Minor Catastrophe

A young lad once got caught in his zipper An unfortunate case of the ripper He shed lots of tears Never lost his fears Of peeing in his new bedroom slipper.

Ending rhyme is hilarious. Painful getting to it though.

I'd say that was a major, Milt, and it hurts. Great limerick, love it.

I suspect they were lending a helping hand to the young lad, Rob. If he peed in his slippers, they were probably a bit pissed off!
