Artisan monkey trinket is an item involved with the Zodiac Training Treasure Hunter promotion and later the Zodiac Festival promotion. It was originally gained from completing one of the columns on the zodiac card, and later from event mystery box (Zodiac Festival). It gives an Artisan XP lamp if a certain amount of experience from Artisan skills is gained within 30 minutes while wearing it. At 99 in all artisan skills this experience is the same as the XP lamp reward: 25,806; with 120 Herblore the XP requirement increases to 26,214 and the XP gained increases to 26,616. After claiming the XP lamp there is a 15-minute cooldown shared with all monkey trinkets before it can be activated again. If the XP lamp can't be claimed when the challenge completes, it can be claimed through the option "claim lamp" on the trinket.
The trinket comes with five charges. More charges could be gained by completing more Zodiac Training tasks or converting red envelopes after completing all the tasks.
When activated, the trinket occasionally says one of the following lines:
- I'm so hungry. Feed me! Feed me more of your lovely experience.
- I can hear my tummy rumbling. Well, something is rumbling. More experience!
- I'm feeling weak from hunger. Please feed me.
- Such delicious experience. You have satisfied my hunger. I will furnish you with an Artisan XP Lamp. (This line only appears when the trinket is appeased and the XP lamp is rewarded into backpack.)
- I'm fit and ready to burst after all that experience, but you don't have room for me to reward you with an XP lamp. (This line only appears when the trinket is appeased with full backpack.)
They ask her questions like whether she can float in water, turn people into newts, or weigh the same as a duck. Each time she denies being a witch, but the villagers twist her words and use them as evidence against her. Eventually, the villagers decide to test if Mrs. Hargreaves is a witch by weighing her against a duck. If she weighs the same as the duck, it means she floats in water and is therefore a witch. They tie her to a large scale and bring in a duck. The absurdity of this situation is highlighted as the villagers struggle to balance the scale, with one of them even suggesting that the duck may be a bit buoyant. In the end, the sketch ends with the villagers concluding that Mrs. Hargreaves is indeed a witch as she weighs the same as a duck. They proceed to take her away to be burned at the stake, continuing the absurdity and satirical commentary on mob mentality and irrational beliefs. The Monty Python "Witch Scene" is a classic example of their unique style of comedy. It combines clever wordplay, over-the-top performances, and ridiculous situations to create a memorable and hilarious sketch. The scene also reflects the group's larger themes of social commentary and the exploration of human nature through comedy. Overall, the "Witch Scene" is a prime example of Monty Python's comedy genius and continues to be celebrated as one of their greatest sketches..
Reviews for "Monty Python's Witch Scene: The Birth of Surreal Comedy"
1. Jane - 2 stars
I found "Monty Python wutch svene" to be quite confusing and unfunny. The humor seemed forced and I struggled to understand what was going on. The plot was all over the place and the characters lacked depth. Overall, I was disappointed and would not recommend this film to others.
2. Michael - 1 star
I cannot comprehend why "Monty Python wutch svene" has such a cult following. I found it to be extremely chaotic and nonsensical. The humor was juvenile and often relied on shock value rather than clever wit. The constant yelling and overacting from the cast became grating after a while. I honestly do not understand why it is considered a classic comedy.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I must admit, I had high expectations for "Monty Python wutch svene" given its reputation. However, I found myself incredibly bored throughout the film. The jokes fell flat and the slapstick humor became repetitive. The film seemed to lack a coherent narrative and instead relied on random sketches strung together. I can see why some may enjoy it for its absurdity, but it just wasn't my cup of tea.
4. John - 2 stars
As a fan of British comedy, I was excited to watch "Monty Python wutch svene." However, I was left disappointed. While I appreciate the group's unique style of humor, I found this particular film to be convoluted and lacking substance. Many of the jokes were hit-or-miss, and the constant use of absurdity became tiresome. It's definitely an acquired taste, and unfortunately, it was not one that worked for me.
