------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 The limerick data file included with the fortune port contains many
 offensive, sexually charged limericks; in particular, ones that really
 aren't appropriate for display on a machine in a shared environment.

 As fortune includes a mechanism for avoiding the display of such fortunes
 by default, I would recommend that the limerick data file simply be
 renamed to limerick-o.

 Note that such files already exist in this distribution.  And, just as an
 example, here are what I would say are the two most offensive fortunes
 from murphy-o,
 {{{
 You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think.

 Pity the poor egg;
 It only gets laid once in its life.
 }}}
 and just the first limerick in limerick,
 {{{
 A bad little girl in Madrid,
 A most reprehensible kid,
         Told her Tante Louise
         That her cunt smelled like cheese,
 And the worst of it was that it did!
 }}}
 There are worse ones in there.
