The limerick packs laughs anatomical

Into space that is quite economical

But the good ones I've seen

So seldom are clean

And the clean ones so seldom are comical

There once was a man from Miami

Whose business dealings were quite scammy

He just wouldn't stop

Til he was tricked by a cop

And now he spends time in the slammy

What are they refering to? Is Ireland losing its independence or something?

It's a fash group complaining about immigration

Skullgrid@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 135d

Maybe they should have listened to the president when he gave a speech about even fucking St Patrick being an immigrant.

I'm not Irish, but I loved Micheal Higgins' speeches on St Patrick's day and Xmas/New year. Electing a poet to be a figurehead leads to some amazing speeches.

There are two county Limerick on the map shown, along with a county Death. So the fash group that posted this doesn't even know the counties that they're "losing".

Losing counties to what, Exactly? Someone said immigration, so is it just "lose" by having more immigrants etc?

There was a lady from Reno She lost all her money playing Keno So she lay on her back And opened her crack Now she owns the casino

That might not be quite right because it is from memory.

I have a large purple book of the rudest limericks printed back in the 70s. My parents had it on the bookshelf when I was a kid and boy did that form the sense of humor I have.

There is a multi limerick story of a man that balanced himself on his erect penis as a trick.

Lemme guess, the inset map is Ai slop.

mirshafie@europe.pub · 22 pts · 135d

Obviously so.

I am super excited about AI in general. But I think it's really disheartening to see the lack of critical thinking and non-existent quality control by its users. Seeing a lot of teachers using generative AI to produce assignments and homework for kids, often with really dumb inaccuracies in them.

Even if AI gets better, it won't help if the users don't take any responsibility.

I couldn't tell if any of the names are real without looking it up, but the duplicates caught my eye

The way Derry looks like it's photoshopped is weirding me out.

I imagine it originally said Londonderry, and that confused the fuck out of the plastic paddy that got an ai to make this.

But they didn't notice ARMagh under it.

There are other smooth bits on the map so it's probably just the AI shitting the bed.

Big fan of Down.

dfyx@lemmy.helios42.de · 8 pts · 135d (1 reply)

That one actually exists and is at least roughly the right location and shape.

Somewhere my very fenian grandfather is spinning in his grave at my piss poor knowledge of Irish counties.

I'm trying to come up with a joke about the county called Tyrone that isn't racist

scutiger@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 135d (3 replies)

Tyrone is a real county in Northern Ireland.
