The Lexus Limerick Challenge (prizes)


branshew

Recommended Posts

Since the last giveaway was a bomb we'll see how this one goes. This one should be more fun for everyone. Maybe a better prize will get you motivated,....... so to the winner of this contest goes the following:

One (1) Lexus Baseball Hat

this is a brand new Flexfit (one size fits all) black hat embroidered w/ the Lexus logo in silver

... and to the runner up:

The LOC static window decal (leftover from the last contest that bombed).

Here's the contest:

Come up with a Lexus Limerick. For those of you who don't know what a limerick is it's a basic 5 line poem with an AABBA rhyme structure. The only rule is that you have to use the word Lexus in the limerick somewhere. The funnier the better.

Here's my go at it:

With quality problems reaching critical mass

Mercedes said: "This too shall Pass."

While German faces were red

Lexus turned to them and said:

"Reliability? Yeah - we kicked your A$$"

You have a couple of days to work on it. Try to get them posted by Friday evening and the winners will be announced on Saturday. Feel free to enter as many times as you want.

There once was a man, rather reckless.

Who enjoyed dangerous things in his Lexus,

Ideas in his head,

almost got him dead

but they killed the poor lexus instead :(

i only put this out here, cause it was me...i was the man. :cries:

OR

With Lexus pushing the limit,

The germans seem kind of timid.

Then Chris Bangle said:

"Hey, Lexus is dead"

But boy we sure gave him a kick in the head.

No PMs for this one. Post it right here in the thread. I think that everyone should enjoy them.

Kewl -

I'm not corporate Lexus (I'd be driving a new LS 430 if that was the case!!). I just had some leftover decals and a few other items that I'm doing some early spring cleaning with.

Army-

Good ones, but your last line needs to rhyme with the first two lines (AABBA pattern.)

Keep em coming

Here you go:

While watching a lexus's motion,

LOC conceived of the notion,

That mechanical laws,

Not an unknown cause,

Ruled the physical worlds automotion.

I treat my Lexus as my baby,

But in near the future maybe,

I will take an Ls for a wirl,

and maybe trade in my pearl,

but I can't see when that day be!

he he he I love my ES300 and yes her

name is pearl.

Another one:

A young lexus motorist from east kent,

Had a front wheel that was bent,

At a local road junction,

The brakes failed to function,

He came to LOC to vent.

I'll add another one:

"The luxury market - we'll take a slice"

Said Toyota "The engineering must be precise"

Ther Germans Succumbed

Lexus became number one

And never has a car been so nice

SK, Blake, NC, SW03ES - where are you guys ???

The all time greatest limerick one of all time, and my all-time favorite joke:

There once was a guy named Bob

Who had red spots on his knob,

The doc threw him out and started to shout

Just wipe off the lipstick you slob!

lmao.....I think you needed to add 'Lexus' in there somewhere bud! :lol:

:cheers:

I will have to say there seem not to be a lot of traffic on this site. I thought this tread would absolutely take off.

This site isn't as busy as some of the others, but there is plenty of good advice without the pretense & juvenility (is that even a word) of the others.

(Although I would have suspected that this thread may have brought out some of the last one.)

'Twas a Canuck who virtually lived in his Lexus

That had a sweetheart waiting at home named Alexis

And when Valentines Day came

Was his neglect of Alex that's sure to blame

For her punching him thrice deep in the solar plexus! :chairshot:

Now the moral of the tale of this Lexus

Is not simply that he should be more attentive to sweet Alexis

But alas it's about

And to be sure, there's no doubt

He must sell the car or forever wonder what s*x is..... :cries:

Thanks to all that participated. There were many good entries which made it all the more difficult to pick a winner so I asked my brother to help out in the judging.

And the Winners are......

Second Place goes to: pearlwhite97ES for his entry below -

I treat my Lexus as my baby,

But in near the future maybe,

I will take an Ls for a wirl,

and maybe trade in my pearl,

but I can't see when that day be!

Please PM me with your addres so I can ship your LOC static decal out next week.

First Place goes to: 94LexusES for the following entry -

My 94 Es is old but yet

Better than most, i bet

With all fun a problem lies

What a surprise

Leaky valve cover gasket.

We found that even though it was a limerick, this one had a haiku type feel to it which fit well with the Lexus theme.

Please PM me with your address so I can get your hat shipped out next week.
