Comic 1136 - Broken Mirror

I go round breaking mirrors for fun
It’s smashing in more ways than one!
When I reflect
On my failures inept
I can blame ’em on bad luck – job done.

Comic 1109 - Refrigerator

At midnight, a goblin armada
Creeps silently into my larder
To turn food once delicious
To dangerous dishes
That would scare Don Alonso Quesada.

Comic 1099 - Tuesdays

Terrifying or terrific?
The answer is context-specific.
Endless wings may be bitchin’
In a restaurant kitchen
But on you they’d be kind of horrific.

Comic 1094 - Interview

I applied for a job. Being grilled,
My case sucked the guy in and spilled
Him in my chair. When he
Tried the same thing on me,
I said, “Sorry, that opening’s been filled!”

Original comic here.

Not a comic that lent itself well to the limerick form. Still, only three behind now!

Comic 998 - 2012



The lot of the Mayans is rotten—
In a way, their world-end date is spot on.
Since while we’ll all hear
Plenty of them this year
They’ll then be completely forgotten.

Classic comic 501 - Faust 2.0



There was a young fellow named Kramer
Who neatly escaped Satan's flamer.
He took Old Nick's cheque
But was not darned to heck
All thanks to a fiendish disclaimer.

Comic 887 - Future Timeline



There was a young fellow named Dougall
Who looked up the future on Google.
He now quakes in fear
Convinced that next year
The angels will sound the Last Bugle.

Comic 886 - Craigslist Apartments



If you want an abode with a twist
Where spirits and phantoms persist
Reached only by hiking
Its landlord a Viking
Then you will be liking Craigslist!

Classic comic 373 - The Data So Far



I'd quite like to open my mind
About psychics, and things of that kind,
But so far all the data's
Supporting the haters
And leaving believing behind.

Comic 875 - 2009 Called



One dark night my iPhone rang twice,
And through some strange roll of Fate's dice
'Twas the past; I kept shtum
About torments to come
And instead we swapped fashion advice.

Comic 740 - The Tell-Tale Beat



Ever since I murdered Daft Punk
And buried their bodies in junk
I've found it astounding
My building's resounding
With monotonous pounding (thunk... thunk...)


Original comic here.

This is the comic that first inspired me to write an XKCD-based limerick, so it's only right that it should be my first post on the new site.
