There once was a jurist from Yale .. (Limerick)

1. Who drank his beer from a pail.

[3catwoman3]

2. There once was a jurist from Yale,

Who upchucked in many a pail.
He drank to excess,
And thought “No” meant “Yes.”
He now tells a slimy false tale.

[geardaddy]

28. Good one!

[ProudLib72]

3. There once was a jurist from Yale

Whose breath smelled like beer gone stale
He put on a show
So everyone would know
He should be going straight to hell

[ProudLib72]

4. There once was a jurist from Yale

Polygraphs he'd certainly fail
Instead of investigation
Rs turned to causation
It's the woman's fault, not the male!

[ProudLib72]

5. There once was a jurist from Yale

The truth he just couldn't tell
With senators he got pissed
And his victims he dissed
This "jurist" should be going to jail

[Pepsidog]

9. For his lies were beyond the pale about all his drinks of ale

[pazzyanne]

6. Good job, DU members!!!

I had no idea we had so many talented people into writing limericks. They were wonderful.

[erronis]

7. Need a vote for these posts. Of course ProudLib72 has a good head start. So far I like

Polygraphs he'd certainly fail
Instead of investigation
Rs turned to causation
It's the woman's fault, not the male!

[Stuart G]

8. I got to add mine..which is a rhyme

The jurist from Yale
Will certainly fail
And will cry a tear
Into his large beer
As they take him away
On that fine day.
He'd better not fail,
To pay for his bail
Or it is off to jail

[Pepsidog]

10. Where he no longer can drink his ale

[Stuart G]

11. Thank You for adding that great line, it was real fine...

[Pepsidog]

20. My pleasure

[benld74]

12. All fine limericks

[shanny]

13. I will drink to that! Slainte!

[Nevilledog]

18. Only counts if you're toasting with beer.

[shanny]

26. Done--if it's Guinness.

[sprinkleeninow]

22. Na z'drovje! 🍻

[zentrum]

14. This is not a limerick, it's

...a prayer!

[Demobrat]

15. Late entry

There once was a jurist from Yale
Whose calendar told quite a tale
He went out for skis
With Bernie and Squi
Now his alibi looks like a fail.

[spooky3]

17. This is great! Nt

[sprinkleeninow]

23. 👍

16. ...

There once was a jurist from Yale
Who swore that he would prevail
Then the sins of his past
Came furious and fast
And dropped him on his third rail

[Hortensis]

39. So many good ones, but this deserves a trophy for

its encompassing truth and for that wonderful last line.

[DFW]

19. My modest contribution

There once was a frat boy from Yale
Through the Senate he thought he would sail
But before the committee
His performance was shitty
And so caused his free ride to fail

[sprinkleeninow]

24. 😆 👍

[sprinkleeninow]

21. This is all I got:

There once was someone from Yale,
Who thought he was hot crap,
Thus entitled to and deserved a
Slot on the Fed Supreme Judiciary.
He lied through his snarling opposum teeth
And was an embarrassing spectacle on teevee.

[Donkees]

25. There once was a jurist from Yale

who drank 100 kegs of ale
he couldn't stop lying,
sniveling, crying
as he raped his way to jail

[Harker]

27. A snotty punk boofist from Yale

developed an odd fondness for ale.

Eschewing a glass, it went straight in his ass...

He's clearly gone way b'yond the pale.

[geardaddy]

29. There was an entitled Yalie prick

Who thought accusations wouldn't stick,
He yelled and he cried,
"I didn't do it! She lied!"
Isn't that how exceptionalists tick?

[Harker]

33. Nice rhythm, geardaddy-o

[geardaddy]

35. Thanks!

[malaise]

30. Excellent

Delighted to be #100

[Scurrilous]

31. K&R

[Bob Loblaw]

32. There once was a jurist from Yale

He never once had to post bail
Would drink himself blind
He bitched and he whined
And this dick thinks that he's Alpha male

[Jim Lane]

34. I appreciate your post but I must, with regret, offer a rebuttal.

A limerick writer online
Wrote a poem that he thought was fine.
But it had a clear flaw --
That priv'lege trumps law,
So there's no chance that Brett will do time.

[peekaloo]

36. There once was a jurist from Yale

Whose yearbooks told quite a tale
he righteously goofed
when asked if he boofed
By pulling answers straight out of his tail.

Whose interview redefined "fail"
He's a rapey old snot
But supporters care not
He'll deliver the Koch Brothers' grail

[calimary]

38. LOVE these! Made me try out one, too.

There once was a jurist from Yale
Who spent all his youth chasing tail.
He chugged down the beer
In his victims, struck fear!
Win or lose: a perpetual FAIL.
