Friday Fact du Jour

Rachel Robinson has now been a widow for more years than she wasn't.

Ho Ho Ho!

I don't know if you're allowed to embed whole albums from YouTube but if there's a time and an album to try why not Marah's brilliant 2005 Christmas record? 🤗🕺🎄🎅🎸

Happy Birfday Mary Tyler Moore

Thanks for one of the Top 10, if not Top 5, all-time funniest scenes in sitcom history. #chucklestheclown 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Biz-a-Ness Bear Doing Business!

An Xmastime Prayer

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to blow minds at a dinner party by matter-of-factly mentioning that of course Bert & Ernie were named after characters from "It's a Wonderful Life", idiot.

Sgt. Xmas Taught the Band to Play

Not a lot of people know I was in the studio during the recording of The Beatles' revolutionary Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band; with the tapes from this historic lost session recently being unearthed you can hear your hero Xmastime in all his glory, helping lay down one of rock's all-time iconic tracks - enjoy!!! 🤗🤣🕺🎸

 

American Fools

“Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.” - Assata Shakur

The oppressors in this case are the uber-wealthy, for whom we spend every day desperately foisting more & more power and wealth onto in some fever dream that for some reason they'll thank us by giving us one of their many, many yachts. As long as we - the overwhelming majority - are completely obsessed with putting more & more of them in power, income disparity will only be greater & greater until we're officially a 3rd-world country. Awesome.

Creative Writing

This is like me in 5th grade, once a week in Mrs. McGuire's English class we'd hafta write a short story. I'd start out with a burst of creative fervor, but by paragraph six would tire and quickly wrap things up, wherever it was in the story, with "and then _______ woke up and it was all a dream."- XMASTIME

Comforting to find out all these many years later that I'm not alone out there:

Trump H. Christ

If you're doubting whether or not Trump's idiot followers believe he's the second coming of Christ, note how it literally never matters what he says, they will always twist & interpret it however they wish it to be just like they do with the one book they allow themselves to pretend to read. Trump's gone from "he tells it like it is!" to "oh you can't listen to what he SAYS, what he really means is (insert fucking gibberish here)."

Newest Brilliant Sketch Idea

"Marty, what the hell are you doing? We're late - you wanna nail what? To where? Marty, nobody reads, knock it off with that shit already and let's hit Oktoberfest."

Newest Brilliant Sketch Idea

"OMG that's a fantastic take of Twist & Shout John, you totally nailed why don't you put your shirt back on and let's have a listen so we - oooooooooh shit."

We Love ou Ronnie Barker

 Xmastime is a great time to remind ourselves how great Ronnie Barker was 🤗🤣🇬🇧

Dudley Sutton is terrific in this classic scene from the Christmas special with Ronnie Barker and Richard Beckinsale.

Questons. I Have Them.

If Frog wanted to be alone why would he go out into the world where literally everybody else is? Wouldn't Toad, if they're such best friends, understand if all Frog said was "I'm inside I want to be alone for awhile please come back later"? 🤔🤷‍♂️

Fuck Trump

 Comedy legend John Cleese is in hot water (eyeroll) for his "very bad joke" about Trump and Hitler:

I made a similar comment a week or so ago and if you think I was kidding then you're part of the fucking problem.

I know we're not supposed to compare Trump with Hitler but I've literally never seen a photo of Trump in such a warm manner as this with a child ever oh wait yeah unless you count all those times time he told people about wanting to fuck his own daughter, so. 🤔🤷‍♂️

Something I Learned In 2023:

Love's debut album is miles better than Forever Changes, even though for some reason it's always seemed to be against the law to not include Forever Changes on all "best of" classic rock album lists. 🤔🤷‍♂

Xmastime Observations

From what I’ve observed in nature this is how younger siblings spend much of their day trying to speak to an older sibling sitting 3 feet away.

Speaking of the Hallmark Channel

I really should dedicate 2024 to doing a version of Mystery Science Theater 3000 but with Hallmark Movies because my running commentary during them is incredible.

COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS CONTENT: we’re remembering a few of our favorite pieces of content over the past year of #eggfoowhat. Here’s one now!

