Golden nugget from Stephen Fry's QI (obsessed much I hear you ask...):
Alan [Davies]: What are the beer goggles, and what is the Latin term?
Stephen [Fry]: Beer goggles?
Alan: Yeah.
Stephen: What are they?
Alan: When you've got the beer goggles on, it's when you really fancy a person who normally, you wouldn't fancy.
Jimmy [Carr]: Like you would refer to someone as a "seven pinter".
Phill [Jupitus]: Stephen doesn't have beer goggles, he has Madeira pince-nez. "Oh, you're a cracker. More Madeira? A small... sherry?"
Alan: A sherry monocle. "I heard you got the sherry monocle in."
Stephen: (pouting) You're all rotters and I hate you.
