Growing up does not mean one needs to grow old.

Cleese, he’s grown old. He’s the exact wanker he mocked 50y ago on BBC.

Idle? He’s grown up. He has the awareness and cogency to recognize that he should be the target of appropriate mockery.

And he laughs at himself.

I forget who wrote, “Life’s a laugh and death’s the joke, it’s true. You’ll see it’s all a show. Keep’em laughing as you go. Just remember that the last laugh is on you,” but Idle really gets it. ;)
