@dominicoreilly49476 жыл бұрын
That's a very interesting comment to which I'd reply that I agree that a state of perfection- as you term it- cannot exist in creative work because entertainment and comedy can't be measured in quantitative absolutes (this is as opposed to, say, a quiz where someone getting 10/10 would constitute a perfect score). I'd also say that words and the definitions of words mould themselves to different contexts and situations. As comedy is subjective, the word 'perfect' in this context is generally understood to reflect that fact- and saying 'one of the most perfect' is an acceptable alternative to 'one of the best imaginable'. In other words, since literal 'perfection' cannot exist in a creative work, if the word is used, its meaning is understood as the subjective equivalent of a 10/10, and it is churlish to claim that a statement whose meaning is universally understood is 'stupid'. And... wow, you must be even more of a hit at parties than me...

Every time some old coot at your table would sound off about how hard it was when he was a kid, he would be cut short with the cry of "Luxury!" in a Yorkshire accent by someone at the table and everyone would fly into a part of this skit or variations on it. "Lived in shoe box in middle of road...walk 55 miles through snow to mill...work 96 hours at mill for less than nothing a lifetime...etc." Whoever wrote this skit did the world a great, great service!

This amazing cast has Python humour all over, really funny, fascinating facts, clever songs, Monty Python the next generation. You can check the sketches on KZbin.

Not sure if I like Graham Chapman saying “luxury“ or John Cleese saying “right.” Each of those single words delivers so much. I think I like this version of the skit more than the one I have seen hundreds of times from “live at the Hollywood bowl.“ It is brilliant.

I saw TBT recording ISIHAC in Huddersfield just 4 weeks before he died and only a week or so before the coronavirus 'lockdown'. He was on top form as ever, and there was covid-19 banter among the panel of course. At the end of the recording the producer joked that he hoped that at "more than half of you" (meaning the audience) would survive in order to hear the broadcast. There was much laughter at that gallows humour. What a sad twist of fate.

I grew in in Florida. We had to swim the alligator infested river 6 miles to school each day.upstreem both ways. It wasn't so bad except when the electric eels were schooling. Mostly we just cought a few rattlesnakes in the school outhouse and threw them to that gators to distract them. The real problem was the mosquitoes. My big brother was carried off by one of those. We only found his empty skin.
