Kids In The Hall Monday: Fine Ham Abounds

“He said the F-word. Seven pounds, four ounces, and now he says the F-word at the dinner table.”

The way Bruce keeps trying to eat the ham even while Mark has him by the wrist. The way they’re all drinking soda out of tall glasses with no ice for dinner. The screamer in the audience at 1:25. This is a longer one, but stay with me. Trust me. This is worth the investment of your time, and nobody expects you to get any work done the first hour you’re in the office. It’s understood that’s your settling-in time.

    My favo(u)rite part is when mom just leaves him lying there on the kitchen floor and then goes into the garage (?)

      Can I totally ride on your coat tails and adopt “Fine ham abounds”, too? I just LOVED this KITH clip for all the reasons pertaining to suburban Canadian adolescence (and teen angst in general).

      “Fine ham abounds” indeed!

    Whenever I think of Teens (as a notion, not as actual people), I’m thinking of Bruce McCulloch’s Teens. I can submit no finer praise.

      When I was a teenager, I viewed Bruce’s teenager-characters with dripping disdain. Now that I am, ahem, nowhere near teenaged, I view them much more fondly.

    I just saw Bruce do his new show, Young, Drunk, Punk, on the weekend and he was soooooo funny. Lots of awkward movements and musical accompaniment. And now I come here to more Bruce. Bruce is the balm I need to get me through winter.

    Key on a shoestring around Bob’s neck.
    Dad’s boxers + black socks + loafers look.
    Dad’s earlier suit + warm vest look.

    The visuals are just perfect!
