So here's the test.

Holy mackerel that was funny! Most comedians pale in comparison to Palin, for he has a cerebral humor that is unmatched by any other. In this skit I feel as if Michael Palin is saying "Give a man a fish he eats for a day, teach a man the slappy fish dance, he'll dance for a lifetime ... or until he gets slapped in the face with a fish the size of a cricket bat and plunges into the the depths of the ocean where he becomes ein uber-snack for a Nazi uberfish, thus predicting the into future the ubiquitousness of Uber Eats."
