Waste some time on a lazy Sunday with Monty Python's Silly Walks Generator.

seems more like the silly pseudo ragdoll physics. All the loaded sample walks fling the character around the screen. Nifty though.

Eric Idle makes me sad inside.

Remember when Monty Python was obscure in North America? Talking about it felt like talking about a close, shy friend who only came out on PBS when the moon was full.

That friend has turned into a common whore.

hey this is fun! it was pretty hard at first but with adjusted speed and silliness i got a little fun walk out of it. 10 frames is too short though.

could do without the music, though... don't remember a whole lot of pickin' and grinnin' music in the MP episodes...

freud, you can add more frames by clicking on the pointed finger after the first 10 frames...

Totally true. But alas, everyone needs money for retirement.

This isn't that funny. The silly walks skit was funny because it was a real person, not something on a screen. Also, This isn't 1960's England, and the ambience isn't as serious as it was back then...

I cannot overstate how offensive it is for MP to have a "show on Broadway." Fuck you, EI.

Yeah, isn't it horrible when good things become popular?

If you find having common whores as friends an odd thing, you must hang out in a totally different milieu than I.

I would argue that the world needs less nerd in-jokes and more common whores.
