This remains one of their skits that has stuck in my head for decades. Enjoy.
I'm impressed Finn, a man who humbly gives credit to those who deserve it.

Stay out of politics, they'll eat you alive!!!

Man, I miss Monty Python. Growing up with Monty Python's Flying Circus probably had much to do with my warped mind.

I popped out of the hatch a half a bubble off. Life's experiences have simply made me worse.

One thing about Stanley levels, you're always a half a bubble off, depending on how you turn them.

I like their squares, at least the expensive ones. And you can't go wrong with an M77 Skilsaw, especially the new magnesium models.

You can bust one if you're a klutz, but you can't wear one out.

Your command of the King's English far exceeds mine. But I'm from Bugtussell, we hold ourselves to lower standards that the civilized world.

BTW, did I tell ya 'bout the time I knocked a squirrel outta a tree with a walnut, then chased it down and squooze it to death?
