Thanks for the idea, Detrius! SMILEY

The rules for limericks are much more confusing but I think we can let
fly. Just follow the flow and the beat. For those that want
the exercise, surf here for the 'proper' way to do limericks.

In the mean time....

A hacker named Neo once slumbered

Dreaming through dreams unencumbered

Taken away

From his normal day

He told us Machine Days were numbered

There once was a Redpill named Switch

Enduring a peculiar itch

Looking out on the city

And noting with pity

"We humans are living a myth..."

#11300001075 11/14/2005 11:45:03 Re: Matrix Limericks

There was a young silly redpill

Who from ganking was getting a thrill.

He would punt and just murder

And brawl out of order

And say, "I don't zerg, I just chill!"

#11300001079 11/14/2005 12:42:41 Re: Matrix Limericks

"Mister Anderson!" Agent Smith said

"There's a life you have secretly lead.

You're a hacker, but we

Will let you go free,

Here's a bug, and you'll wake up in bed."

On a mission one frequently finds

NPCs of all various kinds.

Nightmares and hackers

And network attackers

And "Some person" who blows our minds.

#11300001083 11/14/2005 16:18:55 Re: Matrix Limericks

A pretty young redpill named Caroline

Was farming for frags for quite some time

She stayed out too late

Met an unkind, sad fate

And got ganked for her code at the hardline.

#11300001091 11/15/2005 05:21:00 Re: Matrix Limericks

I play for zion who rules,

Others believe that zionists are fools

They call us cave monkeys,

But they no longer live in pink mushy,

So I believe that makes you all monkeys too.

#11300001093 11/15/2005 06:39:17 Re: Matrix Limericks

A jumpy machinist named Cleo

Had dreams of flying like Neo

She leapt to the sky

Got swarmed by flies

And wound up in a Zionite video

#11300001098 11/15/2005 10:26:04 Re: Matrix Limericks

One jolly old sniper was hiding

On rooftops. He was fond of finding

Every careless redpill

He could possibly kill

And sometimes gave warnings in writing

#11300001101 11/15/2005 14:18:05 Re: Matrix Limericks

there was a girl fool we name trin,

whose waist was sufficiently thin,

to wrap both arms around,
and hump like a hound,

and make love on the floor at a whim....

Its my first, i'll work on a better one

#11300001102 11/15/2005 14:45:20 Re: Matrix Limericks

"Morpheus" Trinity said

"I really hope Neo's not dead

"Though things look quite grim

"I will see him again

"If not in this sequel, then next"

#11300001104 11/15/2005 21:25:38 Re: Matrix Limericks

If there really wasn't a spoon

and they made some matrix cartoons

kant's evil genius

is what they were feedin us

and we took it as radically new.

Whaddya think?

#11300001105 11/15/2005 23:30:51 Re: Matrix Limericks

Your height's the same - hunter, or hunted.
Nobody's too tall or too stunted.
When asked "Why, oh why?"
Came the Walrus' reply:
"It's so interlock works when you're punted."

#11300001110 11/16/2005 12:46:37 Re: Matrix Limericks

There once was a coder named Sarah

Who tried making films down at Mara

She kept flipping bits

But went into fits

When PVP lag blurred her camera

#11300001111 11/17/2005 02:40:30 Re: Matrix Limericks

I love these!

An Agent named Smith tried to win

a piece of freedom so thin

But along came Neo

and his friend Leo

and threw his plans in the bin

Cypher said yes sir

to captain of nebucadnezzar

But he fooled them all

ate steak at the mall

and ended up a whole life lesser

When a white rabbit came

the effect wasn't lame

it lead him to her

and she came quite near

and whispered the rules of the game

SMILEY

#11300001113 11/17/2005 04:37:34 Re: Matrix Limericks

i loaded up guns and kung fu

invited my friends and my crew

but a ten-year-old slacker

who loaded up hacker

hit me with stun one and stun two

surrounded by mervs with red flags

i cursed them for noobzorz and slags

so rather than stone me

they zerged up and owned me

and i lost all of my new red frags

he dressed in asian pajamas

and had a long nose like bananas

if once did i kill him

i killed him a million

and never did get my bandanna

#11300001115 11/17/2005 06:24:54 Re: Matrix Limericks

Awesome job people!

Via Cell call from Tyndal I was tasked

With killing some exiles in masks

I went to the target,

Killed a succubus harlot

And finally levelled at last

#11300001139 11/18/2005 11:41:03 Re: Matrix Limericks

While strolling the streets of the city

With alleys and dumpsters quite gritty

   I encountered a lass

   She attacked me, with sass

And erased me with no bit of pity

People say that we Agents are mean

Our appearance always causes a scene

   So I tracked down that lass

   And it came to pass

That I paid back her 'kindness' extreme

#11300001142 11/18/2005 16:12:31 Re: Matrix Limericks

On the Vector-Hostile you might

Find the actual meaning of fright

When you're stabbed in the back

After ugliest hack

And then told by the victor "gf"

#11300001143 11/18/2005 16:29:29 Re: Matrix Limericks

One exile once said "Every action

Will subsequently have a reaction."

Then his wife proved him right,

Helped the One in his fight

And with clearly expressed satisfaction.

