Your Majesty is Like a Dose of Clap
Passing references to Wilde and Shaw bring to mind what may be our favorite Python sketch ever, besides the usual suspects. We first heard this on the “Matching Tie & Handkerchief” album years before we saw it, and the album version is far superior — mainly because the room explodes with raucous laughter after each bon mot, and takes forever to subside. But this particular video version is not without its peculiar charms. Those responsible have been sacked.
Princess Margaret going to the john is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Remembered it for years. Grand to see it again.

And I mean that sincerely.
PS. noje’s comments are in Dip; the Montenegrin AbbA patois of Erg.
@mellbell: I was guessing Czech because of all the accessories to the letters. I love me a good miniscule or umlaut.
@Benedick: You have a pug in your lap?
