      Two years ago at the company white elephant another guy got a Ford hat and he goes "someone please steal this sht from me". Well I was at the time a proud owner of a 2003 Ford Focus with 300K+ miles on it so I wasn't going to let anyone diss Ford in my presence so I steal it.
      So the hat kind of drifted to the back of my hats I'd forgotten about it until two years later I see it and say imma wear this to work today.
      I get to work and the same co-worker is like omg you still have it and I'm halfway through a speech about how dare anyone diss Ford and my phone rings
      My wife was stranded in a Walmart parking lot in my Ford Focus broken down can you come rescue me.
      And I'm like Ho Lee Chit. Could have you possibly picked a worse moment to shame me in front of the guys.

      @Skinny Bob, I was 13 when it premiered and I certainly understood every joke and nuance. From the candy gram shark, to Gilda as the hyperactive Girl Scout, cheeseburgee, cheeseburgee, cheeseburgee, Pepsi, Pepsi, Steve Martin’s arrow thru the head and spontaneous happy feet, Barbwa Wawa, doggie downers and doggie uppers, skits were taken from the culture and media of the day, just like it still is. I don’t remember it ever being exclusively “for and written for….ADULTS”. My children enjoyed it too. Perhaps I misunderstood your point.

    This happened to me last night at my work white elephant. I was one of the last to pick a present and I unwrapped a head band designed to help you sleep with your mouth closed. I was so excited and everyone was laughing but earlier this week my dentist told me I was sleeping with my mouth open and it was drying my gums. So this joke gift was actually perfect for me--- and then someone STOLE IT.

      Yeah I totally get it too. Last year I did one with my friends and I happened to grab a really good gift for me - a waffle maker. It was a small cheap one, but I was only a few months into living in my first apartment all by myself and a waffle maker was an awesome thing to get. If you've ever been in a situation like that, you know that you're always going to be looking for useful kitchen tools and appliances. Then a friend who literally still lived with his parents at the time stole it because, in his words, "I'm going to move out eventually and might want something like this". Honestly definitely a dick move. He literally has used it only one time that I know of. Sure, a waffle maker probably sounds like a nice thing to have but if you don't need it right now and I do...why take it????

      He does have "Dune" next year. They should get both him and Timothée to host together.

    Wish they'd let it have a dramatic end instead of throwing in Santa but up to that point he sold it. Hard to believe this was his first time hosting.

    it's so funny because I had a white elephant gift exchange that ended in two of my friends not speaking to each other for two whole years and a fight. And i have had the perfect gift for me stolen during one of those where I just stared down the other person the rest of the night.

    Was about to rewatch this sketch then I saw Cecily 😭. No I can't!
    Loved Austin as a host even though I didn't know him well, haven't seen "Elvis", but he seems like such a kind hearted person (and perhaps that's why he connected with Cecil..😭😭).
    I really hope we can have him as a host again.
    I'mma turn into "Colin Jost on this Weekend update" mode now.

      @deniseb.7795 Рік тому +7

      Please, watch "Elvis." You unfortunately missed it on the big screen, but better than nothing! He's going to be nominated for the Academy Award. Wait until you see Austin's range of emotions, and how he "ages" from 20 to 40 (movie ends before Elvis dies).

    • @deniseb.7795
      @deniseb.7795 Рік тому +3

      That is, we don't see Austin as Elvis pass away. But the movie includes the people's reactions.

    If I never have to do a white elephant gift exchange again it will be too soon. The worst, scraggly ass gifts ended up in my lap. Meanwhile the darling set of bowls that I gave, were “stolen” from my assistant who was so upset, she threw an absolute hissy fit, and I had to buy her a new set.

    Great overall SNL episode! almost everyone was at their best, the cast and writing. Austin was the whole package. And I am pretty sure he is doing an impression of Brad pitt in the sketch ( ca. Thanksgiving in Friends episode) and doing it well.*
    I think I'll have to see the Elvis movie now. Thanks SNL. Please keep this standard in 2023.

    @MumNeesh22 Рік тому +4

    Yes! I love the message from Santa 😂 bc when Cecily stole his gift I was like "now why did she do that?!" 🤔😒 That's why I don't like that game, bc I don't like that someone can take something that you really like. I agree with Austin...it's very mean. Lol.
