TIL “The Front Fell Off” is from Australian comedy news duo Clarke and Dawe
And, they have years of other comedy news skits, including Defence where they discuss aircraftless aircraft carriers. Hoo-rah.

How the hell can you know the phrase without having seen the clip???
Memetic osmosis.
Lots of people know 42 is the answer of everything, but don't know it comes from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
What do you get when you multiply six by nine?
How many roads must a man walk down?
Possibly the mice could tell you.
If you know the answer, do you know the question?
Rigorous meme engineering standards.
People in comments section will take any opportunity to repeat lines or make references.
Though at least they don't do this bit as much as the sand quote.
The star wars one or is there another?
The meme fell off
TIL it was from Clark and Dawe, and that they had many more skits. However, TIDNL about the meme that has been a round for years.
plan 9, lol
I always thought Too Many Cooks was just the simple phrase. Not the whole masterpiece of a video.
It is possible to hear part of the joke, without knowing the whole joke.
and I'd just like to say that Clarke is a New Zealander that had to move across the ditch because NZ is just too small to contain such talent
Look up Fred Dagg:

Forgot to strip out the arguments at the end of the URL, should work now. Thanks!
TIL I learned about The Front Fell Off. Holy shit that was hilarious!
I sometimes wonder if they have any thoughts regarding the internet notoriety of that one particular skit out of so many.
