it's like you said ...
Grab as much as you can, because it's going to hurt.

I know, I know, it was never done, and ultimately it's not the point ....

“Peter Cook was once asked if he thought that satire had a political effect. He said, ‘Absolutely, the greatest satire of the 20th century was the Weimar cabaret, and they stopped Hitler in his tracks.’ ”
