spanish inquisition 

1) A very clever sketch performed by the Monty Python boys consisting of a group of blundering cardinals dressed in silly red hats who laugh diabolically and torture unsuspecting english persons with dish-drying racks. Amongst their weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms...
2) What nobody expects.

Me: damn! what the hell is this??? the Spanish inquisition???

The Inquisition 

Your bitch-ass Parents.

Maybe you're in the middle of making your bed, cleaning your room or some other dumb shit that your parents constantly force down your throat, and you're feeling a bit bored. What's the logical solution? PROCRASTINATE. So, you're browsing memes and all around feeling happy, when out of the blue, The Inquisition knocks on your door. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Hide your beloved procrastination under something, they'll hear it. (even if they're going deaf. Seriously, how can someone be deaf and hear quiet shit like that?) Also applies to your Search History.
Last night I was minding my own business browsing reddit and The Inquisition came and fuckin' stole my laptop!

Fuck The Inquisition.

The Inquisition should mind their own business, I know I do.

Spanish Inquisition 

Ruthless inquisitors who use such
torture as poking with soft cushions and forcible seating in a comfy chair.
*I* don't know - Mr Wentworth just told me to come in here and say that there was trouble at the mill, that's all - I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition.

The Spanish inquisition 

Arbitrary Inquisition 

A very eloquent way to ask a bi-partisan question. A question that when answered will not benefit either party. Often asked by a "moderator" between two separate parties, acting as a mutual individual.
Moderator: "I hate to impose an arbitrary inquisition but you two are getting f*cking no where."
