Without the comments, which add nothing of value in this case:

Or with the comment that does add something:

The real content is in the comments, especially when dealing with Tumblr posts.

That's USUALLY so with tumblr, sure, but in this specific case? Not so much IMO 🤷

Too bad that something doesn't adhere to the structure of a limerick.

I disagree.

I found the comments funny and enriched the enjoyment I received from this post.

I first saw this a few years ago (without the pointless comments). Thanks for reminding me of it! I'd wanted to save it somewhere for future reference, but forgot.

But, but, 0 is also a bit...

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

No, it's in fact not a bit, which is exactly what they wrote.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

It's not a byte but it can be a bit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I was just joking a little bit

It's only a limerick if it's filthy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I felt dirty after reading it.
