| The clerihew is a very short silly poem. Four lines, first of which is a name, two rhyming couplets, no consideration for metre, rhymes shoe-horned in. I challenge you to come up with some about games/gaming characters/places/items/whatever. - Examples:
Pikachu Can be friends with you If you catch it Or make a Pichu happy after you hatch it.
Xenoblade Was an RPG made With great care; shame about the pain To my ears whenever I fight with Reyn.
Drunkalilly Can be quite silly; He's among the funniest of men though When writing pieces for Gintendo.

| That is absolutely top clerihewage stuff Drunka. Not that I expected any less. The last one gets a Mas and Duck's aren't technically clerihews because the first line doesn't rhyme with the second. However they are great poems all the same, and I'm thinking of expanding the thread to all sorts of gaming poems (I'm quite fond of limericks myself). Thought simple was probably best to start off with. And Zero's is too good. ![Tongue](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_tongue.png) He's actually adhering to metre and stuff, which is a rookie clerihew error. You want it to be more like this, Zero: Rosalina Wishes that Google Image searching her name was cleaner: Growing up on a spacestation Isn't great for sexual education. |

| Brigadier General Jack Vandham, Supreme Commander of the Defense Force of the Colony of New Los Angeles. Yes that was all one sentence, his name is really longeles. Rhyming is especially hard on mira, harder than on earth. But earth got blown up, so I'm not sure what that comparison is worth. |

Listened to it about five times, doing immense damage to my psyche. His accent makes it really hard to tell. I think you're probably right, but it's bloody tricky. The international phonetic alphabet Is not immediately easy to get, But I might indeed have been outdone by Nintenduck. Damn. |
