whats the funniest moment you've ever read (or watched) in the series?
Having just reread
Outcast, this is the moment that first came to mind for me (and this probably reveals a lot about me ;)):
Quote from: Excerpt from Outcast of Redwall, by Brian JacquesBryony stopped throwing the berries and stamped her foot-paw on the bank, looking sternly at the grinning little bank-vole. "Don't say such awful things!"
This seemed to encourage the tiny creature; he leapt in the air, waving his paws wildly. "Ferret smashed inta likkle bits! Yeeheehee! Lotsa bits! 'Had one place, paws anuther, fur everywhere, tail inna nundred bits. Smashed ferret! Yeehee-heehee!"
This probably isn't *the* funniest moment, but it's a moment, definitely.
My favourite bit has to be in Marlfox, where Cregga dumps Florian into the actor's cart and kicks it away in the direction of Redwall. Hahaha!
Or it might be when Gonff pulls faces at Tsarmina in Mossflower. :P

Good one. I also like when Lonna Bowstripe goes out and shouts, 'My name is Lonna Bowstripe! I eat rats!' OK, maybe that's not funny, but I think it is.
"Tanzee panzee toogle do... Boo!"
Love that whole chapter. The Pearls of Lutra, if you were wondering. I love any moments with Dibbuns, like DAB.
I'm currently rereading
Triss, and I found this little gem.
Quote from: Triss by Brian Jacques
Shogg interrupted, asking and answering his own questions. "Ahoy there, Welfo, me ole mate, 'ow are ye?" "Oh, Shogg, I'm fine, I'm much better, thank you!" "Ho that's nice, now you git yoreself well, missie, an' eat lots o' good vittles." "Oh, I will. Thank you for coming to see me!" "Aye, an' thank ye for chattin' t'me, mate. Nice talkin' t'ye!"
Best one-sided conversation ever!
There's alot of funny moments I can't say which is the funniest.
Another for Shogg's onesided conversation with Welfo! :D
Oh, oh, I love Mariel's first meeting with Tarquin! The hares are hilarious, but I must say, Tarkers took the cake in that one.
And let's not forget Bosie's ode to Brother Torilis!
QuoteOch, were ye no a babby once,
ye hairy auld yahoo?
Ah'll bet yore kindfolk got a fright
when they set eyes on you.
BFF's from the very first. :') ....or not.
OH! And all of Horty's songs in Loamhedge! And....! And I'll stop there.
Hahaha I like when tira meets major frunk (at least I think it's major frunk... Whoever "The fool of the sea" is) and she tries to figure out his different personalities ;D
Tiria*
I forget which book tis, but a character starts dancing with a crab.

It is from Mossflower and Gonff dances with the crab. It also happens in Legend of Luke, I think.
I think it's in The Legend of Luke before they meet the "ghosts". I don't remember it in Mossflower though
I think when Dotti sings it is hilarious. Brocktree and everyone else runs and hides, but Southpaw and Bobweave stay, cheer, and praise her.
I was just watching Redwall on YouTube, and I like it when Basil and Jess tease the vermin. I really laughed, and my sister asked, 'What is it?'
:D

Cluny: Get that rabbit! I want his head!
Basil: What? Your own head not good enough?
What book was it where there was that hare with the name that just went on and on and on and on etc. I always thought he was really funny because other beasts would get sooooooo annoyed. Does anybody know what book that was?

(I might have said that before somewhere...)

Oh yes. Me and my siblings really love Basil for things like that. He was so funny!
Yes, Basil! He's one of my absolute favorites. While we're on Redwall, the scene where Matthias first meets the shrews is hilarious, in my opinion. All that arguing. :'D

