Comic 1082 - Geology

Two geology students from Yeading
Investigating recent spreading
Due to a thrust fault
Had to call a hard halt
And get down to some volcanic bedding.

Original comic here.

This comes late, and I'm still unsatisfied. I think if I knew some geology terms of my own, instead of having to stick to the ones in the comic, the innuendo might have come out a little less clunky.

Comic 1039 - RuBisCO

There once was a chemist from Grays
Who bumped uglies in deviant ways.
For an extra frisson
To keep him turned on
His "safe word" was ribulosebiphosphatecarboxylaseoxegenase.

Original comic here.

I must apologise for going away for a few days without warning. Well, I am back now. The limerick for the next comic will follow quite soon.

Comic 1020 - Orion Nebula

My suspicion has grown very strong
That astronomers all have it wrong.
It's a "sword" to the prudes
But the real cool dudes
Know Orion has flopped out his dong.

Original comic here.

I must say, I have heard this suggested before. It seems very likely that the Ancient Greeks made the same joke.

Comic 1016 - Valentine Dilemma

When choosing your Valentine's trinket
If she can eat, wear, smell or drink it
You're sure to enjoy
Heavy petting ahoy,
But you're shafted if you overthink it.

Original comic here.

Comic 940 - Oversight

A young man from the Adriatic
Was never a fitness fanatic
Till it struck him that humping
Beats all the iron-pumping
He'd do if he went Fitocratic.

Original comic here.

Comic 924 - 3D Printer

Try as I might, I can't top XKCD reader Ann Apolis's excellent limerick for this one. It's simply unbeatable. So, here it is, reproduced from the comments to the last post but two.

It never, alas, takes that long
For technology use to go wrong.
The power to print
Will be just used to mint
A sixteen-inch Bakelite dong.

Original comic here.

Classic comic 162 - Angular Momentum

There once was a girl from Marbella
Who spun like a Spitfire propeller.
The more the girl whirled
The slower th' world twirled
And the more secs she had with her fella.

Original comic here.

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 879 - Lamp

There once was a tramp from Beauchamp
Who wished on a fabulous lamp
"Give me money to spend"
But he rubbed the wrong end
The outcome: he's still poor, and damp.
