My favorite routine is one that other people don't seem aware of: Fernet Branca. Bill and his wife go to Italy with another couple, and he feels his manhood shriveling up because the other guy is the only one who speaks Italian, so the women are constantly asking him to talk to the locals for them. Finally he becomes determined to order some food on his own: "And I figured that I could do it, because I had had 3 years of Latin I." Needless to say, it doesn't go well.
