Similarly, Cleese and Chapman absolutely predicted the cruelty meted out to job seekers. When this sketch aired decades ago, it was surreal comedy. Today, it's absolutely par for the course.
The Argument Clinic sketch remains one of my favorite all-time Monty Python bits. As a kid, I was fascinated by the wild anger of these men. As an adult, I see the sketch as a brilliant skewering of monetization and the ways that people limit their behavior to fulfill the cues of a tyrannical capitalist system, perpetuating a kind of socialized purgatory without end. It never fails to make me laugh.

I remember seeing a #MontyPython documentary where they comment on Terry Gilliam looking out the window while flying over the Great Lakes and saying 'look, a whole bunch of water' and I have thought about that every single time I have flown back into Michigan over a whole bunch of water.
