Every single time I see a cardinal on my lanai, I am seized by the impulse to say, "Cardinal Fang!" "and Cardinal Richilieu" if there are 2. I often give in to that impulse and blurt it out for my own amusement. And then I giggle. (This is not my photo, it's from the Internet.) #montypython

Our chief weapon is fear!
Fear and surprise!
... Amongst our weaponry are fear, surprise, and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope!
@voltronic and nice red uniforms.

Right? Some of that has become part of our family repertoire. Last year I found an oversized chair (with hassock - showing my age here) on freecycle. When I set it up in my small sitting area, my grandkids were quick to come down to check it out. It's a '60s version so it's over stuffed and oversized. And I said to them they should take a seat in the comfy chair. Right on cue, DD shrieked, NOT THE COMFY CHAIR!“

We also frequently say, NObody expects the Spanish Inquisition!" in response to, "I didn't expect that"

I remember the first time I saw this bit and got to the part about the rack and the comfy chair O just about lost it.
