<center></center> # The influx of Limericks has brought a smile towards consensus. Thank you everyone! ## Humour - or humor - for the "non-u" fraternity - only English Speakers will get that! Is a wonderful and powerful tool. ## Lots of talk of Golos of late ... of so: <center>Lamenting, cursing at my post I railed at no one, at the most The votes were lean No pay, foreseen It’s perestroika and glasnost **Have a great weekend**</center> ## Follow @ebryans for Content: [<center></center>](https://steemit.com/@ebryans)
This is my limerick entry: A steemer wanted to make a post That would help him earn the most Thinking on the shitter He hacked Trump's twitter And retired somewhere on the coast.
