There was once a man from Nantucket...

[Deja Q]

I keep hearing references to a joke with that line, but nobody ever says the actual joke.

What did this man fron Nantucket do that's supposed to be funny?

1. Whose thumb was so long he could suck it

2. It's the rudest of all possible limerics......WARNING, EXPLICIT LYRICS

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Whose **** was so long he could suck it,
He said with a grin
As *** rolled down his chin
If my nose was a **** I could **** it.

[Deja Q]

3. Ah... right up there with "There was once a lady from Venus"

Thank you Commander Data! :evilgrin:

But thank you for the edification! :-) I managed to get all the rude bits figured out, but it did take a while for me to figure out "If my nose was a ****"...

4. Remember that we English use the C word more casually than you...

The very rude C word.

6. Interesting. I've heard it with slightly different words...

the last two lines,

As he wiped off his chin,
If my ear was a **** I could **** it.

[Catch22Dem]

7. That's the version I know

[SmileyBoy]

5. "There once was a woman from China...

...who had a popsicle stick.. huh-huh-huh huh huh huh-huh huh huh...." - Butt-Head

[MisterP]

8. who was crammed into a bucket

and wailed, curse you, Lear!

9. There is also a clean version

Out of the depths of my childhood, I dredge up:

There once was a man from Nantucket
Who kept all his cash in a bucket
His daughter named Nan
Ran away with a man
And as for the bucket -- Nan tuck it.

[BiggJawn]

10. There's lots of versions...

There was an old man from Nantucket,
Who's **** was so long he could suck it.
After sucking a while,
He declared with a smile,
"If my ear was a ****,
I would **** it."

or

and He said with a grin,
as he wiped off his chin,

And now for something totally diferent:

A do-it-yourselfer named Alice,
used a Dynamite stick for a Phallus,
They found her Vagina
in North Carolina,
and half of her Anus
near Dallas.
