This is an excerpt from the Saturday May 23 live stream. Uncle Meat let us know what he learned that day, specifically about people who play with Star Wars action figures. I’m sure you’ll find it as enlightening as I did.
Incidentally, this is the picture that really drove him nuts, the one of Baby Yoda eating the leaf. He describes these pictures as “creepy, like Weekend at Bernie’s“.
These pamphlets showed up at our work mysteriously one morning. Somebody else tossed them in the trash as soon as they realized who provided them!
We already know from Tom Cruise that only a Scientologist can help when there’s a car accident. Perhaps only a Scientologist can prevent Covid-19?
Uncle Meat likes to (teasingly) call me “Bum Face” during my live streams. However the fact is I am now a Shit Face. Look at this mask that Mrs. LeBrain bought for me. Typical, eh? I can’t get no respect!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! Life has been tougher than usual these days and you deserve a big huge pat on the back. Or, to use a popular cliche, celebrate wine o’clock.
Today we’ll be visiting my 95 year old grandmother! Distantly, through a window, but she understands. I thought for this Mother’s Day, I’d share a favourite story about her.
My grandma always gave us good gifts for birthdays and Christmas, but because she didn’t really know what kids were into, started giving us money instead. We were just as happy with that, but I’ll never forget something thing she wrote in my Christmas card one year.
“Dear Michael, Merry Christmas. Use this gift to buy yourself a CD record. Love Grammie.”
A CD record! The phrase still makes me smile today.
Guest Sunday Chuckle: The WTF Edition
Thussy here again with another Sunday Chuckle. Being a veteran contributor for the WTF column, this one came naturally.
Are these fart panties? Do they freshen the scent or muffle the sound? If the top right of the picture didn’t exist I would just think ok these are maybe some sort of padded biking shorts. Admittedly they looks like they would make long distance bike riding more comfortable. Is the top right of it just to show that they are breathable because it just looks like a fart?
This just looks messed. Is this some sort of medieval torture device that just eventually rips your nail off? The two side arms look like they would rip right through the nail making whatever problem these are supposed to solve so much worse.
$8 for what mouldy bread or cheese or maybe fruitcake? I swear this is some joke item someone trys to sell on eBay. I can just see the write-up now. “I found this wrapped up in the back of my fridge. Don’t remember what it is, eat at your own risk or make your own penicillin from it.”
Russian nesting knives? I’m an amateur cook and have a good set of knives and the one thing I know is you need a strong comfortable knife that are well balanced for weight. These look like they fulfill none of those categories.
Regular contributor Thussy found this and sent it to me.
Hey, I know weed is legal in Canada now, but slow down people! Jesus murphy!
Don’t be a Stan Smith. Don’t do crack!
Contributor Thussy sent this in. Back in January he snapped this shot from CP24. I’m not sure if this is a Sunday Chuckle or more of a WTF!
Is live streaming in 2020 the new movie night? The new concert? The new drinks with friends?
My longtime friend Robert Daniels (I believe we met 35 years ago this year) has begun live streaming public domain movies on Wednesday nights at 7:00 pm. His live stream on March 25 featured two films, including A Case of Spring Fever (1940).
Now it might be the isolation, or lack of anything better going on, but I thought A Case of Spring Fever was hilarious! A man is fed up fixing his broken couch, and wishes he never had to see another spring again. His wish is granted by “Coily”, an animated spring who makes all the rest of the springs in the world vanish! The man can’t use a telephone or drive his car without all the springs that go into it. Each time the man encounters a device that requires springs, Coily appears to taunt him!
“Noooo springs!” ridicules Coily. “Heh heh heh!”
Eventually the man takes it all back and wishes for the world’s springs to be restored. Then, with his golf buddies, he just won’t shut up about springs! On and on he goes, about everything that relies on springs.
Maybe I am easily entertained, but I thought Coily and his friend were absolutely hilarious! Tune in to Rob’s live stream on Wednesday nights, 7:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, for more public domain hilarity with commentary!
March 27 2020 — Laura Geddes from 105.3 Virgin Radio asked for listeners to submit messages to our friends and family listening. So I submitted a clip — little did I know Laura was going to dedicate a Justin Bieber song to me as well! First time for everything.
Incidentally that’s the first time my voice has been on Virgin, now making it three local stations that have been LeBraaaained!
Thanks Laura!
Sorry folks! We live in extraordinary times, and I have not had any Sunday Chuckles to share with you this week. Instead, to create a virtual social gathering spot, I have been live streaming on Facebook. On Friday night I went an hour and 20 minutes, and it was a blast! I was taking questions and they were coming fast and furious. Participants included your Heavy Metal Overlord, radio host Robert Daniels, and Blaze Bayley expert, Mr. Harrison Kopp.
As this current crisis continues, I will be doing more live streaming. Feel free to join me.
