I done it again!

[Oeditpus Rex]

Late last night, out of nowhere, the scene from M*A*S*H in which Hawkeye says to Mulcahy, "Y'know, Father, in this light, you look just like a B-girl I once knew in San Diego," and Mulcahy replies, "It's possible. I woorked my way through Jesuit school as a B-girl in San Diego" popped into my head.

MeTV just showed that episode.

I've done that about 40 times now -- "foresaw" certain scenes from certain episodes of certain shows, usually M*A*S*H and I Love Lucy, because I've seen every episode of both a bare minimum of four times, 10 or so in many cases (more like 20 for Monty Python's Flying Circus, but it's my religion so it doesn't count).

I do that with Midsomer Murders

3. Nah, I ain't that good

Seriously, even after watching Monty Pyhon so much, when I think of a particular scene, I have to look up the episode it's from (except 14, which IMLO is the best overall of the 45).

(Speaking of Monty Python, if anyone can tell me where "I done it again!" comes from, they'll get a cookie.)

5. What kind of cookie?

Monty Pyhon and the Holy Grail, he shit his armor

6. 'Soiled,' that is

I'm sure you'll get a cookie of some kind in tgmhe next several years.

2. That must feel rather eerie.

4. It did at first

But when I'd done it six or seven times I just accepted it as part of my brain, which is pretty eerie to begin with.
