The nightmare of the insomniac

We can find treasures on youtube. Here is another little gem from Phylactère Cola (I got to get their DVDs at some point. I love the absurd humour. Wish I could find the original Québec version. Anyway, it just reminds me of so many sleepless nights and even moreso, of so many troubled sleeps I had. (And be warned: because of the subject, there is lots of swearing)

Ouais, faudrait qu'il mette la version originelle. Sacrer en anglais, c'est moins poétique que le vieux catéchisme poissard...

Haha I've been there....again and again and again

Oui, rien ne vaut les sacres québécois. en anglais, c'est moins naturel, quoique Phylactère Cola fait en général (et c'est le cas ici) d'excellentes traductions.

Lindsey, I felt the same when I watched it. Phylactère Cola are hilarious, they are Québec's Monty Python. I will try to get more, but they are difficult to find.

Except that they don't have the legendary status of Monty Python, even within Québec.

Mais ils ont le talent pour l'humour absurde. Des trucs comme "La maquette de couleurs", du classique à l'état pur.
