> "Bad Zeus.I bleive it was "Bad Zut!" I always thought this was so hilarious, because Zut (with the little hat thing over the U) is like "darn" or "drat" in French, and will get you about as much respect among French speakers as saying "Ai, caramba!" in Tijuana or "Golly-gee willikers" in South Boston with all earnestness.
Sir Robin's minstrels were absolutely classic. "He's not afraid to have...his nostrils raped," etc., is just, well, too perfect for words.
(Requisite disclaimer: I don't normally find the idea of rape funny...the key here is irony. Thanks to all for understanding.)