I'm not charging because you said charge. XD
I'm re-reading Martin the Warrior at the moment, and I came across something that made me laugh out loud when I first read it.
Quote from: Martin the Warrior chapter 10A halfeaten mushroom pastie was flung from the lean-to and struck Felldoh squarely between his ears. The pastie was followed by a hare, who dived on it, jumping on Felldoh's head in the process. "Bad form that, chuckin' a chap's supper about, Rowan. Hey there! There's a bally squirrel here, tryin' to use me pastie as a hat!"
It gets me every time. ;D
In Mattimeo, basically anything to do with Baby Rollo. When he sings, copies the moles, or just gets into general trouble, I must have bust out laughing everytime.
I know there's been a ton of funny moments for me, but I know I always burst out laughing during Legend of Luke when Gonff started dancing with the crab.
Hehe yes! That was a good one Lady Shael! Gonff was always making me laugh as well.
From the Taggerung:
Ho welcome to the feast, you beast,
I hopes you trip and fall.
I've got a fat grandpa, ha ha ha,
Who'll prob'ly eat it all.
The lark defends his feathery chest,
The sun has sunk into his vest,
If he don't bathe before too long,
There'll be an awful pong...
Love that part, and how his grandpa thought he was talented and didn't realise he was singing about him!

The hare was from Outcast of Redwall, his name was Jodd, thats the short version, DO NOT make me try to say his full name. he eventually got married, i wonder if his wife ever found out about his long name?
My funniest moment, (or the one i can remember the most) was when Clecky from Pearls of Lutra was singing that song (somthing about a very large food fight) at the Ruddaring Holt while Viola and someone else were shooting peas a him and Clecky ended up blaming the shrew sons of LogaLog. that was just hilarious.

I like that one too. I copied it out for my mum. :D :D :D :D
I like at the end of rakkety tam when a story is told about a hare at salamandastron that had dust on his sword, so the drill Sargent told him to shine it until he could see his face in it. Later that night, a captain was walking along the beach on the way to his bed when he saw the hare still shining his blade. When he stopped to complement on his sword and ask if he was going to go to sleep, the hare replied that he can't stop until he sees the sergeant's face in his blade. But he couldn't find it ;D
Love that story

His grandfather was the one who said he had great talent, in defence to Boorab the Fool's dislike of the display.
Basil getting a piece of celery in his ear at the feast at the beginning of Mattimeo is pretty funny

That was from the movie? That explains why I couldn't remember the quote when my friend said it to me!
One of my family's favorites is at the end of Outcast of Redwall:
Rillbrook: "Watch now, I'll show you something my father showed me, just as his father showed him..."
Burrbob: "An' his father showed him, just as his Aunt Thingummy showed him an'..."
We quote that one all the time! There are so many other funny parts I could be here a long time trying to list them all, but that previously mentioned scene in Pearls of Lutra cracks me up every time!
Actually, it's the following, which a few words possible wrong,:
"My name is Rillbrook the Wanderer, son of Rillbrook the Wanderer, my grandsire's name was Rillbrook the Wanderer..."
"And I suppose his grand aunt's name was Rillbrook the Thingummy."

Aunty Bangtail. LOL!
Little Burrbob was hilarious. I always grin when I read about Rillbrook getting the leverets to treat him like a proper guest by complaining. Cute.
Gonff pretending he was riding a cloud, then being captured by the Kotir vermin was hilarious
Quote from: Log-a-Log on July 15, 2011, 09:22:37 PM

