there once was a girl from Albania
who had quite a sensitive labia
when it was time to get down
no man would frown
until he would get a whiff of her tilapia

two law professors, Wex Malone and I think, Prosser, used to swap limericks, but this one was the best and final.

there once was a young man name wex
who had diminutive organs of sex
when charged with exposure
he kept his composure
and pled "minimis non curat lex"

I learned at least one of these (maybe both) rooting around in my dad's old Playboy magazines when I was in middle school back in the 80s.

A beachboy who loved to have fun
kept screwing a girl in the sun
while his arse being bare
cooked to medium rare
the girl kept exclaiming, "Well done!"

A CIA agent named Glover
begged head from a quick witted lover
who said, "Your erection
has condom protection.
Would your boss like my blowing your cover?"

It's curious that I've remembered these for so long. It's also a bit curious to realize I apparently spent time reading Playboy vs simply looking at that age.

There was once a young man from Trent
Who had a dick so long it was bent
To save his wife trouble, he put it in double
So instead of coming, he went

I'm legitimately worried about myself. I just read that as lime-Ricks. It was only after I clicked the thread that I realized that I may be a moron.

No lie, sure, as teenagers and young lads we saw them just for the naked ladies, but I’m pretty sure that gentleman actually read them for the articles. Sure we can appreciate the female form, but after you see enough of them it’s better to have a stimulating read or a good joke.

the bartender made a lime Rickey,
Then he stirred the drink with his dickey,
For his big bosomed guest,
With a sip she expressed,
“What a taste! Fruity, salty and sticky!”

I take that as high praise coming from a distinguished cunning linguist such as yourself

I recall it being commonly said in those old days that Playboy's journalism was quite good, which was brilliant on their part. I can imagine a good number of annoyed wives confronting their husbands over the having them. But to the extent there were good articles, they could just point out the pictures are nice, but look at this fascinating coverage of the Iran Contra affair. Perfect cover until, as 777 says, the pages got sticky.

There was a young woman from France,
Who got on a train in a trance,

Everyone fricked her,
Except the conductor,

He shot off his load in his pants.

There was an old Portuguese bloke,
Went to sleep but he never awoke,
Laid for years on his back,
Then had a heart attack,
When his buxom nurse gave him a stroke
