Monty Python: "Bicycle Repairman" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfzm9dfqBw
At a former job, I always used to say "it's all in a day's work for bicycle repairman" to my boss--because I'm a d-bag. 
I just happened to think of that skit today.
These guys were simply off their collective rockers.
I also like that Cleese's rant at the end sounds like a Town Hall meeting now. 
You've just made my night! "Look at how he uses that spanner..." When I was a mechanic, one of the sales guys used to wear a Superman T-shirt to work and we scribbled "Mr. F.G Superman" across the back. Not many people got it, but those who did thought it was great.
In reply to DustoffDave:
<-- still a part-time bicycle repairman, but no one @ the current gig would get the reference. Glad you did. 
Bwahahaha! Awesome! I've always loved Monty Python, and hadn't seen this one in ages. I will have to share with my coworkers in the repair department at work tomorrow.
I tried to laugh, but I just couldn't. I've never been able to watch Monty Python or 3 stooges and laugh. I just don't think it's funny. Now, Dumb and Dumber, that's comedy genius!
Tea's ready!
Alter Saddle!
Hilarious!
I like the one about airline pilots.

Commie!
I've modeled my 10 year bicycle repair man career after that skit. I do a silly walk across the parking lot too.
OK, I'm sorry. Who on this board HASN'T had some sort of extensive career in bicycle repair? Am I the only one?!
Dude(s). I just can't laugh at Monty Python. The tabacconist (sp) skit made the right 1/4 of my mouth smile for milliseconds straight but that's about it. Benny Hill can't do it for me either. Now Brian Regan, that's funny!

YOU TOO!!!!!
"A serving size on ice cream is like a half a cup. Is that like a joke some guy put on there? "Hey, come here: look what I put for the serving size. Did you see? I just did it as a joke but they're going out like that." You ever know anybody to eat a half a cup of ice cream? "Hey, you wanna go grab something to eat?" "Ah, no. I had a half a cup of ice cream. Ya, a whole half a cup. I just kept eating and eating and eating. I must've had two spoonfuls."
