Come, sir, choose your stoker.
What, are we going to tickle each other to death?
No, sir, we fight with cannon.
But I thought we were fighting with swords!
Swords?! What do you think this is, the Middle Ages? Only girls fight with swords these days! Stand by your gun, sir! Hup, two, three! Hup, two, three!
Look, wait a minute-
Stand by cannon for loading procedure! Stoke, muzzle, wrench!
[reading manual] "Congratulations on purchasing the Armstrong-Whitworth four-pounder cannonette. Please read instructions carefully and it shall give you years of trouble-free maiming."
Check elevation. Chart trajectory. Prime fuse. Aim...
Look, wait a minute-
FIRE!!!
