Not fair! Last time I exhibited the bleached bones of my slain enemies in my lair, I got arrested.

Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say Ni at will to old ladies.

If you take the German title "Ritter der Kokosnuss" and translate it back to english it is Knights of the the coconut.

Well because they use coconuts instead of horses....

You haven’t seen Montey Python and the Holy Grail?

Relax. We’ve only ever seen it in clips. Though it is obligatory to insult you in a terrible accent: You’re mother was a Hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!

(Seriously though, it was one of those movies that almost no one has watched, but has seen most of anyway.)

How almost no one has watched it? In my bubble, almost everyone has seen it multiple times, often in cinema during rereleases - it's a cult classic!

You know what makes a cult classic a cult classic, right? Very passionate but also niche fan bases.

It’s a great and iconic film, but most people have never actually seen it end to end.

There's a fair bit of humor you miss out on if you've only seen clips and memes. Most of my irl friends have seen it and blazing saddles, though that could be my fault...

Everyone I have met who was worth talking to has seen and loved this movie. Am I old?

it was a rite of passage when your parents finally thought you were old enough to watch Holy Grail

Girls only care about one thing and that's pointless demonstration of power in pictures.

The Bowerbird’s Bower is not a nest or a home, think more like a box from which a potential mate will watch him do a little one man show. It’s a temporary display.

You probably already know this but for the others, different species of Bowerbirds have different color preferences! There is some speculation these preferences might relate to their own coloring. Also some speculation this might be due to regional traditions.

The Satin Bowerbird prefers blue, both the male and female have blue eyes and the male has that metallic black (almost blue-looking) feathering that some ravens have.

My "Hi!" comes after the planning phase, but I've been accused of not being spontaneous.

Yeah, let’s keep that red pill shit the fuck off this instance, my bro, what the fuck my guy why even say that?

Totally off base for the meme anyway since the Bowerbird’s Bower is not the equivalent of a house/nest and is much more akin to a little opera box from which the potential mate will watch him perform a little dance.

I honestly suspect some astroturfing Russian bullshit, but I call it out whenever I see it
