I don't get it...


I enjoyed The Life of Brian and thought The Holy Grail was okay too but I don't get this show. None of the skits made me laugh at all, it's just... lame.

I hereby confirm that this thread fulfils the obligation
imposed by the United Nations that all Monty Python-related
message boards contain a thread entitled "I don't get it..."

Thank you for your polite attention.

But wait a tick - where is the "This Is So Overrated" thread? Where is the "Am I The Only One Who Thinks..." thread? This board won't achieve total stupidity until we have these threads! We can't expect carnoce to shoulder the burden singlehandedly.

I don't think carnoce will be truly happy until we're all chasing her around a park to the sound of "Yakety Sax".

Nice to see "Yakety Sax" finally biting the dust.

Let's hope it lasts for a while.

Shh! Let's just enjoy the peace and quiet...

I'd buy that for a dollar!

I was trying to figure out why your username (Dark Helmet12345) sounded so familiar, then I finally realized it was because I have the same combination on my luggage!

You see?! It's back! We're doomed, I tells ye! DOOMED!

Look on the bright side; it gives us a chance to observe the actions of a really blithering idiot (and as you know, the idiot provides a vital psycho-social service for the community).

reply

True, true.

Of course, there's a fine line between idiocy and mental illness...

reply

Oh, yes. And at this very moment someone we're both familiar has clearly overcome her sanity; she's rolling around on the floor going "Pting! Pting! Pting!"

Having presumably first started with ping pong ball eyes and a funny voice. These things have to be done properly!

reply

And every Sunday she hurries along to Saint Looney up the Cream Bun and Jam - and we all know why.

reply

Is it because she likes to hit herself repeatedly on the head with blunt instruments while crooning?

Well, there's little point to this thread, so let's give the prize to the girl with the biggest tits.

I promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so anyway...

Oh, intercourse the penguin!

Well I object to all this sex on the telly. I mean, I keep falling off!

This is Uncle Ted back in front of the house, but you can see the side of the house...

And that's the Spanish Inquisition hiding behind the coal shed...

Oh! I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition...

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Our chief weapon is surprise - surprise and fear, fear and surprise.

Our two weapons are fear and surprise - and ruthless efficiency.

Our three weapons are fear and surprise, and ruthless efficiency - and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.

Our four - no - amongst our weapons - amongst our weaponry - are such elements as fear, surprise...

I didn't really call you "Eddie baby" - did I, sweetie?
