Duck Pit

From Apprentice to Darth Holden:

When The Revolution comes, we won't, in a very 60's manner, put the "mofos up against the wall!" It's just too strident, too cliche.

No, we're going to throw them into the Duck Pit. Where they will be nibbled to death by hungry ducks. This fate is amusing to the observer, and humiliating and painful for those tossed in.

First six Duck Pit visitors: The Felonious Five and "Judge" Starr.

Then media whores will take their turns. Gerth. Steno Sue. Blitzer. Hannity. O'Reilly. Russert. Tweety. All the rest.

The inspiration for the Duck Pit:

LONDO: This, this, this is like being nibbled to death by . . . what are those Earth creatures called? Feathers. Long bills. Webbed feet. Go quack.

VIR: Cats.

LONDO: Cats. I'm being nibbled to death by cats.

I don't think I'll be able to find the original reference since it's so old.
