Monty Python - Fish License

[54AgeOfRogue54]

... and the fourth wall has bean broken ...

[MatSpengerOfficial]

I'm a pet halibut and I find this offensive.

[JWagsWasHere]

"So you want a license."

"Yes"

"For a Fish"

"Yes"

(pause)

"You are a looney."

[MikroStormer]

2:45 - EPIC<3

[alspageddi]

haha, another monty python proust reference

[markhiggins]

Didnt like all the others...they were too flat :D

[Lshannon90]

IIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

[withalittlehelpfrom3]

"Aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iii am not a loo-ney!"

[varunachar87]

Housinge?

[ChibiRyo32096]

My favorit singer is "Eric Fish" :D 

[jacobburns909]

3:00 IS AWESOME

[Cheabs123]

Eric is a half a bee though

[Spikeymikey1324]

He IS. AN. HALIBUT

[dondopa]

When an error occurs, the interpreter prints an error message and a stack trace. In interactive mode, it then returns to the primary prompt; when input came from a file, it exits with a nonzero exit status after printing the stack trace. nonzero exit; this applies to internal inconsistencies and some cases of running out of memory. All error messages are written to the standard error stream; normal output from executed commands is written to standard output.

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

@dondopa

Lies!

[dondopa]

@MomoTheBellyDancer prove it then momo-chan!

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

@dondopa

"prove it then momo-chan!"

嘘だ!

It's nothing but a smear-campaign of compilers against interpreters!

[dondopa]

@MomoTheBellyDancer are you a python programmer momo-chan?

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

@dondopa

"are you a python programmer momo-chan?"

I'm in therapy for that.

[dondopa]

@MomoTheBellyDancer are you serious? i find C and Java more incomprehensible than python.

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

@dondopa

"C and Java "

I'm on therapy for those too.

[dondopa]

@MomoTheBellyDancer so which programming language do you like the most then?

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

@dondopa

"which programming language do you like the most then?"

The one I don't have to program in.

Failing that, I'll go with Eiffel.

[dondopa]

@MomoTheBellyDancer i see. well it is was nice talking to you. i have to go now so cheerio! good day!

[rustybuckets07]

BURMA!!!

[MrSwordsman92]

1:52 i rescued an owl today and called him sir stefford because i remember hearing it here

[Mr3sheds]

@MrSwordsman92 The person he is referring to is Sir Stafford Cripps who was Chancellor of the Exchequer in the 1940s.

[HPgamingPERSON]

WHERE DA FISH!!

[mrtwister428]

Ahhhh, british comedy.

[v0idation]

He is an halibut.

[MagicAccent]

This is one of pythons most interesting characters. How many sketches is he in?

[rfitzhen100]

Monty Python was much funnier than Benny Hill

[Mr3sheds]

Although this sketch is 40 years old, the Cleese character typifies the ever-growing mass of barely educated, purposeless, unemployable individuals who have nothing to say but still feel a desperate need to justify their existence and always have to have the last word even if what they're saying is total bollocks. Laugh you may, but these people are slowly taking over the world.

[Lobsterboyman]

@Mr3sheds You mean religious people.

[Mr3sheds]

@Lobsterboyman That wasn't quite what I was getting at, but, as a confirmed atheist, I can't help thinking you've got a point!

[CrazyTrainisawesome]

@Lobsterboyman you sir, are an offensive cunt.

[russinhouse]

@Mr3sheds look here, eric; i think you weally, weally have 3 bleeding sheds.

[Applemask]

Easanalibut.

[Alizastack]

there's someone in the audience who's got a really irritating laugh

[Bestmanme08]

Google "Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python"!

[MusakMike]

Haha never noticed but the name signs read Mr. First and Mr. Last xD

[MsIluvAxel1]

My pet cat: Eric

My pet dog: Eric

My pet fruit-bat: Eric

My pet fish: Eric

[MusakMike]

I once went on a postal adventure.

[treemarble]

the rigamarole of bureaucracy, excellently done .

masters.

[AnachronisticGames]

At 2:52 you see a strange white stain for a sec on the left side.

[SLjimbolian]

62 people have never gotten their fish licenses.

[cxmafia]

@SLjimbolian 65 have been nicked without one by now

[Knochenschiff]

Actually Eric Fish is a german singer, frontman of the band Subway to Sally

[OffendersProductions]

I named all my pets Eric XD

[ShyNerdFighterGirl]

My fish's name is Erik!! He's a Beta though...

[GONEmypurpleflapjack]

@ShyNerdFighterGirl Did you license him?

--DFTBA

[howaboutschy]

@GONEmypurpleflapjack wooooo! nerdfighters who enjoy monty python for the win!

[sbu003]

[AboutHreinzi]

[ggorg2000]

[15h0tmy531f]

@stiggyjg 13th letter in row five. Where's my sandwich?