That's why I like Gonff. Tomorrow he's going to be my favorite.
I often have different favorites every day depending on what book I'm reading but Gonff has been one favorite that is always one of my favorites. (If that makes any sense.)
Have we mentioned Dotti's corrections on the spelling and drawing skills of Ruff during Lord Brocktree? ROFL
I've been flipping through Legend of Luke recently, it's a pretty serious book..
Thrugg cleaning the stoats Dingeye and Thura is funny, Plus you have to admire vermin stupidity such as; when Vilu tries to make a joke about the ship Sayna but the vermin just dont get it.
What about when Thrugg returned home with the icetor flowers in Salamandastron and got chased around by his sister?
Blaggut and Slipp make a funny vermin pair
My personal favorite is Keyla's discussion with the vermin guards about the "fever" in MTW :D.
"Lend me your battleaxe, big fellow. Oof! On second thought, you hold it."
-Jess Squirrel, "Mattimeo", page 298
"Right then, I'll die here, but I'll take a few of you with me. Well, come on, froggies. Who's first? Or are you going to sit there clicking and grocking until I die of old age!"
- Mariel lalking to the toads, "Mariel of Redwall", page 48
Basil's diversion in Redwall. Hilarious!
When Swinkee cries over his tail in Salamandastron. I know we've mentioned it before, but I simply must again for the utter awesomeness that it is: Swinkee's accent is HILARIOUS. Over and out. 8)
In Rakkety Tam, when the Redwallers are all in the gatehouse puzzling over the riddle, and Brookflow starts giggling like crazy while demolishing a scone. :D
There's a few moments I remember fondly.
"Salamandastron": Ferahgo gets burned by scorching hot water, and Klitch has a big grin on his face. Always funny when it happens to somebody else.
"Martin the Warrior": Pallum mimicking The Warden's "I am the law!" I was disappointed when the mocking didn't appear in the TV show.
"Legend of Luke": Beauclaire ranted about a bunch of things, then Vurg's response was "You didn't say wot wot." In the same book, Beauclaire was saying nonsense nautical terms, he was asked whether he knew what any of that meant, and he replied no.
"Lord Brocktree": Dotti's mad at her pals for forcing a boring job on her, so she revises the instructional diagram she was given, making Ruff fat among other things. Eventually the pals return, and Ruff takes a look and says "Oi, that ain't the way I drew it."
"Triss": Scarum getting his teeth stuck in the boat.
"Rakkety Tam": Yoofus is gloating that he knows the woods like he knows his wife's face. Doogy calls his bluff and covers his wife's face, asking what color her eyes are. Yoofus makes a wrong guess, leading his wife to scream at him.
"High Rhulain": Cuthbert yells "HAHAAR!", waking up Tiria like a bucket of ice cold water.
"Eulalia!": Some goodbeast threw a snake at Kurdly's face. "But [the snake's] tail landed in the fire. This move did not improve the snake's temper."
Just about anything with Basil Stag Hare is funny. Book or tv show.
This bit in Mattimeo:
Mangiz:' I will not stand here to be insulted by this hedgepig!'
Ambrose: 'Then stand somewhere else and I'll insult you there, featherbag!'
XD!
Also in Mossflower, when Trubbs and co. talk in sequence. LOL.
Grubb, Bagg and Runn chopping the searats grappling hooks is hilarious
Beau in legend of Luke was simply the best! Funniest character I've seen!
I have a few:
The "Flurgy Twinj" in Martin the Warrior.
When Tess told Vitch there was a bee on his tail and slapped it with a thorn branch in Mattimeo.
When Vitch thinks he got bitten by a pike in the Mattimeo TV series.
Threeclaws: Are you sure it was a pike?
Vitch: Well, it wasn't a tadpole. XD
There are so many funny moments it's hard to choose, but here's one that's always been a favorite of mine (and that always makes me laugh:
'"Supreme sacrifice, wot? Chap keepin' another chap afloat in a bally swamp with his harolina. Not many'd do that y'know. Bet Hon Rosie'd think it was a jolly noble effort on my part- fact I'm sure she would!" He turned to the big frilled lizard that was following him. I mean to say, a chap's harolina is a very personal possesion, wot? Omigosh! Eulaliaaa!" Tarquin suddenly brained the lizard with the harolina, knocking it flying into the swamp.'
---Mariel of Redwall
Love that bit. By the way, I'm new here. Hi everybody! *waves*
Tarquin was a great character
Quote from: Log-a-Log on July 26, 2011, 08:30:20 PM
Tarquin was a great character
As most of the main character hares are.
The part in Mossflower where Martin and Gonff are sitting in Kotir's prison cells, having acquired their escape tools, and Martin says "Goodness me, a stick. How helpful. We could take this place single-pawed with a stick. What a useful thing to send us." Cracks me up every time! Matrin has a great sense of humor. ;D

