    That is true. We like the Monty Pythons more than anyone else does, we adore them! But we would never diminish this feeling by laughing about their jokes. Instead we do argue for hours about the philosophical implications of a silly walk.

      Yeah, with a philosopher like Beckenbauer that’s exactly what I’d suspect.

      However the efficiency of the killing joke does make one wonder how the primordial laughter gets unlocked. Alas, we’ll never know.
