Terine of beef!

Well this one started when my mom and I were watching an episode of Roseanne and it was the one where her sister Jackie, had joined this community theatre group. She only had one line and she was playing a very menial role of a peasant servant with a wooden leg. You may be able to find the clip on youtube. Anyhoo, this wooden leg just looked like an umberella shoved up her skirt and when she delivered her line ("Terine of beef") it seemed that she made every possible mistake there was to make, for example she was looking at the audience and doing a funny accent and the leg just looked hilarious! My mom was howling with laughter and said, "Thats the funniest thing I've ever seen!" She then said she needed to pop down the shop for something and while she was down there she fell over and hurt her ankle badly. Later that night she was limping around on it and all I could think to say was "Terine of beef!"