I forgot about this one. I love it! Always makes me laugh.
I like Martin's sense of humor too. :) For me the funniest part was the bragging contest between Bucko and Dotti! I love that part!
Although Thrugg is pretty funny too, when he returns with flowers of Icetor and tells his somewhat irritated sister Thruggann that there was a question he'd been waiting to ask her the entire journey. She instantly forgets her irritation that he'd taken so long, and says fondly "And what might that be, o brother of mine?" To which Thrugg replies "What's for tea? I'm starved!" :P
Another good one is when Gonff is dancing with the crab. Teeheehee!
Haha I'd forgotten about the flurgy twinj! And I can't even go back and read Martin the warrior because I've blooming well lost my copy!
Southpaw and Bobweave were great when they boxed each other for rights to cleaning Dotti's harolina
Quote from: Log-a-Log on July 27, 2011, 04:16:33 PM
Southpaw and Bobweave were great when they boxed each other for rights to cleaning Dotti's harolina
And they were the only two creatures who actually liked her singing, let alone be able to stand it! ;D
I just red that scene! Made me laugh so much! :D
Yeah. Dotti's one of my faves. ;D
Aye, ye've gotta love the boaztin' contezt between her an' Bucko.
Yep. Too funny. ;D
I know it isn't meant to be funny, but I love it in Outcast of Redwall when Skarlath names Sunflash and Sunflash starts running around going "I have a name! I have a name!"
What about in Triss where Bladd is getting chased by Kurda with the sword? I knwo it's not exactly FUNNY, but for some reason, it cracks me up every time! And then at the beginning of Triss where the three are locked in the cells and Shogg calls out to Flith "Don't go sittin' on yore spear vermin, or you'll damage yer brains!" That is hilarious.
Heehee. Love that part. ;D :D
My all time favorite is the bragging contest between Dotti and Bucko.
"Ah wiz born on a moonless night 'midst thunder'n'lightnin'!"
"Tut tut, what dreadful weather you had. Did you get wet?"
That entire scene makes me literally lol everytime!

That scene is the best! I love it when Bucko says something about having looked death in the face, and she says "Now that you mention it, you are looking a bit pale. Have you got a tummyache?" *Bucko raises his paws to strike her* "Ah yes, exercise is always good for a stomach-ache. Hup two, keep at it, Sah!"
Maudie: Gorbadge in sick ratata bestray, and you red him to broughtwall?
More from Maudie:
"Yah, gerroff, you swoggle-toothed bounders! If I could jolly well get free I'd biff your snouts off! Just you wait, I'll poison your porridge, I'll sabotage your salad, I'll destroy your duff, I'll...I'll... wahoo!"
....and she's tossed into the room, stuffed in a flour sack. XD Love this gel!
Anything with Grubbage or Bungo. :D
When Bargle and Mayon are ragging Florian over him sitting on a salad fork.
Florian: A frog's feather for you lot!...I will not stand here to be insulted!Bargle: Then sit down if y'dare!
I always laugh at that bit! :D :D
"Calm down, I'll not have language like that under my roof."
"EULALIA 'N' BLOOD 'N' FUR 'N' VINEGAR, MARM!"
Argument between Tammo's parents... not exact, but never fails to make me smile. :D
Hahaha! :D
Yik: 'Flippin' bloomin' wotwot, I wanna go wiv 'er!'
That whole part always makes me smile.
Some funny moments (to me at least), was with Jukka the Sling and Grood. It was funny.
Jukka: What think thee, Grood?
Grood:........
Jukka: Watch thou tongue Grood!
He only said one line, and he wasn't saying anything bad, but she told him to stop using that language. He usually never got to say anything though.
LOL I liked Grood. He was always getting smacked for language - apparantly too heinous for we, the readers, to see - but Dotti was better at that sort of thing. One wonders where these kiddos learn the stuff! ;D
It's not really meant to be funny, I don't think, but in Rakkety Tam, when the captain, Wonwill, and the patrol are marching out to meet the vermin - Fortindom and Wonwill are just then making their battle plans. As they are marching onto the field. Wut? XD I LOL whenever I get to that part, haha.
I was just reading Triss, and it was funny when the Dibbuns are hounding Memm Flackery and Sister Vernal, and then Log-a-log comes in and says, 'A big rat ran down the stairs with a bag of strawberries! We can't 'ave that, can we? Get 'im!'
That bit made me smile. :D
This part from Mattimeo:
It was difficult for Mattimeo to ignore Vitch. Now the rat was wiggling a paw to his snout end at his enemy. The young mouse straightened his back from the pile of baskets. "Right, that's it! I've taken all I can stand of his insults." Quickly Tess doged past Mattimeo and ran towards Vitch, who was still grimacing impudently. Angrily, the young churchmouse picked up the first thing that came to her paws. It was a pliant rose stem. "Look out, Vitch, there's a great big wasp on your tail," she cried out urgently. "Stay still, I'll get it!" Startled by Tess's warning cry, Vitch obeyed instantly, turning and bending slightly so she could deal with the offendng insect. There was no sign of a wasp behind Vitch. Tess swung the rose stem, surprised at her own temper but unable to stop the swishing descent of the whippy branch. It thwacked down hard across Vitch's bottom with stinging speed. Swish, crack! Yeeehooooooowowow!" The rat straightened like a ramrod. Leaping high in the air, he rubbed furiously with both paws at the agonizing sting.
Cornflower came hurrying over. "Oh, dear, the poor creature. What happened, Tess?"The young churchmouse looked the picture of innocence, though she felt far from it. Blushing deeply, she stammered an excuse. "Oh golly. Vitch had a wasp on his bottom, but I couldn't brush it off in time. I think he's been stung."Vitch was thrashing about on the grass, tears squeezing out onto his cheeks as he rubbed furiously at his tender rump. Cornflower was genuinely concerned. "Oh, you poor thing. Don't rub it, you'll make it worse. Go to Sister May at the infirmary and she'll put some herb ointment on it for you. Tess, show him where it is please." Scrambling up, Vitch avoided Tess's paw and dashed off, sobbing. Tess turned to Matimeo. "Aaahhh, poor Vitch. It must be very uncomfortable," she said, her voice dripping sympathy. Mattimeo tried hard to keep a straight face. "Indeed it must. It's a terrible thing to be stung on the bottom by a churchmouse, er, wasp, I mean." Cornflower put her paws about them both. "Yes, of course. Now you two run off and play. There may be other wasps about and I don't want either of you stung."
So hilarious! The best part is, they didn't even get punished for it! Hahahahahahaha! :D ;D
Love that part. Too bad it wasn't in the show...
It wasn't!?!?!?!?!?! >:( >:( >:(
Now I'm never going to watch the Mattimeo cartoon show. >:(
You're missing out...
It'll probably ruin my impression of Slagar. Then I'll never like him as a villian again. And I think Slagar's awesome. It would probably ruin his voice. I liked the Martin the Warrior cartoon, though.
I like everything that goes on between Kurda and Plugg Firetail. :D :D I love Plugg. He's my second favourite villain.

