The very first one Magic 2.0 and the Christopher Moore books. The rest was me pretty much explaining my odd twisted sense of humor really.

I actually have a few of the monty python albums on my phone, it's set up in a way that when I'm in work listening to music occasionally it will shuffle in a sketch instead.
I'm not sure why Discworld doesn't appeal to me thinking about it I guess I just don't find puns very funny and the story arcs pretty weak. I did read several of his books and wanted to keep going just to have read them all but when I got to "Moving pictures" I just couldn't bear it.
Later I tried again and got as far as "Lords and Ladies" (was reading by release date) and gave up again so I have read a decent amount of his work but about 90% of the humour definitely bypassed me.
