It seems difficult to imaine that I would wish to ask questions based on well-known nursery rhymes, doesn't it? Well, if you are a reular visitor perhaps it is not too difficult to imaine.
Let us bein with.....
eorie Porie, puddin' and pie,
Kissed the irls and made them cry.
When the boys came out to play,
eorie Porie ran away.
Why did all the irls cry when eorie Porie kissed them?
Because he had puddin' and pie all over his face and when he kissed the girls, he mussed up their frocks.
Of course!

Onion breath.

Wouldn't you cry if someone named Georgie Porgie kissed YOU?!! :) Just visualize. YUCK!

Cuz he was hot and all, but he preferred boys, so they knew there was no chance of a long-term relationship.

That studded tongue of Georgie's is so unpleasant!

He didn't use Dial.

He had stinky breath and he was all hot and sweaty. Wouldn't you be if your name was Georgie Porgie?

Because he was kissing ALL the girls, and they all wanted to be "the one."

Too many anchovies on the ol' pizza before hand.

Because George IV - the fellow that this nursery rhyme refers to - was an amorous and amoral scoundrel. Just to prove I was listening during at least one history lesson.

Because he had boy germs!

Georgie desperately needed a tic tac.
Posted by: True Jersey Girl | April 20, 2005 at 12:13 PM
Georgie was just a notoriously bad kisser.
Posted by: christine | April 20, 2005 at 12:15 PM
Because Georgie-Porgie was in his late forties and had been convicted twice on related charges.
Posted by: golfwidow | April 20, 2005 at 01:06 PM
Because Georgies Porgies last name was: Bush.
Oh, is that the secret service at my door, again? That was quite fast this time.
Posted by: elle | April 20, 2005 at 01:23 PM
Because when Georgie Porgie went to kiss the girl they noticed that his teeth (what few he had) were green and absessed.
Posted by: Cara | April 20, 2005 at 01:58 PM
Wow, Opus came up with the real answer. I didn't even stop to think if there WAS a real answer.

He totally broke their hearts. Poor girls!
Posted by: tanya | April 20, 2005 at 02:41 PM
Because the girls knew that no one, NO ONE, could replace Sigmund, Carl or Alfred. EVER.
Posted by: Sigmund, Carl and Alfred | April 20, 2005 at 03:23 PM
because he just cut the cheese?
Posted by: Cyndy | April 20, 2005 at 03:28 PM
Because he kissed the girlS. Plural. Why can't that guy commit???
Posted by: bari | April 20, 2005 at 03:40 PM
Because of what he hissed as he did about spreading rumors about them and the poor saps believed he had any power over them, at least til they realized that banning together they would run him out of town if he didn't go of his own free will first.

Cooties.
Posted by: Mamacita | April 20, 2005 at 04:59 PM
Because, well you see, Georgie kissed them and told them he was the devil.
Okay that's a little dark, but everything else was taken!!!! I have to get in here earlier tomorrow.
Posted by: Raehan | April 20, 2005 at 05:17 PM
I always visualised Georgie Porgie as a pig and I guess being kissed by a pig would be quite scary