How do you imagine Slagar's voice, Nightfire?
I actually saw the show before I read Mattimeo, so, the show Slagar's my Slagar voice...
One of my favourite parts is when Boorab meets Cregga.
'Oh corks! Oh crumbs! Marm, oh marm! You must be Lady Cregga Rose Eyes, the wild-eyed warrior queen, the belle of the blinkin' Bloodwrath, the kill--
Heeheehee. :D
I love the part from Mossflower with Brogg and Tsarmina.
Quote:
Brogg: Go through the army, Milady?
Tsarmina:Yes, Jellybrains. You and Ratflank take them one by one to the cells.
Brogg: Yes, Milady
Tsarmina: Will you stop interrupting me and listen! All anyone ever says around here is "yes Milady" or "no, Milady".
Brogg: Yes, Milady
Tsarmina: Shut up! Get them one by one in a cell, pull their whiskers, then check their fur. Is their tail their own tail?
Brogg: Er, is it Milady?
Tsarmina: That's what I want you to find out, nitwit
Yeah, I like that. Also when Baby Dumble threatens Wild King MacPhearsome. ;D He is so funny. :D :D
When Brookflow is giggling and eating a scone at the same time.
"Missie, yore goin' to do yerself a nastiness, gigglin' an' vittlin' like that!"
This:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj-dptNy70I
Another favorite of mine is when Baliss is going berserk and constantly drowning himself to cure the pain of hedgehog spikes! :D :D
I know, it's morbid, but I thought it was hilarious.
"What on earth is a jubilation?"
I loved the part where Mariel pegs Bowly with a rock, and then he's saying: "See this 'ere rock wot I tripped over? We'll if you two don't stop makin' sport o' me, I'll biff ye with it!"
Or something like that. I love how he thought a stale oatcake was a rock. :D