[MrBlah15000]

Do i need a fish license for my tiger shark?

[RusCan10]

At Sweet Knowle aquatics (UK(e) England Warwickshire) they have a massive adorable catfish named Eric who tries to nom your finger through the glass. He isn't for sale because he's like 2 or 3 foot long.

[CapitanoGUC]

0:10 ain´t that michael jackson ????? :-O

[DavyDeckwalker]

@CapitanoGUC IIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mateuszmattias]

"...and the late great Marcel Proust 'ad an 'addock!" Couldn't possibly think of any better way of underlining an undisputable fact and consequently ending a discussion.

[rabidrabbitshuggers]

Palin is so cute in this skit.

[GONEmypurpleflapjack]

@rabidrabbitshuggers He always is.

[IanCaufield]

I am not a looney! Why should I be attired with the epithet looney merely because I have a pet halibut? I've heard tell that Sir Gerald Nabardo has a pet prawn called Simon - you wouldn't call him a looney - furthermore, Dawn Pailthorpe, the lady show-jumper, had a clam, called Stafford, after the late Chancellor, Allan Bullock has two pikes, both called Chris, and Marcel Proust had an haddock! So, if you're calling the author of 'A la recherche du temps perdu' a looney, I shall ask you to go!

[pandabear15ful]

I AM NOT A LONNEY!

[Arrousaliscious]

@pandabear15ful Ok..... so if your not Lonney then what is yer name? lol

[TheKneepain]

@Pipzification LMFAO!!!!!

[Schone23666]

@Pipzification  Your dad's a loony.

=P

[mikkodude]

@Pipzification In the next photo you can see the whole world getting sucked into a black (the black hole being in the same spot as the black dot in the previous picture)

[Pipzification]

@mikkodude okay......?

[mikkodude]

@Pipzification Or am I wrong?

[Pipzification]

@mikkodude There defiantly wasn't a black hole in the next picture... but maybe there was and we are all living inside it :/ aaahhhhhhhhhhhh

[mikkodude]

@Pipzification Possible.

[Pipzification]

@mikkodude :D

[perseus365]

@Pipzification so your dad found...a dead...flying...talking...fish­...and named it eric?

[Pipzification]

@perseus365 yeah... makes me wonder what i'm gonna turn out like when i'm older. It really does.

[perseus365]

@Pipzification i bet you'll be a fisher. lol

[ozipk]

@Pipzification Huh?

[Pipzification]

My dad found a dead fish on holiday in Australia and named it eric. Then he propped it up in the sand and started having a 'intelligent' conversation with it. In the next photo you see him about to chuck it into the sea. The photo after that you can see a black dot in the sky

:D

[peteristehbest]

theres so such thing as a bloody fish license. yes there is. no there isnt. is. isnt. is.. isnt. *nods head* is issnt. is. isnt. *nods head and smiles* is.. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS isnt. whats that then?! "that is a dog license with the word dog crossed out and the word cat written in" genious.

[Jennello132]

yes eric. eric fish

[naerulinnupesa]

The man who works at the argument clinic just wants to buy a fish licence... he's arguing of his spare time!

[princeofdaftness]

My cat is called Erik thanks to this sketch, and so was a previous cat too

[ydyammo]

Hey.... Eric the half-a-bee is missing. :P

[cooldookie]

58 people are named eric

[blackbeasthamish]

@cooldookie I think they should all be forced to carry a licence, which states that they have no sense of humour, and be forced to produce it for inspection at a funny farm at least 3 times a week until they can prove they have been cured.

[laserindie]

Eric fish almost made me shit out my mouth lololololol

[AdinaMoto]

My family used to have a pet bird named ERIC!

[1967PONTIACGTO]

It's people like you wot causes unrest!

[Soilwar]

Did anyone here ever try this in real life? :D

[natwithstrings]

58 people couldn't get a fish license

[naerulinnupesa]

What R his exact words at 0:47 to 0:58? Sums up the time I wanted to buy some stamps for letters to be sent abroad. There was a nice selection behind the glass. I chose some and addressed the woman behind the counter.

"I would like these stamps, please."

"I'm not authorised to sell them."

"?!?!?!?!?!?" - My jaw nearly dropped.

"The woman who works behind that counter can sell them. It's her day off."

I was rather speechless. She put a bunch of stamps on my letters, most of them worth ca 2p.

[Olgalarge]

sope and water

[guitarisdeathofme]

so where do i go to get this fish licence?

[kssk79]

my next postal adventure XD

[MoreBritish58]

Consider Mr.Last, Trolled.



[ClockworkComputer]

Michael looks so beautiful every time there's a close-up of him. This is my favourite Python sketch ever. :)

On another note - @ReitersOfTheStorm - Isn't.

[SuperAl186]

why cut it out @ the end

[superkyeman]

@ReitersOfTheStorm LOL!

