Isn't there a Saint arrrggghhh in Cornwall?

I got a jabber message from Tess just now, and it's one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time:

[15:20] Oh, now k3yboa__ is toast. gonna hav 2 shut_own..

It's like in Monty Python and the Holy Grail when they find that cave where the dead guy had time to chisel into the wall "Aaaarrrrrggghhh..." before he died. Dammit. Now I have to go google for a transcript.

Here it is:

MAYNARD: It reads, 'Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Arimathea. He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the Holy Grail in the Castle of aaarrrrggh'.
ARTHUR: What?
MAYNARD: '...The Castle of aaarrrrggh'.
BEDEVERE: What is that?
MAYNARD: He must have died while carving it.
LAUNCELOT: Oh, come on!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what it says.
ARTHUR: Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't bother to carve 'aarrggh'. He'd just say it!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what's carved in the rock!
GALAHAD: Perhaps he was dictating.
ARTHUR: Oh, shut up.

That's the one I was thinking of.

You mock my pain! First lack of climate control, then ants, now a wonky PC. I swear, they're TRYING to get me to go on strike...
