to use a candle."

First time I ever heard of that. Edward Lear, arguably the greatest exponent of the form, never had references to Limerick. Are you sure you're not confusing them with haikus and references to nature, or something?
