Rhyme suggestions?
I gotta say, I was flattered when @pgames-food announced plans to include my tomfoolery in RimRhymes, but also felt just a bit bad for cluttering up the main mod thread with it. Therefore, I started this discussion thread for the express purpose of suggesting more rhymes for possible (not certain) inclusion; the final word must rest with the mod author.

@pgames, I apologize if I've overstepped. I hope my reasoning is explained well enough, but it's your mod page and I am prepared to delete at your discretion with no reservations or rancor.

However it turns out, I'll start this show:

Three wise men of RimWorld
went to space in a bowl;
And if the bowl had been stronger
this rhyme would be longer!

This little muffalo went to market;
This little muffalo stayed home;
This little muffalo had field grass;
This little muffalo had none;
And this little muffalo cried "Moo moo moo" all the way home.

I saw a ship a-crashing,
a-crashing to the ground,
and oh! it was all filled
with useful things around!
There was furniture in the cabin
and firearms in the hold:
The hull was made of titanium
and the thrusters were made of gold.
The four-and-twenty crewmen
who stood watch on the decks
were four-and twenty boomrats
wearing collars 'round their necks.
The Captain was a duck
with a shield belt on his back;
And when the ship slid to a stop
the Captain said "Quack quack!"

i need to add the one made for asperges mod too
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1745629632

but now that you reminded me of the subforum section i'll probably make an official thread just with a list of (spoilers) for all the ones added so far, along with more info as to which mod it is trying to spread the word about, and links to those mods :)

I hope to have more suggestions later!

That's a neat idea. pgames-food, might consider trying to grab some community content contributions.
Or if you're looking for already popular suggestions to add you might look into Shel Silverstein. His content wouldn't be Rimworld related but his work is pleasant and nostalgic.

Hey, remember Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri?

"A handsome young cyborg named Ace
Would woo women at every base.
But when ladies would glance at
His 'special enhancement'
They'd vanish with nary a trace!"

Poor Ace :sad_creep:

...and I agree about Shel Silverstein's works, but some might easily be paraphrased into RW.
I know some Mother Goose stuff can be :wink_eol:

There once was a man from Nass
Who had balls that were fashioned of brass.
In stormy weather
His nuuts clanked together
And lightning shot out of his @$$.

This thing, all things devours,
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel,
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down!

Maybe they don't have to rhyme, if you think brain-teasers would fit:
There is a room with an all-southern view.
There is a bear in the room.
What color is the bear, and why?

lol for the brass one :)

ah yeah for the main mod, i just wanted to turn my experiences with some mods, into rhyming limericks, but for the upcoming mod we spoke about, some riddles could actually be interesting too :)

for your 2nd one, is it a pickaxe? :)
(if the room doesnt let light in, i cant tell what colour the bear is) :)

Pretty sure the answer is time :D

(well taking a pickaxe to any of the above would do the trick too) :steamhappy:

Yes, the second one is supposed to be time, but you guys are right that a pickaxe is funnier :lunar2019crylaughingpig:

As for the third, a small hint: The only place that could have an all-southern view is the North Pole.
