Archie Bunker

A cranky old man that rules his household from his armchair. There isn't one he doesn't scold. With jabbing comments and taunts; feels he can say what he wants. A shameful big mouth, hardheaded and bold. His chauvinist views; women with boobies were created to make meals and babies. He still lives in the stone age putting people in a rage. Crazed old man, no respect for the ladies. 2/4/2018 Poetry Contest: Limerick 4 Sponsored by: Joseph May Syllable count for both: 10,10,7,7,10 10,10,7,7,10 https://www.howmanysyllables.com/syllable_counter/ is counting...

Eve, great limericks on that opinionated old man, and I enjoyed the video too. I wonder if that show would be accepted in this day and time, I think not !

I like this one; it was a great show in its day but, sometimes I think we are regressing back to the past. We just haven't come that far.

Yes! Such people still exist and I have seen one in a shopping mall recently, showing his dominance over his lady .. Huh ... :(

Yes, it still exist ... it is a shame. And the women will not fight back they cower into their little cocoons. Thank you for your visit and reading my poem, Swetha. Hugs Eve
