Let It Be Known: I Am One Of Those Rare New Yorkers Who Actuallylikes Pigeons, But I Still Think This

Let it be known: I am one of those rare New Yorkers who actually likes pigeons, but I still think this song is the bee's knees.

No pigeons were harmed in the making of this film.

...probably.

Edit: Turn on the Closed Captioning - it makes the entire experience feel like an avant-garde art film.

Too soon?

Hoitily-toitily

SNL's Samberg had

Asked an alluring young

Lady to dance.

Finding some privacy

Andy excitedly,

Anti-climactically

Jizzed in his pants.

Math! It's delicious !

I generally adhere to the "traditional" classification of limericks; that is, the poem must be dirty, perverted, somehow sex-related, or simply gross to qualify as a "proper" limerick. However, every once in a while I come across a "clean" limerick that I like so much that I have to make an exception. The anonymous poem below is one of such exceptions.

A mathematician named Klein

Thought the Möbius loop was divine.

Said he: "If you glue

The edges of two,

You'll get a weird bottle like mine."

If you are not familiar with the concept Klein bottles or Möbius loops, I highly suggest utilizing Google and/or Wikipedia as they are quite weird and a lot of fun (and you can easily make yourself a Möbius loop to play with!).

For further reading: Acme Klein Bottles has a whole page of Klein bottle cartoons and limericks. It's awesome; you should check it out.

I will formally conclude this post with some spiffy Möbius loop/Klein bottle animation.

And finally, a Klein bottle hat that I might just have to order for myself...

It's always the quiet ones...

There once was a lady named Heather

Who seemed frail and as light as a feather.

But do not be fooled,

'Cause she'll have you schooled

When she's got you in handcuffs and leather. 

- This wonderful poem was written by my friend Raph: may your mind never truly escape the gutter.

Double Dactyl VI

Jacobin-smackobin Jean-Paul Marat took in Bathtime most leisurely; Loving the soak,

It soothed ev’ry problem Dermatological, But Corday came creeping; Caused him to croak.
