My Brother, My Brother And Me: MBMBaM 409: Limp Bizkit Skank Boy

June 4, 2018 12:06 PM

It's the summertime month known as June, and the age-old annual question is on everyone's lips: Where are they doing the Olympics this year? We got ourselves ready for all the great jumping and throwing-sports, but dang, if they aren't trying to keep this one a secret. Suggested talking points: Olympics Hype, Derek Dart, Apple's Music Toy, Proverb Punch-up, How to Buy Underwear, Church Sandwiches

So, what are our thoughts on the Proverb Punch-Up?

Me, I can't complain! After all, there are thirty worms.

can’t believe they never heard “the early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese”

I'm not sure how I feel about Proverb Punch-Up but I think it has promise. I know they often don't actually answer questions, but for some reason I felt much more unsatisfied that they didn't settle on anything like a good final version of the punched-up proverb. Like it was going good places and then they just rushed on to the next one, and now I don't know what version I should be using!

I'd never heard that before!

One thing with the underwear question... Was the question asker actually covering up for an accident? At first I thought no, but the brothers seemed to think so.

I think I prefer Church Hacks.
