No worries, though. You can still take the concept and rhymes and just mold it into a limerick. Check out the first post for tips on making a limerick that flows.
Ah thank you man:lovin:, No wonder why this stuff was so hard…:mad:
There once was a cheater named Vega
Who Psycho Crushered version Mega
It filled the whole screen
And so he has been
Banned on my Dreamcast (From Sega)
The Glorious Haohmaru
Has sword skills that always strike true
But to bat a Pinata
he’ll miss and hit Grandma
And he’ll scream “WTF DID I DO!!!???”
Nice!
Parry Parry Parry–
Too bad I’m married.
But it’s good to recall,
When my world’s in a lull,
How to Gigas a scrub when he’s wary.
I once had a girlfriend in Concord,
(I’d bone her again if I found her,)
In the morning she’d slap me,
But I would be happy,
Because I would scream–“Cross Counter!”
First Attempt :
Good fighters in high regard.
Like how Terry is a Bogard.
Fight all day, fight all night,
then destroy a car.
We thought Third Strike was the last hurrah
But IV is now Capcom’s new star
It has three punches and kicks
And a new button for dicks
The “I WIN” button (for Ultra)
Fail.

Word.
There once was a game called Street Fighter 2
Shotos threw fireballs all colored blue
But one was red
Men scratched their heads
I want to throw a red fireball too
A: Two plus two is four.
A: Add two to that and you get more.
B: In Street Fighter games.
B: Zangief brings the pain.
A: Smash yo’ face through the floor.
In the first you could select one of two
In the next you could pick out of eight
They kept adding more
For the selectable-char whore
Now I can’t find Ken in MVC2, great
I thought the ends of the first,second, and fifth sentences must rhyme to be a limerick.
If you go to the arcade you’ll see some infinites
If you go to a big tournament it’ll be a long distance
So have some fun
And never give up
And you’ll become a force to be reckoned with
its hard plz halp
he has timing, precision and cunning
all the local players found him stunning
to a tourney he showed
SA2ed, kara-throwed
i dont friggin know i guess its a bad one or im dumb i cant end it
ill restart sometime mayb
gunning? funning? i guess unning is a shitty rhyme
Well remember to check the first post to see how a limerick is formed. Which syllable contains the emphasis in a sentence is somewhat important because a limerick is like a very short song, and not just a rhyme. But the difference between lyrics and limericks is that limericks have some specific rules and are intended to also be funny/ironic and crude.
He has his timing and cunning
All the newb players were running
to a tourney he showed
SA 2 , kara-throwed
Learning that Sticks rule is stunning
In this rhyme we have a structure like this
Even with just the structure and no words, it should sound good when you say it out loud with the emphasis on the A’s, and a lighter tone on the b’s, in a simple rhythm like a song.
When coming up with the last line, finding a word to rhyme is sorta less important than the punchline/joke you’re trying to give in the limerick. It may be that working backwards can be easier because you can think of something funny then build around it. With the example above the joke I intended was that the player thought he was the shit, but in the last line it turns out he was an inexperienced pad player who got owned by some experienced stick players at a tournament.
The cool thing is limericks can be rather fun and addicting when you make a few of them in a row. The way that you rhyme them kind of gets stuck in your head and you start thinking of all kinds of ways to rhyme short sentences together. So just have fun with it. Puns, and irony, and simple/lewd/risque forms of humor work very well in limericks. I’m sure most people are familiar with “There once was a man from Nantucket”.
[Edit]: Just keep in mind that the structure can change to how you want, but the structure should be the same in lines 1, 2, and 5. And the second structure should be the same in 3 and 4. But the base structure is yours to design based on what kind of sentence you want.
You guys fucking suck at this game,
You are filling this site up with shame.
I’d show you how to
follow rhyming rules.
But my limerick is equally lame.
When people picked a world warrior chun li
The matches were full of throwing
There were no fireballs
But she’d jump off the walls
And start the next round with more throwing
Dude his game’s hard.
When you learn the tick throws
Opponents will blow and go
Get to the top
Time to wreck shop
And win real dirty and low