Hallmark Christmas Movie I'd Like to See:

• 
  Businesswoman in NYC works 160 hrs/wk for her evil corporate overlords, has no life or family, hates Christmas.
• She's sent to Gumpdrop Falls, a tiny town obsessed with Christmas. Everyone there works at the local factory which makes Christmas toys.
• She is under orders to sell the factory to her evil corporate overlords so it can be turned into high-end condos.
• Once there, she personally sees up close how much the factory and its sense of family creates something almost magical in bringing toys to children all over the world.
• She immediately sells it to her evil corporate overlords.

In America

The problem with capitalism & the "American Dream" is that it’s a thousand times easier to convince someone they could wake up tomorrow a billionaire than it is to convince them they could wake up tomorrow broke.

An Xmastime Prayer

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to blow minds at a dinner party by matter-of-factly mentioning that of course the actual title of the song is "Run Rudolph Run" and not "Run Run Rudolph", idiot.

A Thought During My Whatever-Annual "Look At Me Going To Church With Some People So Nobody Yells At Me" Trip To Church

How come the solution to mass killings in America are thoughts & prayers but every time I step into a church they ask me for money? 🤔🤷‍♂️

Goodbye ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES

20 years ago tonight, the greatest show in the history of television aired its final episode 🥲. Here's the final scene, after Rodney's finally put the pieces together that he doesn't have the same father as Del Boy, who of course knows himself. What a brilliant final scene for the two of them. 😭😭😭😭

Dare to Dream, Young Xmastme, Dare to Dream

This guy has famously played the Wurlitzer at the Byrd Theater for like 200 years but throughout the entire movie that followed all I could think about was if the now-retired KISS showed up and decided to take it over and next's year quaint, cozy Christmas viewing of It's a Wonderful Life becomes a 3-hour shitsaganza of fireworks and flames and midgets dropping smoke bombs everywhere.

I HATE LIVING IN AMERICA!!!! 😡😡😡😡

New Snapchat Filter Who Dis?

I mean yeah I know I look ridiculous but let's be honest my skin has never looked better.

Happy Christmas & the Baffling Existence of Unnecessary Suffering

Today when us lucky ones are sitting around with our hot cocoa & Christmas goose is probably the best time to remind ourselves that every day, we choose to allow people to live in abject poverty. 😡😡😡😡

YOU ARE WARNED PEOPLE

Thoughts. I Have Them.

Before I turned 11 and realized wrestling was fake, Kevin von Erich was my favorite wrestler, probably cuz he was barefoot. But they couldn’t have made a whimsical Christmas version of this movie called THE SANTA CLAWS?  Camon movie people be better 😡😡😡😡

I Got News for You Amtrak…

…after what I’m about to do all up in there, trash is gonna be the least of your concerns.

Gary Gulman Alert!!!

Get thee over to HBO - I'm not calling that shit "Max" any more than I'm calling Twitter "X" - NOW and watch his latest brilliant special!! 🤗

Thank You, Father Ted

The greatest instance of calling bullshit on “thoughts and prayers” I’ve ever seen. No notes. 👏👏👏👏

SIDE NOTE: the priest who stands up and asks if they should pray is none other than Father Ted creator/writer Graham Linehan himself, who also created/wrote - among others - Father Ted, Black Books and The IT Crowd before seemingly throwing it all away 😬😬😬😬

The Ballad of Harry Donavan

Last night I stumbled into this YouTube video breaking down how much the NBA has changed over decades and the first game they showed was from January 7, 1950. On a whim I looked up every player and there's still one, ONE player still alive - has he seen this clip??? Does he even know it exists, does he know ANY footage of him from the 1950s exists? How do get this to him so he can watch it, how crazy would that be?!?!? 🤗 🏀

Joe Strummer Forever

21 tears later, Joe Strummer's death is probably still my most shocking famous death. It's a miracle that we have video of Mick Jones, just 1 month before Strummer's death, surprising him at a show and them playing one last classic together. We will always miss you, Joe! 😢🎸
