At the end, the guy said the couple said matress 'twice'. Since he does overestimate everything my 10 times, shouldn't he have told them that the couple said it 20 times?

For a Monty Python clip, that wasn't that great.

Second, it was a joke, douche.

For one thing, this skit compared to say a real classic like the Pet Shop, Spanish Inquisition, or even the one I think was called Nudge isn't that funny. This clip isn't really a classic compared to some of the other real classics.

And no shit that joke wasn't that funny, I was just pointing something out. I really enjoy the Flying Circus, when the jokes aren't completely forced and set.

So what your saying is you only find the skits that other people call classics funny? Meaning that your only trying to follow the crowd.

I never once said it was a CLASSIC you twat, I was just saying it's one of my favorite skits. Also, in my opinion there isn't really a Monty Python skit that can't be called a classic. Every skit has hidden jokes and things that you notice after watching it several times.

To say that every Python skit is great is far featched. Also, I never claimed this was a classic, I simply said that this skit was not that good compared to the real greats of Python.

Either way, the word classic can be placed on any great skit, as the show is almost 5 decades old and a figure in the history of television. Any great skit is classic, and this skit wasn't all that great. Sure, it was okay, but it wasn't that great.

Sure, its your favourite, I don't dispute that. My claim is that it isn't all the great, it isn't one of the many 'classics'.

Reading comprehendsion, try to establish that.

And my claim was just to enjoy it.

Reading comprehension, try to correctly spell that.
