Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch
The Holy Hand Grenade (German: Tannenbaum), first introduced in Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail, was originally manufactured in Antioch in 1274 to aid St Atilla the Killer's war against the local Rastafarians. Its exact specifications are unclear, since the one and only remaining example was lobbed properly in 1974. However, it is thought to be constructed in the manner prescribed by one of the lost books of the Bible; namely, the Book of Armaments.
How it works[編集 | ソースを編集 ]
The holy hand grenade is made up of: 50% gold, 10% gannet's guano nitre, 5% Holy Things, 5% Unholy things (like kitten huffers and grues), 40% grenadine, and 94.374582913% Hendrick's gin (with a twist of lemon) and a shit load of C-4. A subatomic reaction, much too complex for this paragraph but found elsewhere within this site, follows as the grenade explodes, releasing a perfusion of lethal abiguities. A starburst of subatomic charged archimandrites will sashay in a myriad directions with alacrity, subverting your target's firmament. A nuclear reactor. And lots, and lots of thermite.
Armaments, 2:9-2:24[編集 | ソースを編集 ]
(2:9) And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade that, with it, thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."
(2:10) And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chunks of oatmeal and bananas and raisins and koalas and blueberries and grues.
(2:10.5) Skip a little bit.
(2:11) And all were greatly overwhelmed by this sight.
(2:12) But one did come forth, like a son of the Fire, who cried out, "Let this man not deceive you, for he doth lie."
(2:14) And so there was great confusion as to whom was the servant of the Lord.
(2:15) So Saint Attila did raise his voice to the Lord, saying, "O Lord, tell me, thy servant, how to use this thy hand grenade that, with it, thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."
(2:16) And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin.
(2:17) "Then, shalt thou count to three; no more, no less.
(2:18) "Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.
(2:19) "Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
(2:20) "Five is right out.
(2:22) "Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."
(2:22) "So Saint Atilla did raise the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch at his foes, and he did begin to take out the Holy Pin and counted."
(2:23) "One...Two...Five." "Three, sir." "THREE!"'''

What if we would only be able to count to... no, my head asplodes, the possibilities are endless. For in the future, perhaps, we could count to six, even seven if we are not afraid to reach for the stars. And then what? eight? maybe nine? It can't be true! A Void lies beyond that daring figure. What is it??? Unspeakable Name! Ten!!! I will be burned at the stake. Forgive me! I am blaspheming. Who will believe me? What comes after that? Nobody knows! Oh curse... please pull the Holy Pin out now! But what if there was a number after ten, yes there should be and thou shall call it eleven. But people will call me devil worshipper for judging the way of god, For now i will be, withou...

Misconceptions[編集 | ソースを編集 ]
It is believed that the Holy Hand Grenade is actually a symbol for the rule of Christ over the whole Earth, through a cross placed above a globe. However, there are many holes in this belief. For example, it is unlikely that Earth would be represented by a sphere in the minds of a flat-earther medieval person.