My favorite scene with Beau
QuoteThe hare shook his hoary silver head, returning the smile. "Knew y'father well, sah. Excellent chap! I'm Beauhair Fethringham Cosfortingsol. No I ain't, I'm Beausol Fethringhair Cosfortingclair. No I ain't. I'm Beauham Rethringclair Confounditall. Tchah! I'm so old I'm forgotten me own name. What a disgrace, wot!"
Vurg sniggered. "Heehee, try Beauclair Fethringsol Cosfortingham. That's yore silly long name."
The hare scratched his scraggy whiskers. "Ah! Of course it is. Thank you, old chap." Then, scratching his whiskers again, he turned on Vurg. "On the other paw, who asked you, sah, you battered old mouserelic? When I need somebeast to tell me m'name I'll jolly well ask m'self. Pish tush! The very idea, tellin' a chap his own moniker!"

I love that Part! And it's the long patrol
Friar Butty, from the Long Patrol. That was funny.
"It's a ghost!!" ;D
Heeheehee. :D
Also every exchange between Badrang and Clogg. :D
I know it's not supposed to be funny, but I always laugh when one of Luke's crew was saying to Vilu Daskar that they'd have defended their tribe if they'd been there, and Daskar says, 'But instead you chose to go off and gather daisies'. LOL. ;D
Martin, in Mossflower:
"Goodness me, a stick. How helpful. We could take this place single-pawed with a stick. What a useful thing to send us."
I can just picture him saying it lol.
That was my favorite funniest moment, too!!! ;D :D
Ah think when Bella ordered cluny tah leave the h'abbey
It was a crack-up when Badrang's hordes were falling off the cliffs.
"Waaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!"
One of my favorite parts is when plugg firetail takes off his tail and dances around the fire & sings!!!!!
Sooooooooo funny!!!!
This was years ago now that I read it but there was a scene where two non-too-bright, yet rather friendly weasels (or stoats) found their way into the abbey. There they met the Dibbuns of who (whom?) started bossing the older animals around. There was a certain thing they said that made me laugh - can't remember which book this was, though! :)

Maybe you're thinking of the book
Salamandastron, and those stoats named Dingeye and Thura?
Or you might be thinking of the rats in The Bellmaker, that section always cracked me up! :D

I agree! Blaggut is soooo hilarious. "Bless der liddle 'earts!" ;D
I have to say that it was so funny I too enjoyed it a lot.
It probably was one of those moments!
Rereading Lord Brocktree at the moment, the banter between Dotti and Brock is amusing. I like it when Dotti corrects Ruff's grammar and draws over his drawings of Brock and Ruff to give them a fat tummy and droopy nose - and of course the characters reactions to it after. :D
Haha, I remember that part! At first Brocktree was all, "LOL suck it up, Ruff!" until he saw his Dotti-ized portrait, then he had an absolute cow. I laughed and laughed... I always thought the friendship between Dotti and Brocktree was strange, he's such a serious character I wouldn't think he'd take to friendship with a girl like Dotti so easily, if at all.
The fights between Dotti and Bucko were pretty hilarious, too, especially when she got into the ring and just stood there insulting him. XD Also, the letter Dotti's mum writes to Blench, basically tearing Dotti apart, and all Dotti has to say about it is, "alas, the plight of a fatal beauty!" or something like that. ;D
I love when they have that eating contest! When she kept on eating and Bucko got tired!
The end of The Taggerug when Nimbalo and Boorab have a fibbing contest, especially when Trey the mousebabe joins in! :D

