they got to the part where the MC has to... quote the entirety of War Games, and the value that's attributed to this, and they make the aside that "hey remember in grade school, how you could be the *funniest kid* by being able to quote from "The Mask" or whatever the funny movie/comedian du jour was?" and I'm like YEP. YEP, THERE'S YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE.

I am *frankly shocked* that Monty Python has not come up at all, or at least they haven't mentioned it, because I KNEW PEOPLE (multiple people) who thought the fucking ~height of social discourse and wit~ was *equivalent* to being able to quote large chunks of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" (for some reason "Life of Brian" and "Meaning of Life" were never as popular).

My social groups in college mostly quoted South Park. At work, we mostly riff off of unnecessarily “corporate-y” things that have been said either in announcements to employees or to the public by our own employer, which is at least a more locally inclusive basis for inside jokes.
