Yes, lovely.
A very versatile word indeed. Just imagine how many words can and do die out thanks to the versatility of this single word.

I am curious who was the first one to say this..
This exact same text has been attributed to various artists. Even the comment for this video, on Youtube, says:
"We have seen the original of this sketch being attributed to Jack Wagner, George Carlin and Monty Python - no one seems to be sure."

If anyone has any information about this, please do share.
