You've come to this page, so let's make it clear, It's time to Describe Rhymes on a Dime Here! It's the habit of some to speak in Sublime Rhyme, For no apparent reason, all of the time. This isn't for when they are quoting or reciting, Nor when they are rapping, nor when they are writing; Only when speaking off the top of their head Does this trope apply: Let it not be misread. We don't want to be rude, But must also exclude, Literature written completely in verse, Like William Shakespeare or Homer, the first. The character need not speak in rhyme all the time, But often enough That excusing it's tough. Poetry or rap can still be included, If all other modes of expression are precluded. More often than not, (For they distract from the plot) The part of the rhymer Is a supporting part-timer Confined to the background, As their schtick can confound. When their medium's rap, It can fall in the trap, Of Totally Radical, for often it's crap. For bonus rewards, One may include words, That one cannot rhyme, Without committing word crime, Like "orange" and "banana"… Boooooornana. (See?) If your entire language is based on this trope, Then you might be a Strange Syntax Speaking dope. This could also lead to a long Rhyming List, In which "that" is rhymed with this, this, and this. Or to a Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion, Which does help to break up the pattern once in a while… Or a Double Subversion not seen from a mile. |

Jake and Amir, the hosts of If I Were You, love this trope. Amir even began one podcast with an endorsement for one of their sponsors entirely in rhyme. Then there's their CollegeHumor webseries Jake and Amir, where this is a recurring Verbal Tic of Amir, particularly exemplified in the "Scroll" episodes, where he'll read a nonsensical rhyming Top Ten List. There's also Jake's Mad Libs Catch Phrase loosely taking the form of "a [noun] for this [rhyming noun] makes the [plural noun] [third rhyme]" ("A goatee on top of my throatee makes the girls say 'Ay, papi!'," "A chinstrap for this thin chap makes the fat booty go clap"). |

A Penny Arcade strip once featured Gabe trying his hand at this. Of course, Tycho's vocabulary is far too extensive to merely throw in a 'Purple' or 'Orange'... instead, he works 'acquiesce' into the end of a sentence, with dire consequence. Chicken press. |

To prove that this is a sign that Dagonet's programming is flawed, King Arthur challenges Dagonet to speak without rhyming, then orders him to do so—and Dagonet completely locks up. Because of his broken programming (based on King Arthur's), he has to talk like this. | |

Ultra Fast Pony portrays Zecora as a rapper, complete with a backing beat when she spits her verses. Of course, her skills are the result of brainstorming rhymes in her free time, and she'll talk normally if people catch her off-guard (or she just doesn't give a damn). And most of her raps only rhyme because they abuse Word Salad Lyrics. | |

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: The Evil Queen when preparing the poisoned apple. Also, Snow White speaks this way at the beginning and end of the "With a Smile and a Song" sequence. The Queen's Magic Mirror mainly speaks in rhyme, with the exception of two lines. |

Shakespeare used blank verse to show that a character was highly educated, whether it's the monk from Romeo and Juliet or the gods in A Midsummer Night's Dream. In Hamlet, the title character normally speaks in blank verse but speaks in prose when he's feigning madness. |

Batman: In Batman issue #525, Mr Freeze's mooks, Ice and Cube, do this. At least Ice does, speaking after Cube and rhyming with what he said. (This was before Batman: The Animated Series' backstory for Freeze became Ret-Canon'd into the comics). Minor Batman villain Humpty Dumpty also does this, stemming from his fixation on nursery rhymes. In Arkham Asylum: Living Hell this is actually important to the climax; as noted below, the legions of Hell speak in verse, and those who do so naturally, like Humpty, are the equivalent of demonic-to-English translators. The Mad Hatter sometimes does this, but it depends heavily on who's writing the story. In some cases, like The Long Halloween, he speaks entirely in quotes from the poems of Lewis Carroll; in other books and media like the TV show Gotham, he'll slip into rhyme (either more Carroll poems or his own verse) when he's feeling stressed or leaving Batman clues to his crimes; and in some—see the entry on Gotham Central below—he doesn't rhyme at all. |

Then there's their CollegeHumor webseries Jake and Amir, where this is a recurring Verbal Tic of Amir, particularly exemplified in the "Scroll" episodes, where he'll read a nonsensical rhyming Top Ten List. There's also Jake's Mad Libs Catch Phrase loosely taking the form of "a [noun] for this [rhyming noun] makes the [plural noun] [third rhyme]" ("A goatee on top of my throatee makes the girls say 'Ay, papi!'," "A chinstrap for this thin chap makes the fat booty go clap"). | |

Some segments of Disney's package films are almost entirely done in rhyme. This includes "Casey at the Bat" from Make Mine Music (justified as it was based on the poem of the same name), parts of "The Flying Gauchito" from The Three Caballeros, "Johnny Appleseed" and "Pecos Bill" from Melody Time, and some parts of "Bongo" from Fun and Fancy Free. In addition, in Melody Time, emcee Buddy Clark speaks this way in all segments with the exceptions of "Bumble Boogie", "Johnny Appleseed", and "Pecos Bill". | |

John the Don from Motu Patlu has a tendency to speak in rhyme (example: in "Animal Instinct", he makes a rhyme about how nobody will find him in the forest, since the Hindi word for forest, "van", rhymes with the "Don" in John the Don's name). One of his minions, Number 1, often thinks he is making a poem when he speaks in rhyme and says he likes the poem. This is averted in the English dub where John the Don speaks normally, though Number 1 still praises him for "speaking like a poet". | |

Pokémon: The Series: In the TPCi-dubbed episodes, the Team Rocket trio speak almost entirely in rhymes, alliterations, and dated-but-still-catchy phrases. This is not to mention, of course, their Once an Episode recitation of the Team Rocket Motto, or their habit of stopping mid-action to sing songs based on popular tunes. This is likely meant as parody, however, as it seems to be an emphasis on how cool Team Rocket really isn't. One segment in "2.B.A. Master": Braggo of the Pokémon Poacher Brothers, a group of one-time villains in "The Mother of all Battles", always spoke in rhyme. |

Crackotage of the Cheat Commandos. Granted, he's a parody of this kind of character and as such, he's not very good at it In an Easter egg at the end of the toon in question where the above dialog takes place, this little exchange is heard: Strong Bad also delves into this in one Strong Bad Email, "ghosts". After scanning Strong Badia to see if it's haunted but finding nothing, he says, "Looks like Strong Badia is ghost-free, proud to be." But then, he discovers an actual ghost, that of his old computer. |

Splash Brannigan in Tomorrow Stories has this as one of his Verbal Tics. When he's not rhyming, he's usually speaking in (extremely convoluted) alliteration | |

Two-Edge, the insane half-elf, half-troll from ElfQuest does this a lot, although he gives it up eventually. The most bizarre aspect of Two-Edge's rhymes is that they actually make a lot of sense once you realise what's going on in his head. |

In the Sgt. Frog anime, Natsumi is horrified to find herself compulsively making many a bad rhyming pun (or "old man joke") after being hit by Kululu's age-increasing gun. | |

Minor Batman villain Humpty Dumpty also does this, stemming from his fixation on nursery rhymes. In Arkham Asylum: Living Hell this is actually important to the climax; as noted below, the legions of Hell speak in verse, and those who do so naturally, like Humpty, are the equivalent of demonic-to-English translators. | |