An access node i will
hack with tremenduous thrill
So noone can track
my movements back
and shoot me and say it's a drill

Have you seen Mr. Andersson?
he's not exactly Flander's son
he was awakened a while back
And to the matrix he jack'd
To bring peace while the fight was on

A great, gross man with a drill
Swallowed a small red pill
He sat in a chair
with his foots in the air
And felt a slight bit ill

The bullets came flying
While he was lying
Dodging them all
Like thieves in the mall
And soon he felt like dying

Smith's and Neo's fight
was done with Kung-Fu all right
with fists in the air
Neo fought like a bear
And the fight went on all night

But with the morning came
A sunrise not lame
Made by Sati it was
oh so nice and gash
and the best the oracle could name

#11300001172 11/21/2005 08:10:15 Re: Matrix Limericks

The Archivist Broker said to me

There's lots up there to do and see

Ninjas and Robots

And bloodsucking Goths

Not to mention the buckets of X.P.

#11300001178 11/21/2005 22:19:59 Re: Matrix Limericks

One of the better posts ever SMILEY

#11300001184 11/22/2005 06:58:36 Re: Matrix Limericks

heh. so much fun when stuck at work and not 'jacked in'...

While running some missions, post Beta

My team was as sharp as a razor

The missions would fly

Since we had a spy

And we'd save all the looting for later...

#11300001208 11/25/2005 16:06:18 Re: Matrix Limericks

Redpill, it is pointless to pout

If you have just been taken out,

When you can instead

just /tell off your head!

At least till your timer runs out... :smileyvery-happy:

#11300001209 11/25/2005 16:29:16 Re: Matrix Limericks

Then again, when a ganker can't tell

When his roaring rampage he should quell,

It's annoying... Alas!

This also shall pass!..:robotwink:

But at least it's amusing as hell...

#11300001226 11/29/2005 09:32:01 Re: Matrix Limericks

Cryptos, the quirky magician

Appeared here and there, now and again

He prophesied doom

And city wide gloom

And told everyone who stopped to listen

#11300001229 11/29/2005 18:51:42 Re: Matrix Limericks

In limerick one can express

One's goofyness, out to excess

And nobody can

Control it or plan

If it will come out as success. :smileywink:

#11300001256 12/05/2005 09:32:05 Re: Matrix Limericks

Spies are both careful and wiley to boot
Your viral resistance is moot
A Punt's introspection
Ignores Viral Deflection
And leaves you much too weak to loot

#11300001274 12/09/2005 10:49:25 Re: Matrix Limericks

"OMG I have married a coder!"

Said one redpill. "I wish he was older...

And bolder, and wiser,

And all-around nicer...

And I think he's an XP freeloader..."

#11300001280 12/10/2005 11:09:06 Re: Matrix Limericks

We're looking at combat revisions

That surely will change all our visions

We will go back and crunch

Our bonus point bunch

And revisit each level's decisions

#11300001281 12/11/2005 08:55:03 Re: Matrix Limericks

MA at last shows its worth

As Hackers get a long needed Nerf

Punches and kicks

And no sneak-stun tricks

Should give the Player base much needed girth

#11300001296 12/14/2005 14:24:16 Re: Matrix Limericks

When Vector, Syntax and Recursion

Complete QA server conversion,

Which server will win

The battle within?

Who knows with the new combat version?

#11300001320 12/20/2005 12:07:06 Re: Matrix Limericks

One cheerful assassin named Flo

Had holiday fun in the snow.

She'd go into "Sneak"

And punt every geek

And gleefuly shout "Ho-ho-ho!"

The QA server delayed got

There might be some mighty plot

We can't test

And we can't fest

So there's no fun for us lot.

One valiant gunner named Phil

Met a girl whose beauty could kill.

When asked on a date

She said: "Sorry, mate,

I'm a guy and your chances are nil."

#11300001366 01/01/2006 05:09:02 Re: Matrix Limericks

The Walrus has gone on his break.

But Rarebit still seems to make

Appearance in threads

With witty things said

All regarding a liking of steak.

(Reference to Cypherites if ya don't get it)

#11300001489 01/11/2006 13:28:55 Re: Matrix Limericks

Whether Vector, Recursion or QA
Ask any of us and we will say
"We Children will Code
What you need to load
Whether Hacker or Patcher or MA..."

Alfie, a wiley young miner
Found out that tapping was finer
Than battling the mobs
Like everyday slobs
And now spends all his time at the diner

Now I am truly immortal!

I just found this thread, so here goes:

There once was a man named Merv
with a woman he didn’t deserve
He often baked cake
So women would make
him into a cheap hors d’oeuvre!

:smileywink:

#11300001594 01/22/2006 18:15:12 Re: Matrix Limericks

There once was a man named Walrus,
who loved eating many a mollusk.
He dressed in black,
with bleach on his slacks,
and laughed when he saw Ghost's baldness.

Limerick to come, once I come up with something that rhymes with "Flood", that isn't "blood".

A CSR made the decision
To ban without due precision
People were shooed
And some were abused
As subscribers sneered with derision.

After jacking back in to the Matrix
I found myself with many new tricks
With fancy new skills
And new mobs to kill
And lots of new trick shots and jump kicks

With so many fights, it was cluttered
To Camon we went
To RP and vent
Without all the lag, it's like butter...

From the beginning we were on the scene
Coding betwixt and between
For Meros or Zions
We coded like lions
And now we are finally Machine

#36300012211 07/31/2006 16:04:11 Re:Matrix Limericks

Through all of these limericks I saw,

One million and one different flaws,

while themes were the same,

only difference the name,

Most left my mind drifting in awe.

#36300024287 08/14/2006 14:03:53 Re:Matrix Limericks

A flaw or a glitch in the Code
Acceptable, I do suppose
   Rare frags I wrangled
   And Code Bits I mangled
Done for the others to load
