Comic 897 - Elevator Inspection



No certificate here, but a draft
Is on file. Hooray! How we laughed!
Let's all go and see!
(But in reality
You won't - so you're getting the shaft.)

Classic comic 622 - Haiku Proof



If you think there are limited primes
You can enter them all and press "times";
Now make it one bigger
And either this figure
Is prime, or divides by new primes.

Comic 896 - Marie Curie



When buffers bang on about Curie
It brings me to boiling fury.
Our history's swimmin'
With brilliant women
So don't act like she's the whole story.

Readers from the north-east of England may be able to ignore the "half-rhyme" tag for this limerick.

Classic comic 75 - Curse Levels



I hope that you won't think me blunt
Or pulling some ludicrous stunt
But you're a gosh-darn-it
Dum diddly chug-tarn-it
Fil-fol-de-rol crud-cuddling idiot.


Original comic here.

Squeamish, moi?

Comic 895 - Teaching Physics



That rubber-sheet image of gravity
Has quite a large logical cavity
But the maths is a bore
So please just ignore;
It's hardly the depths of depravity!

Comic 894 - Progeny



The peaks that computers are reaching
In guessing and chessing and speeching
Make humans redundant
In matters abundant -
The only thing we're good at's teaching.

Comic 893 - 65 Years



Our drive to send men into space
Is no longer moving apace;
Not quite decades seven
Post-Apollo 11
We'll be once more a planet-bound race.
