Well, we're about to witness All-in Wrestling, brought to you tonight, ladies and gentlemen, by the makers of Scum, the world's first combined hair oil, foot ointment, and salad dressing; and by the makers of Titan, the novelty nuclear missile. You never know when it'll go off.

Michelangelo: Good evening, Your Holiness. The Pope: Evening, Michelangelo. I want to talk to you about this painting of yours, The Last Supper. I'm not happy about it. Michelangelo: Oh, dear. It took me hours. The Pope: Not happy at all. Michelangelo: Is it the jello you don't like? The Pope: No. Michelangelo: It does add a bit of colour, doesn't it. Oh, I know, you don't like the kangaroo. The Pope: What kangaroo? Michelangelo: No problem, I'll paint him out. The Pope: I never saw a kangaroo. Michelangelo: Uh, he's right at the back. No sweat, I'll make him into a disciple. All right? The Pope: That's the problem. Michelangelo: What is? The Pope: The disciples. Michelangelo: Are they too Jewish? I made Judas the most Jewish. The Pope: No, it's just that there are 28 of them.

Yorkshireman 1: Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad would kill us, and dance about on our graves. Yorkshireman 2: But you try and tell the young people today that... and they won't believe ya'.

[the Philosophers' Drinking Song] First Bruce: Immanuel Kant was a real pissant who was very rarely stable / Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could think you under the table / David Hume could outconsume Schopenhauer and Hegel / And Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as schlossed as Schlegel / There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raisin' of the wrist / Socrates himself was permanently pissed / And John Stuart Mill, of his own free will, on a half a pint of shandy was particularly ill / Plato, they say, could stick it away - half a pint of whiskey, every day / Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle / Hobbes was fond of his dram / And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am!" / Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed... / a lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed.
