As such, I was exposed to the kind of humour that was apparently popular with my ilk, chiefly because they seemed intent on endlessly reciting it to each other. Monty Python became unbearable, Monkey Island intolerable, The Fast Show simply irritating. They would rave about Hitchhikers and it left me utterly stony cold. Not once even remotely funny. I've lost count of the times I've tried to read it, I feel like I'm supposed to like it, but not only is punishingly unfunny, it's so irritating in its relentless pursuit of something witty in every fucking clause, it's like nails on a blackboard. If you like it, brilliant, I'm glad you've got something that tickles your funny-bone. I just don't find it funny. At all. Grim Fandango looks like it's from that stable.