I always found this part hilarious. I laughed out loud reading it.
Also:
from
MattimeoMangiz: I will not stand here to be insulted by you, hedgepig
Ambrose: Then stand somewhere else and I'll insult you there, featherbag!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
from
DoomwyteAbbot Glisam: ...I don't suspect one of you Gonfelins for a moment.
Tenka: An' wot about us Guosim, eh?
Brother Torilis: Oh your tribe aren't to blame, neither are these Gonfelins. I suppose the emerald took it upon itself to strike Aluco down, then it just rolled off, for fun!
Can't remember the page or actual quote, but the scene in Triss when Log-a-Log dispatches Dibbuns to find a strawberry thief.
That scene in Redwall where Jess informs Friar Hugo of the loss of his dishcloth. I laughed so hard at that scene.
I liked Fuffle the mousebabe; he created a lot of hilarious scenes. Quotes from Martin the Warrior
Trefoil had an apple baked in honey. Each time she looked away, a piece of it went missing.
Ballaw drummed his footpaw on a small tambourine. "We will not be responsible for small infants an' nervous folk who faint durin' this death-defyin' performance!"
Fuffle leaped up and pulled Rowanoak's stubby tail. "Ho, gerron wivvit!"
"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Rowaoak tried to stand up and the pyramid collapsed.
Probably Rollo?s drinking songs. They are so ridiculous.
Martin the
Mossflower:
Quote"Goodness me, a stick. How helpful. We could take this place single-pawed with a stick. What a useful thing to send us."
Oh, and Tergen calling Brigadier Crumshaw Brigadier Wotwot! (
Rakkety Tam)
When Gonff was taken by the two vermin from Kotir. He's attempt to persuade them was awesome.
Roawnoak: Well, hurry up, my back's killing me!
Ballaw: Do not worry, madam. Your face has been killing me for years, let alone your back.
That scene in Bellmaker when Bowly Pintips is making the faces.
In Martin the Warrior, when the players are putting on their performance, with the drum. That part always makes me laugh.
I love the moment not too far into Martin the Warrior when Keyla and Rose are singing to each other and as the vermin guard approaches, Keyla sings a song about maladies that he invents on the spot, and the vermin take him seriously. They argue with each other about the names of the ailments and try to recreate the song. Even Keyla laughs aloud.
"I knew a fine big strong hedgehog long ago, he laughed at flurgy twinj. Poor creature, he never laughed again!"
The part in The Bellmaker when Meldrum the Magnificent is yelling insults at the butcherbird (I think that's his name) so he can fly faster. When the butcherbird gets up there, he tries killing Meldrum even though Meldrum was helping him out. I don't why I found it funny, but I did...

Yes, I like that part :D I think there's even a forum member called flurgy twinj, which is cool.
Vermin 1: From flurgy paws and grungy tummy, spirit keep us free. Wobby whiskers an' da de dah...
Vermin 2: Da de dah yerself, boulder bottom. They're not the right words!

You're right, there is someone called Flurgy Twinj. That's hilarious.
You've got me laughing at this scene all over again.
:D there are so many funny moments ;)
loved this one...
"Oh, corks. Do I have to climb up that great swayin' thing an' fold all those windy old bedsheets? Do I really, sir?"
Rawnblade pointed a stern paw to the topmast. "Up, Woodsorrel, up!"
-Mariel of Redwall (Rawnblade to Tarquin L. Woodsorrel :D)
Log a Log whipped out his rapier and pointed it at the stairs leading down to Cavern Hole. He yelled urgently, "A big rat with a bag of strawberries just ran down there! We can't 'ave that, can we? Get 'im!"
Whooping and roaring, the Dibbuns tore off in pursuit of the imaginary villain.
Oooh, that one part where the Dibbuns were on the wall and were throwing vegetables and stuff at the ones below to keep them off. (The picture for the chapter was great too.)
It's been a little while since I read any Redwall book (since I've been reading LotR and Crime And Punishment recently), so I honestly can't remember any funny moment in Redwall that well :-\
Oh, I forgot what book it was from (Mariel of Redwall, maybe), but there was a band of rats attacking Redwall and dibbuns (Grubb, Bagg, and Runn I think) and they stole knives from the kitchens. They were chopping the grappling hooks that rats were throwing over the side of the walls while the Redwallers were busy attacking the rats from the other side.
Child murderers. . . Or would it be "murderer children"?
Murderous children, I think. I'm pretty sure they didn't know the death and destruction that they were causing, I doubt they would have killed the rats if they knew.
Can you really call them murderers anyway? Murder is unlawful killing, and since those varmints were invading the abbey with the intent to kill then their deaths were well deserved.
Self defense, then.
I don't think that they would have been allowed to know that they were responsible for the deaths of quite a few creatures; would have scarred their minds, methinks.
Self-defending children it is. It would have traumatized them, knowing they had actually killed other creatures. They thought it was all a game.
warrior Dibbuns ;D
This one made me laugh too ;)...
"Figgs followed Rosie about, throwing her paws in the air and repeating over and over, "Lack a day, no tucker's left, lack a day!" -The Bellmaker :D
Raventail took a pace back, executing a scornful bow.
"Woah, Bigmagic fox be cleverer much much, scyoosee me!"
Abbess Lycian's teapot over the Abbey wall ::)

