Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 To be fair, limericks are often (some would say usually or even expected
 to be) offensive.

 The developers of `fortune` appear to be aware of this. The first
 paragraph of the README says:

 {{{
 The potentially offensive fortunes are installed by default on FreeBSD
 systems.  If you're absolutely, *positively*, without-a-shadow-of-a-doubt
 sure that your user community goes berzerk/sues your pants off/drops dead
 upon reading one of them, edit the Makefile in the subdirectory datfiles,
 and do "make all install".
 }}}

 That Makefile contains:

 {{{
 # TO AVOID INSTALLING THE POTENTIALLY OFFENSIVE FORTUNES, COMMENT OUT THE
 # THREE LINES AND UNCOMMENT THE FOURTH LINE.

 # THE THREE LINES:
 FILES+= fortunes2-o limerick murphy-o gerrold.limerick
 BLDS+=  fortunes2-o.dat limerick.dat murphy-o.dat gerrold.limerick.dat
 TYPE=   real

 # THE FOURTH LINE:
 #TYPE=  fake
 }}}

 In order to not deviate too much from the official distribution, what if
 we offered an "+offensive" variant which, when deselected, would perform
 the modifications described in the README/Makefile? I am undecided as to
 whether this variant would default to on or off.

 Alternately, it's possible something has already been done about this
 upstream, however, I do not know if there is an upstream; I don't know if
 this software has a homepage or a newer version. If anyone can locate one,
 let me know.
