“Some people think I got the power 'cause I got the monkeys. Uh-uh. I got the power 'cause I’ll let the monkeys loose.” “Sausages!” “What do you go home to?” "My wife. My daughter. My rooster. " “I’m sorry I caused all that cancer.” “No, no. Let that one go, Francois. He has spirit.” “…but, brown stuff, Dan!” “This one time, I spilled some Husk Musk on my science project, and I got an A.” “You were the sole furvivor of a 15 minute delay!” “I sell shoes! Thank you, Satan!!!” “I’m sure our great leader has a plan.” “I’m sure our great leader is some kind of twisted ass freak.” “No! The beard stays, you go!” These are just a few that come to mind when Flup and I get into our KitH appreciation phase, which is almost as often as we share random Star Wars trivia. So please, share with the rest of the TM your favorite Kids in the Hall memories Bye the way, God is dead, and he was very small. ---

“Daddy drank.” Almost any Gavin quote, but especially “So I suppose you want me to paint your chair.” “Remember people, do not fear the evil that surrounds you. Do not avoid the hounds of hell. Do not avoid the beasts of brimstone. Do not avoid the puppies of purgatory. You must always embrace the hellfire, hellfire, hellfire. Thank you! Goodnight! If you haven’t already, please call you mom.” “Temp.” “Slut.” “Temp-Slut.” “Big Bats!” ---

“We’re _idea_ men. We profit from the _idea_ that we own the deed to your underwear.” “It’s a SWASTIKA!” “Well, now that you mention it, it does look a bit like a swastika…” “It looks EXACTLY like a swastika!” “Um, will this be a _problem_…?” “Of course it’s a problem! I have a symbol of hate on my stomach!” [This.](http://www.kithfan.org/work/transcripts/three/showbiz.html) ---

An open letter to the man who tole Bruce’s bike wheel… Lesbians are so great. They get so much done in a day. We work in silence! We shovel fuel! I don’t want it now, I want it fifteen minutes ago. (And I never got my water.) I’m Nutty Bunny Number One, I like to play and have fun. Good eeevening, and welcome to the Pit of Penultimate Darkness…aparrently someone’s just opened a pit that’s slightly darker than this one. But first – the whores! ---

Despite being a straight American male who despises Martinis, I’ve always been a big fan of Buddy Cole. “On my resume, my agent replaced the word gay with blond, and Canadian with outdoorsy. So I replaced outdoorsy with blousy. Which makes me a blousy blond.” “She hates when I write in french. I usually correspond in fag, but it’s incredible how often they’re the same thing, n’est-ce pas?” “I figured since he was from such a strict Muslim family, he was forced to stay in the closet. Luckily they liked me; his father thought I was a woman.” “Two down…bottom of the ninth…bases are loaded…God, I love cliches. Hang on, Sylvia! Give me that stick!” (To Oscar Wilde) "And while you’re at it do something about your hair it’s threatening to become more interesting than you. " “I, however spoke French with a refined, Parisian accent which made people think I was a snob. Luckily I was; so I didn’t mind.” and finally, “I was lounging about the pool at the Danish consulate wearing next to nothing. Ooo. In fact at one point, all I was wearing was a diplomat’s hand.” [This site](http://www.kithfan.org/work/transcripts/index.html#search) is fantastic for waxing nostalgic. 🙂 Happy [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-kids-in-the-hall-nostalgia-thread/121670.md?page=2)
