The Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form is a very ambitious project to define-or at least pay tribute to-every word in the dictionary in limerick form. So far, they've only worked their way through the letter A and is just starting on B, but there are already plenty of gems. This one, for the word acrostic, is my favorite:

Connecticut-born limerick writer,
He's more of a lover than fighter.
Religion: agnostic,
In love with acrostics,
Seeks Britney but prefers someone brighter.

It's A) a limerick, B) demonstrates what an acrostic is, C) is a full-fledged personal ad and D) a diss to Britney.

language, celebrity, mockery, fun
