For those who can't handle the real truth, the spinners of fake truth at Wikipedia have a thoroughly boring article on Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

The Holy Hand Grenade (German: Tannenbaum), first introduced in Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail, was originally manufactured in Antioch in 1274 to aid St Attila the Killer's war against the local Rastafarians. Its exact specifications are unclear, since the one and only remaining example was lobbed properly in 1974. However, it is thought to be constructed in the manner prescribed by one of the lost books of the Bible; namely, the Book of Armaments.

How it works[edit | edit source]

The holy hand grenade is made up of: 50% gold, 10% gannet's guano nitre, 5% Holy Things, 5% Unholy things (like kitten huffers and grues), 40% grenadine, and 94.374582913% Hendrick's gin (with a twist of lemon) and a shit load of C-4. A subatomic reaction, much too complex for this paragraph but found elsewhere within this site, follows as the grenade explodes, releasing a perfusion of lethal abiguities. A starburst of subatomic charged archimandrites will sashay in a myriad directions with alacrity, subverting your target's firmament. A nucular reactor. And lots, and lots of thermite.

Armaments, 2:9-2:24[edit | edit source]

(2:9) And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade that, with it, thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."

(2:10) And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chunks of oatmeal and bananas and raisins and koalas and blueberries and grues.

(2:10.5) Skip a little bit.

(2:11) And all were greatly overwhelmed by this sight.

(2:12) But one did come forth, like a son of the Fire, who cried out, "Let this man not deceive you, for he doth lie."

(2:14) And so there was great confusion as to whom was the servant of the Lord.

(2:15) So Saint Attila did raise his voice to the Lord, saying, "O Lord, tell me, thy servant, how to use this thy hand grenade that, with it, thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."

(2:16) And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin.

(2:17) "Then, shalt thou count to three; no more, no less.

(2:18) "Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.

(2:19) "Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.

(2:20) "Five is right out.

(2:22) "Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

(2:22) "So Saint Atilla did raise the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch at his foes, and he did begin to take out the Holy Pin and counted."
