Our brains hurts our brains.

I came across this in my surfings this morning. Here is the blurb that accompanies a video of celeb favorite Python moments:
Monty Python was first aired on British television screens on October 5 1969. Famous for the ministry of silly walks and the dead parrot sketch, the legacy of the series lives on.
The BBC spoke to Ricky Gervais, Justin Lee Collins, Jeremy Clarkson and Stephen Merchant to find out their favourite Monty Python moments.

Love these guys, always will. Life of Bryan is their best work in my opinion. I’m sure their harsh treatment of religion will bring out the Freeper thumpers for sure though.
But if we took out the bones, it wouldn’t be “crunchy” then, would it?”
- Crunchy Frog (and other confectionaries)
The Spanish Inquisition and Argument.
“All right... all right... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order... what have the Romans done for us?”

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There’s nothing Nietzsche couldn’t teach ya’
‘Bout the raising of the wrist.
SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY PISSED...
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away;
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: “I drink, therefore I am”
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he’s pissed!
And there is the Gameshow shetch where the entire program is taken up by explaining the rules...
Summarize Proust!!
“Life of Bryan is their best work in my opinion.”
Blasphemous, but funny. Blessed are the cheesemakers.
I can’t pick between Life of Brian or The Grail as their best work. I love them both.
There is another thread of this just down a bit but who cares: The fish Slapping Dance was one of the best sketches ever.
The warped, comedic minds who thought these things up were absolutely great!
Oops! Well, I was at the BBC, you were at AFP. Oh well. I did a search under Monty Python and didn’t see anything. Bugger all, as they say.
Jailer: Crucifixion?
Prisoner 2: Er, no, freedom actually.
Jailer: What?
Prisoner 2: Yeah, they said I hadn’t done anything and I could go and live on an island somewhere.
Jailer: Oh I say, that’s very nice. Well, off you go then.
Prisoner 2: No, I’m just pulling your leg, it’s crucifixion really.
Jailer: [laughing] Oh yes, very good. Well...
Prisoner 2: Yes I know, out of the door, one cross each, line on the left.
“Wenn ist das Nunstuck git und Slotermayer? Ja! Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!
THERE’S NO MESSIAH HERE! He’s not the Messiah; he’s a very naughty boy.
When the movie first came out I nearly got kicked out of the theater for laughing to loudly when Brian jumped out of the window and landed in the space ship.
