I bow to mr smyling's greater knowledge.
It was very likely Peter Cook and not Cleese.
Insults Page 4
I walked past a bunch of young chavs the other day, about 9 years old I think? Anyway, one of them shouted out and called me "A f**king prick!", I just laughed it off. Another one called me, "Smelling rotten c**t flaps face", I was quite shocked but not too surprised. Then what I'm guessing was the youngest one, came right up to me and stared me straight in the face, took a deep breath and and said, "Chap-man!".
I f**king floored that little shit. He's laughing on the other side of intensive care unit now.
LOL
Lol @ one of them shouting "A f**king prick!".
Quote: KJSmyling @ April 14 2008, 11:26 PM BSTThe line actually comes from a Peter Cook monologue, from The Secret Policemans Ball 1981... The phrase was reportedly created by Billy Connolly moments before Cook walked out onto stage...
*Then we have been forced to listen to the pitiful whining of Mr Norma St.John Scott - a scrounger, parasite, pervert, a worm, a self-confessed player of the pink oboe*

Although Connolly suggested 'player of the pink oboe', it was Cook who polished it by prefixing it with 'self-confessed'...
(Must get a life one day.)
I still prefer 'piccolo'. Alliteration rules!

Alliteration may rule but think about it logically... a piccolo is really tiny and it is not placed between the lips but below the bottom lip and blown across...
Ignore me... I've just realised it's Aaron... it all makes sense now...

My fave is "You have a face like a bucket of smashed crabs".

And since when has logic entered into strange phrases and sayings in the English language?
