While limericks are great
They do not always satiate
They are too light
I need to write
And just go on and expatiate

Just remember, you can’t spell “expatriate” without “expatiate.”
To: Red Badger
Instead of a limerick, I will expatiate:
After an extremely bitter divorce, the wife of a hedge fund mogul went to his house to pick up their kids after their weekend with dad. While waiting for them in the living room, she noticed his brand-new quarterly bonus check, a seven-figure amount of which she would not get a share, since it was earned post-divorce. In a fit of rage, she shoved the check into her mouth and proceeded to consume it.
When her friends heard about what had happened, the gossip mill started going full-bore. The opening phrase was usually: Did you hear about the ex pay she ate?

The expatriate expatiated on his expiation.
To: Red Badger
The effete and loquacious expatriate,
Was called upon to expatiate.
“We should have open borders!”
(He is just following orders,
And, his white privilege, trying to expiate.)

The verb "to expatiate" (meaning "to expound") is often confused with "to expiate" (meaning "to atone for [sins, etc.]").
I am expatiating on the meaning of these words as expiation for my occasional harshness in pointing out the misuse of words by other FReepers.
Regards,

Well, the haiku form doesn't let me expatiate so I'm not able to bore you for more than 5 seconds. Sad!
When Trump gets irate,
no need to expatiate.
One-forty will do!
