Ever saw the first MP movie, "Monthy Python and the Holy Grail"?
Possibly the funniest movie of all time. It's achieved somewhat of
a cult status amongst college students; when I was attending
college, I knew some people who had memorized the entire script,
word for word, from that
movie.
One of my favourite pieces of dialogue from that movie:
A Reading from the Book
of Armaments, Chapter 4, Verses 16 to 20:
Then did he raise on high the
Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, saying, "Bless this, O Lord, that
with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."
And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the lambs and toads
and tree-sloths and fruit-bats and orangutans and breakfast cereals
... Now did the Lord say, "First thou pullest the Holy Pin. Then
thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the counting
and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not
count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou then
proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three,
being the number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the
Holy Hand Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty
in my sight, shall snuff it."
