a running gag in Groo the Wanderer: in every issue someone would say of Groo, "[you're] slow of mind." A few pages (or perhaps an entire chapter) later, Groo would say, "what did she mean, 'slow of mind'?"
Groo, by Sergio Aragones -- the guy who used to be responsible for all the doodles in the margins of Mad Magazine -- was a spoof on Conan the Barbarian. It was one of the few comics I followed back in the 80s; which might explain my sense of humour when it comes to the fantasy genre.
Not so funny now, eh?

I think the gag showed up at some point already in the current 12-part series Groo: Friends and Foes. On the other hand, I don't recall any new 'mendicant' jokes or 'cheese dip' references--yet!