Love that whole chapter. The Pearls of Lutra, if you were wondering. I love any moments with Dibbuns, like DAB.
That was the one I was gonna say. Especially when in a later book when Arven is grown and Tansy reminises about him saying that.
From Mattimeo.
Basil shot out of the Abbot's study like a rocket, calling over his shoulder as he went, 'Last one in bed and fast asleep's a rotten egg. Yaaaah!"
Formole entered the study, rubbing his nose. "Oi jus' bin a-runned over boi a mad creatur'. Hurr."

Auugh! You liked that?! I couldn't stand Rosie or her little companion, it makes me sick just thinking anout it. :-X
Skor's blood song (in The Rogue Crew)
That was so funny
I alwaya loved the scene in Lord Brocktree where Dotti was taunting Bucko at the contests.

ALL of baby Rolos songs...
"Friar Hugo, old friend, brace yourself. I am the bearer of tragic news!"
Alarm spread across Hugo's pudgy features. "Tell me, Jess. What dreadful thing has happened?"
Jess spoke haltingly in a broken voice. "I fear that Cluny has tore up one of your oldest and most venerable dishrags. Alas, Redwall will never see it wipe another plate."
I *love* Jess.
That was a good part. ;D
Oi thinks eet is when Cluny chased Basil Stag Hare oill around, burr aye!
Oh, the time in Mossflower when Martin and Gonff are in thecell.
"Oh, goodness me. A stick. We're supposed to take this whole place single-pawed with a stick. What a useful thing to send us." Martin says. Or something like that. That part had me laughing all over again last night. ;D
I really liked the part in Triss when the Badger and Hare here a story about an old lady or something like that. The hare goes, "I miss me ol' family and the hut we live in." The Badger replies saying, "You don't live in a hut you live in a blinkin' mountain!" I think that is how it went.

Sarcasm: Added for taste like a pinch of salt. ;D
Yeah
I think they're all really good.
These books are some of the few that can make me laugh so hard it hurts. Not only when I was a child, but today, too.
rrrrr, I like your font.
@Banya: Thanks :)
Gonff was very funny.
In my opinion this was hilarious...
From Redwall:
Bull Sparra aimed a kick at Matthias, who dodged nimbly and started to dance and sing with a silly expression on his face.
The King stood with his head cocked to one side, amazed at the performance of this strange mouse.
Matthias pranced comically about, improvising a song as he went:
"Up higher than before,
I'm near the roof indeed,
The King gave me a collar,
His sister holds the lead."
Round and round he skipped, repeating the verse over and over.
It's funny to picture that. :D
How about the Riverbraggin' incident in Loamhedge? You know, where Horty decides it's good fun to insult Log-a-Log Briggy.
I have a vague idea of what your talking about but I haven't read Loamhedge in a while.

Oh, I loved that scene. It was probably the only really good part in Loamhedge.
One of my favorites was when Romsca tricked the monitor lizards into staying the forecastle cabin, because the ship's motion was the roughest there, so they'd get seasick, and they'd just stay in their bunkers, so she could have a bit of peace and quiet. Then Lask comes up on deck to complain about how cold and seasick he was, and Romsca's all "It's so calm out here, we're barely moving. Wait until we get to the really rough seas, there's be ice thick on the riggings, and the waves'll be high as mountains" and then he has a panic attack and rushes off to his cabin at top speed, and Romsca and her friend Bladeribb (the steersrat) can't stop laughing at the look on his face. ;D
I like the moment when the Mole says that the Eagle in Salamandastron is hard to understand.
