Garth Marenghi: "(sat at his desk, reading from one of his novels: Slasher) Mike stared in disbelief as his hands fell off. From them protruded millions of maggots. Maggots!? Maggots. Maggots. Maggots. Maggots. Maggots. (Checks line)...Maggots. All over the post office floor, in Leytonstone."

Ya, why not...
Anybody else here who can't stand the sight of Reeves and Mortimer.Vic in particular in uniquely unlikable.

Father Stack: What are we watching?
Other Priest: We're watching the sports day.
Father Stack: Lots of young men running around in shorts? That's the kind of thing you'd be lookin at.And I bet you like that too. You're sittin there imagining what they look like without shorts on. You're sitting there, imagining that, with a big smile on your face; you dirty fecker!
Other Priest: Well, I think you're a very rude man!
Father Stack: If you ever say that again, I'll put your head through the wall.!
My Nominations:
Basil Fawlty "Oh, you're German, I thought there was something wrong with you"
Jim Royle - "I paid a quid for these bloody underpants and I've got fifty pence worth stuck up me arse"

thats uttter rubbish - re the x-mas special recently - and what the hell is the difference between Homer and Rab exactly - none!:rolleyes:Quote:
