Trad and Monty Python
Trad lends itself so well to the humor of Monty Python, many of whose members (members of trad ethos) have an appreciation for the cerebral humor of those talented british guys.
Like the Lumber Jack Song:
Im a tra-ha-had and Im OK
I drink all night and play squash all day
Chorus: He's a Tra-ha-had and he's OK
He drinks all night and plays squash all day
I check my trusts, I wear alden heels
I drive a beat up caaaar
I wish Id attended an Ivy, just like my dear Papa!
Or the Knights of Ni scene from Monty Python's Holy Grail:
We are the Knights, who say Chipp
We shall say Chipp to you, IF you do not appease us!
We demand a ready made sack suit!
One that looks nice, and NOT too expensive
Nooooooow! Seeeeeeew! (cheep, cheep, shh!)

You could do the "Cheese" skit with a man in a custom-shop trying to get a jacket made of a certain cloth.

Favourite Python? The late Graham Chapman.
Driven & brilliant.

Re: Trad and Monty Python
I wonder if FNB realises that he has actually created the web's first post-modern Clothing Forum.

Re: Trad and Monty Python
I think FNB has gone beyond the post-modern... Far beyond.
