I don’t like radio anymore, only podcasts. Radio is people telling you what to like, podcasts are ACTUALLY what you like.

There once was a fellow called Chaucer Who liked to drink tea from a saucer But he gave it all up And went back to the cup When chastised that he couldn’t be coarser!

I have a new pet peeve Which I found at the local peeve sanctuary And I took it home To live with all my other peeves It is certainly my biggest pet peeve And it is more annoying Than all the others Put together So I might have to take it back Because unfortunately It’s making me Peevish.

Poetic heights John Keats was only five foot one But look at all the work he’s done Lord Byron? He was six feet tall Yet I don’t like his work at all I’d say John Keats was short and sweet And didn’t need to be six feet.

If something’s meant to be jam-packed Then is it packed with jam? You’d end up really sticky Maybe late for an exam, Do not pack things with jam because You’ll get into a mess, You’ll end up covered in the stuff (Like me I must confess).
