So, Monty Python

[Sir_Catherine]

Most of my friends get rather shocked when they find out I can't stand Monty Python. Whether they are my anime friends, literary friends, role playing friends, scadian friends or all of the above friends they can't believe I like the above but don't like Monty Python. As if Python and the SCA are joined at the hip. WTF? I want to know if I'm the only one out here in the SCA who doesn't like Monty Python.

Python takes a certain sense of humor, but it's a hard thing to say really... as the jokes were written by a number of different people with different comedic tastes (I could get into python history here, but since you're not a fan, I won't bother.)

It's just the personality type that is drawn to the society, methinks. Not to say that it's the set type, but most of the scaers I've known seem to have a similar group of interests (Roleplaying, History, British Humor, Cult-media (Anime, Cultfilms, comics, etc.))

Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say 'ni' at will to old ladies people who don't like python. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress at this period in history.

I swear I don't like Monty Python *is curently wearing a Monty Python T-shirt*

Monty Python? What silliness. I'll have none of it.

Now if you'll excuse me,

I must see a man about self-defense against bananas.

"Fresh fruit not good enough for you eh? Well I'll tell you something my lad. When you're walking home tonight and some great homicidal maniac comes after you with a bunch of loganberries, don't come crying to me!"

I recognize every quote posted despite not liking the show/movie. I was made to watch a good while back.

Yeah, you're right bout the similar group of interests. Add D&D role playing to the list though. Literaly every person in my shire but one has or does D&D and right now I'm game mastering for our Seneshal. What fun-a 50+ year old librarian and a bunch of college age kids laughing so hard the cat looks at us funny!

I put D&D at the top of the list under 'roleplaying'. Mostly because me and a couple other sca friends of mine dabble in different d20 systems from time to time.

Yeah, I've noticed that most SCA gamers are not into, say, GURPS. Maybe a little Whitewolf or Vampire, but it's mostly D&D.

Most of what we do that's not D&D is actually either an original system that the guy downstairs made up (that rules, btw. He's thinking of publishing it.) or RIFTS. ^_^

If you think about it Monty Python is almost about the SCA. Its a bunch of crazy peole runing around in modernday whearing medieval armor.
