    A short clip from Monty Python's Life of Brian in which an old man is about to be stoned for saying the word Jehovah. It features John Cleese and Graham Chapman in the film's well-known blasphemy trial scene.

    Quoted as a joke when commenters want to riff on absurd punishment for saying forbidden things.

    1. @huijzerJan 2025· in “Ending our third party fact-checking program and moving to Community Notes model”

      Reminds me of: Priest: “You have been found guilty by the elders of the town of uttering the name of our lord as so as a BLASPHEMER you are to be stoned to death.” […] Priest: “BLASPHEMY! He said it again!” Old man: “I don’t think it ought to be blasphemy. I just said ‘Jehova’” Priest: “You said it again! You’re only making it worse!” Old man: “Making it worse!? How can I make it worse!? Jehova, Jehova, Jenova!” this video

    2. @dennis_jeeves2Nov 2024· in “The AI reporter that took my old job just got fired”

      >I'm baffled why people think that AI-driven podcasts would ever be worth listening to It doesn't take much to entertain a substantial population of imbeciles. Reference: this video Now for the hat...

      So you're saying you're "deeply versed in the lingo, tone, and character of that scene"? Reminds me of: this video
