This word is begging for a limerick... Anyone want to try?

And I'd presume a brewery would be involved in that limerick.... ;-)

uselessness commented on the word screwery
I was going to try, but couldn't find a third word to rhyme. And using screwery and brewery on the third and fourth lines would be like giving away a joke's punchline too soon.

bilby commented on the word screwery
After trysts at his mistress's screwery
And too-frequently reeking of brewery
The cad copped a lashing
From his wife's tongue a-thrashing
And his marriage is right in the sewery.
