Queen Dalek


German: You started it
Basil: No I didn't
German: Yes you did
Basil: No, you invaded Poland!


*boggle*

German: Will you stop talking about the war??

Basil: But you started it!

German: No, we didn't!

Basil: Yes, you did! You invaded Poland!

Courtney Cox-Zucker: NightGirl: What is it with Eric Idle? All the other Pythons moved on to other, successful careers. He tried one project - Rutland Weekend TV - and has been flogging the dead horse of the Pythons ever since.

(Pic of Wreck-Gar from Transformers Animated)

He shows up in unexpected places all the time.


FAIL.

Weird Al voiced Wreck-Gar here...not Idle. Idle only did the movie version in '86.

/Ger-ron-ron-ronimo!

Eric Idle voiced Wreck-Gar in The Transformers: The Movie.

The Wreck-Gar you have pictured is from the Transformers: Animated tv series, and was voiced by "Weird Al" Yankovic.

/Now you know!

Your jib. It's cut: like it.

And shows what I get for NOT reading all the way through before griping.

Sit on my face and tell me that you love me
I'll sit on your face and tell you I love you, too
I love to hear you oralize
When I'm between your thighs
You blow me away

Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you
I'll sit on your face and then I'll love you truly
Life can be fine if we both sixty-nine
If we sit on our faces in all sorts of places
And play, 'til we're blown away

I blame the economy.

Eric Idle will always be my favorite.

He's hosting the Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal. You can't blame a guy for having work and moving on from things he has already considered finished.

Next thing, everyone will biatch when Hugh Laurie passes on a Blackadder reunion.

Dogbeast: He has Steve Martin's Disease, a crippling condition that affects comedians in their prime.

Thank god it's not E. Henry Thripshaw's disease. It's dreadfully embarrassing to pudender out the wrong fusebox.

Another Government Employee: wjllope: Another Government Employee: He took the course on how not to be seen.

No, he didn't.

zarberg: Is it wrong of me to say I like him as a serious actor?

Yes, It is.

Continually gainsaying someone's remarks is not an argument...



Look, if he's going to argue with you, he's going to have to take up a contrary position.

Yes, but it's not just the automatic gainst saying of what the other person says!

THIS THIS THIS

How sweet to be an Idiot,
As harmless as a cloud,
Too small to hide the sun
Almost poking fun,
At the warm but insecure untidy crowd.
How sweet to be an idiot,
And dip my brain in joy,
Children laughing at my back,
With no fear of attack,
As much retaliation as a toy.

How sweet to be an idiot, how sweet.

I tiptoed down the street,
Smiled at everyone I meet,
But suddently a scream,
Smashes through my dream,
Fie fye foe fum,
I smell the blood of an asylum,
(Blood of an asylum,
But mother I play so beautifully,
listen. ha ha)
Fie fye foe fum,
I smell the blood of the asylum,
Hey you, you're such a pennant,
You got as much brain as a dead ant,
As much inagination as a carvan sign.

But I still love you, still love you,
Oooh how sweet to be an idiot,
How sweet. how sweet. How sweet.

Monty Python was such a funny dude. Him and Jethro Tull are my 2 favorite british guys.

Neither is as cool as Big Ben though.

Subby can suck a GIANT bag of spotted dick.

Cleese farking RULES you ignorant little wafer thin mint.

/No shiat. I'd smack you into next week with no warning for such blaspheming if you tried it within arms reach.

Dogbeast: WaltzingMathilda: cleese is unfunny? by that, do you mean the funniest of all of them?

am i missing a reference?

He has Steve Martin's Disease, a crippling condition that affects comedians in their prime. They become swollen and bloated with self-importance, crippling their ability to take criticism and robbing them of all their fun. Now John Cleese, and dozens of other formerly healthy, amusing people, may never be funny ever again.


TRANSLATION: "I'm a jerkwater ignorant crotch spawn who thinks Dane Cook farking rocks."fark you, you pedestrian little coont wallop. Don't make me hunt you down and gut you like an eel I don't want to eat but knife on principle, you vicious, ignorant little gut sucking pustule.

Pssst: He submitted it with this headline exactly for this reaction. Don't feed the headline. You make it work. So do I.

- Why did you come in here then?
- I wanted to complain.
- Oh no, that's next door. It's being-hit-on-the-head lessons in here.
- What a stupid concept!


/i've always thought that virtually every python was equal. each had their own strengths and whatnot. and when they all came together [in the same scene/sketch], or worked in teams [writing sketches] it was very very good.

//except for Terry Jones... i don't know why i slightly didn't like his characters and whatnot as much as the others... I think my favourites are/were: Palin, Idle, Chapman, and Cleese.

 
madgordy 2009-07-07 12:48:42 AM  
Grahm didn't say he wouldn't be at the reunion.

He didn't.

I bet no one asked him.

no one.

Pink Floyd is the best. My cousin met him once, says he's just a regular guy, really cool.

Two Dogs Farking: Yes it is.

Thanks for clearing that up, guys.


And another Farker outs himself as a non-fan for not getting the Monty Python reference.

I'm still waiting for an actual example of John Cleese & Steve Martin's douchebaggery.

 
ColTomParker 2009-07-07 01:45:28 PM  
I'd like to complain about all the sex on the telly. I mean, I keep falling off.

poot_rootbeer: FlashHarry: cleese is a colossal, epic dickhead.

He's spent the last forty years assailed by nerds trying to impress him by reciting "The Dead Parrot Sketch" in a terrible British accent.

It'd turn you into a sour asshole, too.


You do make an interesting point.

/Still likes young Cleese better than old Cleese
//ALL of the members have had their share of unfunny moments past and present.

Cleese is really turning into a miserable, curmudgeonly, old git.