[YodaWill4]

@ReitersOfTheStorm Isn't

[KokaKolaKlan]

Their is-isn't fight is the best part of this video. You can't not-laugh when witnessing John's faces there <3

[mhcsolja1]

He`s no James bond.

[shannongraphics]

classic... Classic... CLASSIC Cleese! He truly IS a god. And Palin, just as brilliant in his own right, is often more effective as the 2nd banana, as evidenced in this classic example of timing and understatement. This, and the Argument sketch should be in text books. BRILLIANT! I can and have watched these sketches over and over and over... and they NEVER get old. I'm always finding little bits and details that I didn't see initially. The gift that keeps on giving. Go Python! Go Go! Rah Rah!

[mrcheeley]

@GuitaRDudE6722 That's "Spoken like a gent"

[erator2]

if you're calling the author of 'a la recerche du temps perdu' a loonie i shall have to ask you to step outside!

[GuitaRDudE6722]

wow i actually liked Cleese's response of "Spare the nitrogen" to "I owe you an apology sir!"...i should use that whenever someone wants to say something that i dont necessarily need to hear...

[misterbizzones]

@GuitaRDudE6722 headdesk.

[tvc18]

@GuitaRDudE6722 He says 'spoken like a gentleman'

[xMsAleshax]

The first time I saw this I laughed 'til my ribs hurt!

[benchoko2]

[PurpleFringe]

All my computers are called Eric.

[emmanuelarcuri]

2:45

[ixat00]

[The8347135]

I AM NOT A LOONEY

[NRT53]

My Name is Eric

[fairhillnorrie]

[SangaxOfxThexThunder]

@fairhillnorrie You don't need a license for a tree

[fairhillnorrie]

@SangaxOfxThexThunder you have just offended my tree... thank you SO much!!! you bas*ard.... Ni, ni...

[SangaxOfxThexThunder]

@fairhillnorrie Dude, it was a joke, I was using what they said in the video in different context, it's a really common joke

[fairhillnorrie]

@SangaxOfxThexThunder ha, and my comment was also a joke..... have we lost the plot?

[Dwojy18]

John Cleese is great.

Long live John Cleese!

[TheUnknownD]

57 people didnt got a fish License

[ferretboy1187]

He is an Halibut

[oldsoulyoungbody]

Did he walk into the argument clinic by mistake?

[izzybeth]

"the ministry of housinj" is where i lost it.

[Marinbot]

Did anyone else hear the wheezing person in the background? 3:10

[MrMontyBurnsDog]

@Marinbot I did.Its sounds like someone on the verge of an asthma attack from laughing so much ^.^

[Mazapagon]

"It's people like you what causes unrest." LOL

[SpiderXxPirate]

DIDheDIDheDIDindeed!

[atgblue1]

nuts. . .what happened at the end? signed by who?

[martinbizarro]

@atgblue1 - the lord mayor. The sketch continues with a nine-foot-high lord mayor of Derby who signes the non-license-needing devlaration, complete with reverent BBC-style commentary. Then Derby city council play rugby against the all blacks. After that it's Bournemouth Gynaecologists vs Watford Long John Silver impersonators, which is probably on youtube somewhere.

[patriotgirl65]

IIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[patriotgirl65]

There is something seriously wrong with 54 people who viewed this!!!

[mateuszmattias]

@patriotgirl65, well for a start, 57 people who watched this obviously aren't called Eric.

[03ngower]

They really like their Proust, don't they?

[martinbizarro]

@03ngower - yes, pity they could never summarise him in thirty seconds though.

[portIsobel]

54 people haven't got a cat license

[joshaf26]

"I am not a looney!" is my favorite phrase of all time.

[Srd1126]

The "cat-detector van" is a spoof of the "TV detector vans" they have in Britian, a reference lost on us yanks.

[boiledrootbeer]

Why does it cut out before the punch line?

[kumagamesclan]

54 people are looneys for buying a pet halibut.

[SkaarjSlayer]

"Is...... IISSSSSSSSS"

LOL

[TheJim9191]

@SkaarjSlayer  I pissed myself laughing at that

[lolokoperro]

hallirious

[bloodhammer27]

Now I have the urge to name all my future kids and pet Eric!

[modtbod]

EEEII AHM NOT EH LOONEH!

[gravygwundud]

I've got a Degu licence for my pet Degu Cyril and a Hamster licence for my pet hamster Cedric.

[Tokugawa2005]

Cleese and Palin together have the best reactions to each other their skits are the funniest of all the Python sketches

[drwhatson]

"...an' the late, great Marcel Proust 'ad an 'addock!"

Where did he get that mac? - I want one!

[peterd127]

IS!!!!XD

[redneckfordman94]

52 people tried and failed to get a fish license from Mr. Last

[BucketTribute]
