Sort of a dim bulb, is he?

"Monty, do you ever get the feeling that something unpleasant is going to happen?"

"I got it two days ago, when my Lord Tilbury reached for the slack of my trousers and started to heave me out."

"I've got it. I was saying so to Ronnie, and he told me not to be morbid."

"Ronnie knows words like 'morbid,' does he? Two syllables and everything?"

[from Heavy Weather, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse]
