When it comes to pillow fighting, if I mentioned the Wimpodites, would anyone get the reference?
OK, there was a Far Side cartoon that showed a bunch of Medieval doofuses on a longboat with a sheep carved on the prow being pursued by a ship of Vikings at whom pillows were being thrown, and the caption read something like:
"Despite being skilled with their pillow arsenal, the Wimpodites were a frequent target of the Vikings."
Always liked that one.
