I figure it's time for us to have a laugh :)
Favourite Stand-Up Comedians Meme
1. Post ten seven of your favourite quotes from stand-up comedy routines.
2. Leave off the name of the comedian.
3. Get your flist to guess who authored the quotes.
And a good time is had by all :)
1.We stole countries with the cunning use of flags. Just sail around the world and stick a flag in. "I claim India for Britain!" And they're going, "You can't claim us, we live here! Five hundred million of us!" "Do you have a flag? ... No flag, no country! Those are the rules, that...I just made up." Eddie Izzard - akarui_sekai (special mention to mrs_knightley )
2.Ten years after the Chernobyl accident, and am I the only one that's disappointed? Still no superheros.
3.[on pre-EU British passports] You used them to shove aside officials. "Out of my way, Johnny-foreigner! Reason for visit? Imperialism!"
4.Oooh and the HobNobs... "They're like SAS biscuits... Dunk me!! AGAIN!! AGAIN!!! AGAIN!!!" The Almighty Peter Kay - mrs_knightley
5. Never forget it as the British army's plan to collapse back to Dunkirk and fuck off home pronto. If you're not there the Germans cant beat ya.
6."People are starving all over the world, what do you mean "red meat'll kill you?" Don't eat no red meat? No, don't eat no GREEN meat... if you're one of the chosen few people in the world lucky enough to get your hands on a steak, bite the shit out of it!"
7.Life's not fair, is it? Some of us drink champagne in the fast lane, and some of us eat our sandwiches by the loose chippings on the A597.
...I'm not sure this is going to work. It requires you all to have a similarly random sense of humour. But hey, at least you might get a grin or two out of it :)
