The caption was because some didn't get the picture in some discussions. As for overkilling, that is your opinion. Plus the only edit warring was before the note.

* [[http://zanyvgquotes.com/ Zany VG Quotes]]'s Zero Wing page says, "It's dead, Jim," and has a link to the infamous intro that simply says "Oh hell, you already know what this one is." At one point there was a snarky comment about it being time to stop wearing the AYB t-shirts and repeating it all the time. Notable because the entire All Your Base fad can be traced back to a ZanyVG project.

* ''MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'' has been quoted so much, it's now a joke to mock the fact that it's quoted so much.
** An episode of ''The Simpsons'', when Homer goes to college, features blatant geeks quoting "Knights of Ni."
** Part of the lyrics of ''White And Nerdy'' by WeirdAlYankovic.
** ''DMOfTheRings'' had a strip where the players started quoting it. The author note stated the next ''DungeonsAndDragons'' edition should have the option to punish players for quoting the movie.
*** Incidentally, a handful of RPGs ( SeventhSea , specifially) actually have this enshrined in the rules.
** ''{{XKCD}}'' had a strip encouraging Python fans to celebrate the group by making up their own surreal, Pythonesque jokes rather than endlessly [[IncrediblyLamePun parroting]] their lines.
