Chief, "And now a great song from the famous composer of Grayson Classical Music Runs-for-Celery. Hit it Mange."

<Damn it Chief, you let Honorvers Humor or lack thereof get on page two again!>

Chief shrugging, "Sorry, perhaps repeating joke making instructions for all the new bees will bring forth new jokers. The old Chief's instructions on changing jokes into Honorverse jokes for Honorverse Humor or lack thereof:"

pokermind wrote:Listen up snotty jokers of the Honorverse the old Chief is going to give some lessons:

The first is a paraphrase of an old Rastus and Liza jokes the raciest and sexist jokes of my youth and in their original form the Duckk would be on me like a duck on a June-bug.

Twelve-year-old Raul Alexander-Harrington is talked into looking over the wall of a nearby nudest colony my his young chum. While peering over the wall standing on his chum's shoulders a knockout curvacious blond hoves into view.

Young Raul jumps off his friend's shoulders running and screaming. His friend tackles him and asks, "Raul why are you running so hard and screaming?"

"My mothers told me if I looked over that wall I would turn to stone, and something is getting hard already!"

A staple of sick humor even worse than light-bulb jokes were the Dead Baby Jokes, here is a paraphrase set in the Honorverse:

How does a dead Havenite Dolest cross the road?

Stapled to a chicken.

Then there were the Elephant jokes, to paraphrase:

How does the Hexapuma hide in small trees on Sphinx?

He climbs to the top, paints his claws red, and prey thinks its a cherry tree.

See Snotties almost any joke you know can be adapted to the Honorverse.


<Come on Image try it. Perhaps changing an Austrilian joke, 'New Zealand, where men are men and sheep are nervous," hmm, 'Mesa, where Genies are Genies and near sheep are nervous?'>

Okay, some low-brow humor, limerick-style:

That pretty, young admiral from Sphinx
She can’t keep herself out of high jinks
Every time she gets home
Hamish gets her alone,
And she can’t even get forty winks!

Here's another. Sorry, I can't help it, I'm on a roll...

That redoubtable admiral Gold Peak
For her Empresses foes she did seek
That tenth fleet, it is mean
And now Talbott is clean,
But for Mesa it looks rather bleak

More nonsense:

Our wise Empress ruling from Landing,
Has standards that are quite demanding.
Parliament gives her grief
High Ridge gives no relief,
Yet her Empire keeps on Expanding!

- or -

There once was a treecat called Mange
Who was bored, so he looked for a change.
Then he teamed up with Poker -
And became quite a Joker
Now that bonded pair – boy, are they strange!

Poker, Mange, you guys can take a little jabbing, right?

Come on, it wasn't THAT bad, was it?

The once was a power tech Named Stileman
Who ended up being quite a vile man
With the skinsuit of Ginger
he messed, her to injure
But got his ass handed to him by Wanderman

Did you hear about the Courageous Honor Harrigton?
I did! I know she soon became a Star Knight of her kingdom!
She has also proven to be completely Reliant and dependable as an officer!
She has proven to have the usual Manticore Gift ability to be utterly deadly at what she sets her mind to!
I agree, but why then is she still such a Trojan Horse to the SLN?

Chief, "Good job mister Pushmar, Sir."

Mange. <Another of my imaginary friends has a comment, Dot Warner, host of the Anamaniacs Poetry Corner.>

<I was thinking of asking Bullwinkle of Bullwinkle's Poetry Corner, but he might be a tad before your time, youngling. After all you live right next to Whats-a-matter U :twisted: >

[To explain the inside joke between a pair Idahoans, Washington State University in Pullman, Washington is next door (eight whole miles) to University of Idaho in Moscow. WSU is jokingly called by U of I Students, or used to be anyway, the Zoo, or Whats-a-matter U from the old Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.]
