The meaning of life
Try to be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations.
A couple of lines from the The Man Who Says Words in the Wrong Order sketch.
"Sometimes at the end of a sentence I'll come out with the wrong fusebox. And the thing about saying the wrong word is a] I don't notice it, and b] sometimes orange water given bucket of plaster."
TheWrongFusebox was my reddit account for... well over a decade.
I adore the bit where they're talking about woody and tinny words. I still describe words as such, it's perfect.

Oh and of course the dead parrot!
It's not dead.

Someone else said The Argument Clinic and that is definitely my favorite.
But my most referenced is "And now for something completely different."
The ministry of silly walks
- the holly grail
- python the programming language
The programming language is pretty good
The scene in the life of brian where he is naked after having sex he swings wide the window shutters and all the worshippers are packed in tight to see him. Its the hardest I ever laugh and my friend had to pause the movie. I was on the ground and got a laugh cramp and it was like 5 or 10 minutes before we could progress again watching it.
My top favourite is already the top most voted so I’ll just mention a few that I think are classics that I didn’t see on the list:
Sir robin bravely ran away
Holy hand grenade
The animator having a heart attack
In a happier timeline, there's a Judge Dredd movie with John Cleese as Dredd. Directed by Terry Gilliam.
Python, the programming language. At least the name
Probably The Crimson Permanent Assurance or The Art of Not Being Seen
"Mr. Bradshaw, will you stand up please?"

I like the defective Hungarian/English phrase book sketch a lot.

That a guy in a purple dress got super agroed about a movie he thought was about his crush in the name of his version of decency.
