"and now for something completely different..."

There must be some Python fans out there!! 

 

I've been a fan since I was a teenager- yeah back when the wheel was still square...  Anyway, I'm hosting a contest based on the idiocy, subtlety (at times) and brilliance of thier special brand of humor.

 

Anything goes- from dead parrots ("No, he's just sleeping...") to crunchy frogs in chocolate samplers ("You don't de-bone them?"  "Well, then it wouldn't be crunchy, would it?") to inane arguments ("I came here for an argument!"  "No, you didn't...").  Just a few reminders for the folks who know the skits- really, take it anywhere!!  For the uninitiated, you can check the "The Philosopher's Song" at the bottom for a taste!

 

Just anything that comes to mind whether it's Python related or not- lookin' only for humor!

 

 

-100 words or so

-label as Adult, if applicable

-have fun!

 

âImmanuel Kant was a real piss-ant who was very rarely stable.

Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could think you under the table.

David Hume could out-consume Schopenhauer and Hegel

and Wittgenstien was a beery slime who was just as sloshed as Schlegel. 

There’s nothing Nietzsche couldn’t teach ya‘ bout the raising of the wrist…

Socrates himself was permanently pissed. 

John Stuart Mill of his own free will

on a half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.

Plato they say could stick it away

half a crate of whisky everyday

Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle

Wilkes was fond of his dram

and Rene Descartes was a drunken fart,

“I drink, therefore I am.” 

As Socrates himself is particularly missed…

a lovely little thinker but a bugger when he’s pissed.

  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 300, Bronze: 200, Honorable mention: 7 people
  • Final notes:
    ABSOLUTE RUBBISH!!! As a barrister, I intend to prosecute each of you to the fullest extent of the law. Protest if you like- you can put it in the hands of your attorney, but it'll never stand up in court (cross-dressing judges skit)!

    Super-colosally, mega-unbelievably, hyper-earth shakingly (somewhat) funny stuff!

    Thank you all- now remember the instructions at the boy's school (modified version): "It's really quite simple, when gym is finished you move your coat to the lower peg, take off your right shoe followed closely by the left, place them in the cubby at the top of your locker... "STOP THAT! It's extraordinarily silly. And you, we need you on stage for a skit- you're not even a proper woman... "DON'T you oppress me, mate!!!"

    Dedicated to the memory of Mr. Graham Chapman, may he rest in peace.
