Poll question: Favorite Monty Python line/part of a skit or movie.
Edited on Mon Sep-26-05 10:15 PM by nytemare
Ok, there are many to many to mention, so, I will do 10, and include an "other" category for you chaps and lasses who don't decide on the ones I put.

2. Two from the same skit...
"There's a man at the door with a moustache."
"No thanks, tell him I've already got one."

and

"Oh, mollusks. I thought you said BACON."

15. The randiest of the gastropods is the limpet.
This hotblooded little beast with its tent-like shell is always on the job. Its extramarital activities are something startling. Frankly I don't know how the female limpet finds the time to adhere to the rock face.

(boooooooom)

"How'd he know that?"

"It was an inspired guess. Next, the death of Mary, Queen of Scots".

A friend and I used to say these lines to each other during exam week in seminary. Keep in mind that the taunting was accompanied with the hand-waving and "pbbbbtt".

13. I fart ...

Because, when this line came across during Spamalot, the actor who delivered it let loose with this thundering fart noise while trailing his nose along a castle set-piece and almost literally made me pee my pants.

So funny, it was painful.

21. Angus Podgorney, Kiltmaker to the alien blacmonges.
"Angus...'ow ya gonna get 2 million kilts all the way to the planet Andromeda in our van?
"Oh...I'll 'ave to make two goes.
THINK OF IT, LOVE! We could get.....:::thinks hard and looks into space::: Writing paper 'w our names on it..
(Angus goes on to win Wimbledon)

"Take down your panties Sir William, I can not wait till lunchtime"
(English phrasebook sketch)


And one of the best, "RAF Banter"

CAPTION: 'SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND, 1944'

The squadron leader enters an RAF officers' mess and takes off his helmet.
Bovril Morning, Squadron Leader.
Squadron Leader What-ho, Squiffy.
Bovril How was it?
Squadron Leader Top-hole. Bally Jerry, pranged his kite right in the how's your father. Hairy blighter, dicky-birdied, feathered back on his Sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harper's and caught his can in the Bertie.
Bovril Er, I'm afraid I don't quite follow you, Squadron Leader.
Squadron Leader It's perfectly ordinary banter, Squiffy. Bally Jerry...pranged his kite right in the how's yer father...hairy blighter, dicky-birdied, feathered back on his Sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harper's and caught his can in the Bertie.
Bovril No, I'm just not understanding banter at all well today. Give us it slower.
Squadron Leader Banter's not the same if you say it slower, Squiffy.
Bovril Hold on then. (shouts) Wingco!
Wingco Yes!
Bovril Bend an ear to the Squadron Leader's banter for a sec, would you?
Wingco Can do.
Bovril Jolly good.
Wingco Fire away.
Squadron Leader (draws a deep breath and looks slightly uncertain, then starts even more deliberately than before) Bally Jerry...pranged his kite...right in how's yer father...hairy blighter...dicky-birdied...feathered back on his Sammy...took a waspy...flipped over on his Betty Harper's and caught his can in the Bertie...
Wingco ...No, don't understand that banter at all.
Squadron Leader Something up with my banter, chaps?
A siren goes. The door bursts open and an out-of-breath young pilot rushes in in his flying gear.
Pilot Bunch of monkeys on the ceiling, sir! Grab your egg and fours and let's get the bacon delivered!
General incomprehension. They look at each other.
Wingco Do you understand that?
Squadron Leader No, didn't get a word of it.
Wingco Sorry old man, we don't understand your banter.
Pilot You know...bally ten-penny ones dropping in the custard...(searching for words) un...Charlie Choppers chucking a handful...
Wingco No, no...sorry.
Bovril Say it a bit slower, old chap.
Pilot Slower banter, sir?
Wingco Ra-ther!
Pilot Um...sausage squad up the blue end?
Squadron Leader No, still don't get it.
Pilot Um...cabbage crates coming over the briny?
Squadron Leader No.
Others No, no....

"I'm not dead yet! I feel happy! I feel happy!"

"Requiem is dominea. Dominae is requiem." (thwak)

"My. Brain. Hurts."

"Are you trying to tell me that coconuts migrate?"

"How are you today, sir." "Better" "Better, sir?" "Better get a bucket."

"Look at those Catholics. Every time they have sex they've got to have a child." "It's the same with us, John. We DO have two children."

"She's turned me into a newt" "You're not a newt." "Well... I got better."

I'm sure I'll think of others.

but this made me laugh so hard when I first saw it that I thought I'd have an accident

Centurion: What is this then? Romanes eunt domus, "People called Romanes they go the house"?
Brian It-it says, "Romans, go home"!
Centurion: No, it doesn't! What's Latin for "Roman"? Come on, come on!
Brian: Romanus!
Centurion: Goes like?
Brian: Annus!
Centurion: Vocative plural of annus is...?
Brian: Anni?
Centurion: Romani. And eunt? What is eunt?
Brian: "Go"! Let-
Centurion: Conjugate the verb "to go".
Brian: Ire; eo, is, it, imus, itis, eunt!
Centurion: So eunt is...?
Brian: Third person plural, present indicative. "They go!"
Centurion: But "Romans, go home" is an order, so you must use the...?
Brian: The... imperative!
Centurion: Which is...?
Brian: I!
Centurion: How many Romans?
Brian: I.. Plural, plural! Ite, ite!
Centurion: Ite. Domus? Nominative? But "go home", it is motion towards, isn't it, boy?
Brian: Dative, sir!

No, not dative! Not the dative, sir! No! The... accusative, accusative! Domum, sir, ad domum!
Centurion: Except that domus takes the...?
Brian: The locative, sir!
Centurion: Which is?
Brian: Domum!
Centurion: Domum... -um Understand?

Now, write it out a hundred times!
Brian: Yes, sir, thank you, sir! Hail Caesar!
Centurion: Hail Caesar. If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off!
Brian: Oh, thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar and everything, sir!

Now that's one soccer match I could have watched for hours! It was billed as a semi-final. For decades I've wondered if/how the Long John Silver Impersonators actually beat someone, to advance to a semi-final.

51. I like "The Yorkshiremen" from Live at the Hollywood Bowl

Yorkshireman 1: Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad would kill us, and dance about on our graves.

Yorkshireman 2: But you try and tell the young people today that... and they won't believe ya'.
