Squeaky Bun Time

By Seth Freilich | Posted Under Miscellaneous | Comments (20)

There’s a video embedded at the end of this post, for no other reason than to keep up the artifice that this post is a typical Pajiba post. But really, I’m only writing this to introduce a new phrase that’s ready to sweep the nation. Squeaky Bun Time.

I won’t bore you with late night origins of Squeaky Bun Time. But here’s what it is. Y’all know that time in the night when you and your friends are drinking and having a good time and that drunken hunger hits? And it doesn’t really matter so much what you eat, just so long as you eat something. You’re at barbecue so you decide to attack the leftovers, eating a cold hot dog, eating a veggie burger not even realizing it’s not a real burger, etc. Well that, folks, is Squeaky Bun Time. Tell your friends.

And here’s that video I promised. It’s a skit from this weekend’s SNL (with a guest host who, when he’s not all clean-shaven like, looks an awful lot like our own Dan Carlson). In the light of day, it’s not all that funny. But when we were watching it live during Squeaky Bun Time, we found it mildly amusing, particularly the “son” at the end. Oh making fun of the Eye-talians, will you ever get old? (“No-a, I won’t!”)

"fast and bi-curious" was better.

Is Seth still drunk?

hey! i broke the cherry! and used the word "bi-curious", surely i'll get a tee for THAT!

I personally like to call that "Lime Chips and Salsa Time."

And gp is right. Also, let's get less Andy Samberg and more Seth Meyers.

Wow, I learn so much here. That phrase has a completely different meaning in my house.

I didn't really find anything funny with SNL this weekend, and that made me really sad, since I love Seth Rogen so much. Almost every sketch was ridiculously long and pointless. The "phone voice" sketch and the Grease sketch were almost embarrassing for everyone involved.

Though if I had been watching it during Squeaky Bun Time, I might have thought differently. I was watching it during Angry Baby Time.

Mad TV was canceled, we have no alternative. But on the plus side, Mad TV was cancelled.

Madonna and Angelina Jolie on Weekend Update were mildly amusing. But I nearly died of boredom and embarrassment during the "Grease" skit. I couldn't even figure out what was supposed to be funny about it. Though I did laugh, and I'm ashamed to admit it, at the "I'm the Boss" video; it was kinda funny, then dumb, and then dumb-funny.

There are plenty of alternatives, but they suck just as much. The Whitest Kids U'Know comes to mind.

I laughed at the Muppets skit. It was Samberg's Swedish Chef calming Whig's Beaker that got me.
Did anyone else shriek "I can't believe he's so skinny!" every time Rogen appeared?
Neither did I. And it totally didn't annoy the Mr. when it happened.

I always thought that Squeaky Bun Time was the name of the reaction my gluteus maximus have when The Pink Hulk is walking behind me.

Bill Hader has always been my favorite. He's one of the few cast members that always elevates the material their in and yet he's still under-rated. Did anyone see that episode with The Rock when Bill was playing the co-host of a Sports show who was not so secretly an alien? He was genius in it.

I agree, he's one of the best cast members.

Also, I call Squeaky Bun Time the "what can I combine with peanut butter that would be delicious?" time. The answer is usually "everything."

That's mostly when I'm high, though.

Snath, where's Pookie to make the obligatory "Smokum Peace Pipe" Joke?
Must I summon him?
TYYYYYY-LEEEEEEER PEEEEEEEERRRRRRR-YYYYYYY
Fat Asses!

No, he would make a joke about smoking a hookah in India. Because that's what he always does.

Squeaky bun time....I think I will use this in another way.

"Squeaky bun time" and "The squeaky wheel gets the grease!" have combined in my head to become the dirtiest thing ever. Ah, brain, what image will you dredge from my subconscious to horrify me with next?

As for Seth Rogan on SNL, the whole, "Is your mama a bear?" thing was mildly amusing. As was the Muppet skit. And that was about it. The writers of the show either need to smoke a lot less weed because clearly they have caused themselves massive amounts of brain damage, a la Amy Winehouse. Because only a brain damaged person would thing the Grease skit was funny.

I usually give SNL maybe 15 seconds in passing, and I always keep on passing. I'm an old fuck, I have too little time left on earth to spend it waiting an hour for SNL to make me laugh once.
