I woke up from a dream about Monty Python this morning, specifically of the Black Knight in the Holy Grail, when he had his arms cut off and he was still taunting King Arthur, saying that it's only a flesh wound, and calling him a pansy. King Arthur would say, "You haven't got any arms", and the knight would say "Yes I have." I wonder what a dream interpretter would think of that.
I think about Monty Python often actually, and even though I haven't seen any of the movies in a few years lines from them float around in my head constantly especially when I'm driving, mostly becasue nobody could throw out a better insult than the French guy in the castle.
Someone cuts me off or isn't driving fast enough and I think, "You empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries." or "Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person."
When there is something I am afraid to do, I think of the song:
he bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about,
and valiantly, he chickened out.
Bravely taking to his feet,
he beat a very brave retreat.
All this stuck in my head from just one movie, imagine what would happen if I actually tried to fill it with any useful information. I probably have within me the answers to all of lifes biggest questions, they just can't escape the wall of Mel Brooks and Monty Python movie lines.
Oh well, I guess someone else will have to save the world.
*Side Note*
Iron Man was fantastic, can't wait for the new Indiana Jones.
