A Rude Limerick About the Rude

Rude limericks tie for first with prurient ones for most “likely to get read”

Limerick on the theme of an “H.R.” prompt, for “How Rude”

How rude that they clap just a single.

Do they think that will give us a tingle?

The readers that clap

Like they’re giving a slap

Deserve to eat shit on a shingle.

And, how rude is that of me to write? But, sometimes stuff just oozes outta ya and ya gotta write it down.

My eternal gratitude to Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她) at The Brain is a Noodle for the original prompt, and Rochelle Silva for tagging me with it. No “how rude” for them!

I am aware some may not know it is possible to clap more than once.
