Anyone ever pit Bambi?...

For five bonus points, and the lead…

Who’s been tampering with my question cards?

It says “Michael” here, actually.

Never trust a hippie.

OK, that’s IT! Y’all are speaking Furbish. I haven’t a clue as to what is going on in this thread. Revtim may have shed some light on the subject. QUOTE]

They are quoting lines…well, posting the entire script…from the incredibly awesome British 80s show The Young Ones, starring Rik Mayell among others and written by Rik and Blackadder’s Ben Elton among others. In this episode our scruffy heroes go on a college bowl type show (my guess is that it was a parody of a college bowl type show on in Britain) to defend their school, Scumbag College, against a quartet of posher students. All I remember of this episode is that the competition included Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, and Emma Thompson.

Oh yeah, and wasn’t the name of Rik Mayell’s character spelled Prick–you know, with a silent P?

Starring Griff Rhys Jones as Bambi (a parody of UK University Challenge host Bamber Gascoigne). It’s probably my favourite episode of The Young Ones, even though it doesn’t have ‘Madness’ in it (instead it’s Motorhead). But it does have a great scene where they are about to go to the Laundromat, and rush so fast down the stairs, the actors have all swapped characters amongst themselves!

It’s my favorite too, especially because of that swapping characters bit. Friggin’ hilarious.

Hey, anyone think nisobar is ever going to clarify wtf he was talking about?

Okay, okay - it wasn’t one of my better threads - so sue me…

I ended up mildly pitting closeted-gays-who-expose/villify-gays in another thread with a total of - count 'em - four (4) responses.

the analogy here is that bambi was innocent and was victimized by forces outside her control. Likewise, it could be argued that closeted-gays-… have been victimized by homophobia in society and so are not entirely responsible for their mental dysfunction. Ergo, pitting closeted-gays is sort of like pitting Bambi.

I mean, that should be crystal clear. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS!? :mad:

:smiley:

Too easy. That chick who did the themesong for that Second Cityish sitcom based on that LucasArts game.

(I snuck in a Sex Pistols reference in addition to the required Young Ones line, too.)

Now I’m just trying to figure out what the hell closeted gays have to do with cultish entertainers from commonwealth countries. Try to stay on topic, niso.

Why are we Pitting Ms. Bambennic?

RUN, BAMBI! RUN!


“QUICKLY! Boil some water and tear up a petticoat!”
“Is someone having a baby?”
I grew up in Milwaukee and remember that. She was hot at the time!

Back to OP. If only his (yes Bambi was male) mom was pro-choice, we could focus on Snow-White!

Duh. :rolleyes:
“Too easy”---- and wrong!!!

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

I fart in the direction of yoor aunties, you silly Mudd-person!
Now—guess again. :smiley:

BTW—duffer is on target, & seems to like either golf, or Homer Simpson’s favorite beer.

German-Scots-Irish. Love both equally! :smiley:

You mean you’re referring to the docudrama itself and not the obscure reference to the docudrama? (I refuse to believe she meant the Disney thing.)

Where’s the fun in that?

Fuck. Bambi.

Is that true? Bambi, did you do a Disney Nasty?

I like pie and beer.

Are you suggesting Bambi was a doe trapped in a buck’s body?

I was afraid for a minute. I only have ~200 posts over the last 3 years – what the hell could I have said? Then I saw it wasn’t about me, so never mind.
