Iphone four teething trouble

On launch day many people did stop,
In the queue outside the O2 shop,
They would spend their cash,
On phones that cannot do flash,
And with bugs that made the phone quite a flop.

…

So to phone you have to hold it just right,
Unless you can mount a good legal fight,
You could just run an app,
On the phone that is crap,
And use a landline instead of this shite.

The Joy of Nags

There once was a persistent nagger,
Who tried to find men that she’d badger,
She’d go on and on,
‘Til the men had all gone,
And there was noone left who would still shag her.

In Defence of the Geek (and against all those “cool” people with air for brains)

Some people will look down on a geek,
Which really is demonstrating some cheek,
These people are sick,
And totally thick,
As they live their pathetic existence each week.

The Beautiful People

There are some people who are quite mathematic,
Who are capable of feats arithmetic,
They sit on their bums,
As their brains do some sums,
Yet they are perceived by many people as tragic.

The Banker

Apparantly a type of person left us in a mess,
Our economy’s strength getting less and less,
These people are bankers,
They are such big wankers,
And they are totally full of bs.

If you like to annoy those doing honest work,
And if you don’t mind coming across as a berk,
Become a management consultant,
Which will lead to the resultant,
Consequence of you being labelled a jerk.

Accountancy and Lawyers

There once was a successful lawyer,
Who would sue you as soon as he saw ya,
He was a bit of a tit,
He was a total git,
But for tonnes of cash he’d fight a case for ya.

There once was a Chartered Accountant,

Stockbroking for bisons

Once a bison was a big name in the city,
Who would buy stocks to add to his kitty,
Other brokers found him scary,
As he was definately more hairy,
And he was also no doubt far more whitty.

Somerset v Sussex 25th June (Somerset FY)

At Taunton in the afternoon sun,
Sussex got 25 all within over one,
But all out for one five nine,
So all ended fine,
As Somerset within 19 overs won.
