Fresh fruit not good enough for you, eh? Well, I’ll tell you something, my lad. When you’re walking home tonight and some great homicidal maniac comes after you with a bunch of loganberries, don’t come crying to me!

Don’t be a pedantic dick.

[So, anyways, I watched _Monty Python: One Down, Five To Go_ on Netflix yesterday. It was the last stage show featuring the five surviving Pythons and Carol Cleland, and numerous guest cameos. After Eric Idle did a lovely job of singing _The Galaxy Song_, there appeared on the screen above physicist Brian Cox, standing in front of some buildings at Oxford, who proceeded to find nitpicky fault with the song. “The sun isn’t the source of all our power, there’s geothermal energy,… the world only would go around at 9 million miles an hour if the orbit was perfectly circular…, &c.” As he is talking a small figure is seen in the background coming forward at speed. As the form gets closer we see it is none other than Prof. Stephen Hawking, racing towards Cox in his motorized wheelchair. Hawking knocks Cox down, [audience goes wild] says the above line, and goes back the way he came, singing (!) _The Galaxy Song_. ]
