Said Monk-Disciple 1: "Idiotic Time is the up-Side-down Prime-Time of the Southern Hemisphere celebrating the Winter Solstice Xmas during Summer-Solstice Time in the North-Western Hemisphere."

Said M-D 3: "The Idiotic Time now is the Royal Greenwi(t)ch Meridian Time with blue blood bulging in its veins multiplying at the speed of light in the damp darkness of the Mole's hole."
Said M-D 4: "Idiotic Time is the traditional Nor'-West blowing hurricane Time racially-crossed at the Düsseldorf barnyard by the Neanderthalian jaw-jutting Typhoon Time while tap-dancing to mumbo-jumbo Macarena Time."

Said M-D 7: "Idiotic Time is the time Cleopatra took to ditch her brother into a Harem for eunuchs and to exchange Caesar for Anthony while waiting for the Tuetihualcan sacrifices to catapult Gondwania into the iron grip of the Himalayas ruled by the Dalai Lama ever since 60 million years ago."
Said M-D 8: "Idiotic Time is the time it took between Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
