Honorverse Humor or lack thereof.

Now, I don't know if you're up to it or not (and anybody else feel free to try), but I have a small challenge: can you do something similar with Abbott & Costello's Who's on First? Maybe an updated Grayson version? Or is this one of those routines that just defies updating?

I know there's a version where rock bands (Yes, The Who, and The Band) are substituted:

This one is a bit lame, but follows the same idea:

There's gotta be *some* way to do it, but I'm afraid my creative writing skills are sadly lacking.

Yu...I mean you asked for it Maxx...

Wesley Matthews has just received two brand spanking new snotties. Seymour Butts and Eatma Schit. Benjamin has just received Hugh Arai, a very special visitor from Torch.

Benjamin: "I love our new 1st Fleet, I promised Commander Hugh Arai here a tour. Commander Wright will accompany us. And afterwards, Iam Cox, Mistress Thorn's newly hired assistant will serve us. Due to time constraints we will delay formal introductions until the meal. Now, Wesley, Who's commanding newly created 1st fleet?"

Wesley: Yu.

Benjamin: Who is?

Wesley: Yu.

Benjamin: Who is?

Wesley: No.

Benjamin: Name the Commander of newly created 1st Fleet.

Wesley: Yu, sir!

Benjamin: Who?

Wesley: No, Sir.

Benjamin: Who is commanding it?

Wesley: Respectively sir, no he isn't.

Benjamin: Who isn't?

Wesley: No Hugh is not sir.

Benjamin: Who is?

Wesley: Hugh...is...not...sir.

Protector: Who is not?

Wesley: Agreed.

Protector: Agreed what?!

Wesley: I agree that Hugh is not commanding 1st.

Protector: I know Hugh isn't commanding 1st. Who is?

Wesley: Yu sir!

Protector: Admiral, have you been smoking Stilthy?

Wesley: I am not an addict sir.

Protector: I know he isn't. We just hired him! Now, CO of first, who is?

Wesley: No sir. Hugh is not.

Protector: No who's not?!

Wesley: Right.

Protector: I know commander Wright isn't. Who is?

Wesley: I just told you Hugh wasn't.

Benjamin: I DIDN'T ASK YOU WHO WASN'T. I ASKED YOU WHO WAS?

Wesley: Hugh was not commanding anything sir, he's simply here to deliver a message from Queen Berry.

Benjamin: I know what Hugh is doing! Who is commanding 1st?

Wesley: Yu!

Benjamin: I am not commanding anything.

Wesley: I know sir, Iam's just a Butler.

Benjamin: You are not a Butler, but you will be if you don't stop this nonsense!

Wesley: You can't do that sir. I am the Admiral of the Fleet! And Yu takes orders from me.

Benjamin: You are treading thin ice Wesley. I don't take orders from anyone and Iam's not an Admiral he's a Butler!

Wesley: What? Who is?

Benjamin: Who is what?

Wesley: Hugh is here as an envoy of Queen Berry.

Benjamin: I am (s)ick of this and you will be canned!

Wesley: You can't can Yu. If you can Yu. Who will command 1st?

Benjamin: Hugh is here to deliver a message from Berry!

Wesley: Hugh is here to deliver a message from Berry.

Benjamin: Stop parroting me Wesley!

Wesley: Protector I am not parroting You.

Protector: I know Iam isn't parroting Yu. You are parroting me.

Wesley: He is? I didn't hear Yu say anything.

Protector: That's frickin obvious Wesley. But if you value your career, you better start listening. Now let me try this again, with a simpler question. Think before you answer Wesley. Tell me the names of the new snotties.

Wesley: Seymour Butts, Eatma Schit.

Protector: Wesley Matthews, as soon as Honor gets here, I will acquire the services of her as my Champion. By Tester's Temperament, I will have you beheaded.

Wesley: But but but...

Protector: I will see your butt with a sword in it shortly!

Hi Pokermind,

That was brilliant!

Kudos seems too shallow a compliment.

Ok, I have to admit. This went over my head. Slow down Pokermind.

My friends had to point it out to me. This post has gone up on my friends mancave. Haven't seen it yet, but I will.

He said to ask you what's your middle name? Strokermind? Because you poke and stroke people's minds prompting them to think. I am in no position to deny, as I completely missed your last one.

Pokermind is my treecat name, I have a poker-mind to go with my poker-face so the fleabags cant cheat when I bluff

PS When I'm feeling snarky I let Mange do the talking

little dinosaur, lower left corner, is it me or is he wearing a Homburg hat. Silly I noticed this before Fred and Wilma.

Chief, "A funny from another verse, Taylor Anderson's Destroyemen series that David recommends, these are suggestions to the artist. I sized my latest suggestions for changes to fit our forums showing larger view of art, green monkey joe with steam, and green eyes on 'Spanky'; rank and shirt buttons on 'Tabby':



Suggested old schoolyard taunt for title:

'Spanky and Tabby in engineering K-I-S-S-I-N-G'"

<Not bad, she needs another set of legs though.>

"Different 'verse cat, Tabby is a Character in Taylor Anderson's Destroyermen series."

<Well she is out of uniform in any 'verse the Duckk will not be happy.>

"Oops. Well it's hot in a WW II Destroyer's engine room especially for poor furry critters."

<And you'll need to put her in a shower to make Fly happy.>
