[quote user="vsmith"][quote user="futuremodal"] <P>[quote user="Murphy Siding"]     Some threads just hit that point of absurdity, that they make <EM>Monty Python</EM> sketches seem cerebral in comparison.[;)][/quote]</P> <P>Actually, you'll find most British humor to be cerebral more so than US sit-coms.  The British will rather put forth an absurd visual premise (aka King Aurther and his patsy shuffling along while banging two coconuts together to emulate being horseback), then script it as if they really were on horseback.  Even more cerebral is the Blackadder series with Rowan Atkinson (of Mr. Bean fame), which employs very intellectual scripting for it's humor (aka Samuel Johnson extolling his new dictionary as containing every single word in the English language, only to be upstaged by Blackadder who converses with words and phrases <EM>not</EM> in Mr. Johnson's new dictionary!)</P> <P>SNL tries to pull off the same cerebralness, but of course fails miserably since it's writers are all a bunch of dope smoking New York liberals.  So probably you should have referenced SNL as being the comparitive to this pointless thread.</P> <DIV>[/quote]</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>FM we arent so different afterall....[:O]</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Big fan of Blackadder 2 series myself. I'm convinced the game of sharades played with Mad Prince Ludwig's spanish inquisition jailer is the funniest thing ever put to videotape,  althought the 3rd series gun duel with an insane Duke of Wellington (with cannons) rates pretty high too.[;)]</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>"...OH!  It's a scythe!"</P>
