The Malex Minute

Formula; isn’t it great? (Sorry this episode is so short, but I’ve been under the weather recently. Things should be back to normal next week, but in the mean time, feel free to reflect on how formulaic the Malex Minute really is.)

Transcript

~~ Introduction

Malex: Hey, I’m Malex, and at this point, I introduce the characters.

Snufflefungus: I am the Snufflefungus, and I interject unwarranted cheerfulness.

Linus: I’m Linus, and I’m a squeezing, wrenching, clutching, covetous old sinner.

Snufflefungus: Aw, I want to be covetous too!

Linus: Shut up, Snuffy. You’re sinning.

Snufflefungus: Sorry…

Malex: (Chuckles.) After giving my head an exasperated shake, I introduce the topic which will loosely tie today’s episode together.

Linus: In a stunning display of overreaction, I severely criticize your choice of topic.

Snufflefungus: With one, sweeping, optimistic statement, I demonstrate a profound ignorance of the topic at hand!

Linus: I immediately deliver a scathing blow to Snufflefungus’s personal character.

Malex: Not wanting the situation to get out of hand, I chastise Linus and proceed to expand the topic.

Linus: I interrupt and question the legitimacy of Malex’s heritage!

Snufflefungus: Attack!

Malex: Now thoroughly caught in the heat of the moment, I release a blinding epithet regarding Linus’s ‘inferior’ status as a laptop!

Snufflefungus: Parry!

Linus: I curse you in a garbled tongue.

Snufflefungus: Touche!

Malex: Coming to my senses, I further expand the topic of the day.

Linus: I mutter something under my breath which reveals just how dysfunctional I truly am.

Snufflefungus: I cheerfully suggest something improbable!

Malex: Without warning, something completely random happens!

Linus: Oh, the horror.

Snufflefungus: Oh no! Whatever this random thing is, it could have far-reaching consequences!

Malex: No, wait. The danger has been narrowly avoided. And oh, look; we’re out of time. Thanks for listening, Ladies and Gentlemen, and we hope you’ll join us next week on the Malex Minute!

I'm going to bed.

I am not feeling great.

Specifically, I feel as though an elephant is tap-dancing on my left eyeball.

And you know what else? He's not very good at it.

So yeah, I'm going to bed.

ttyl!

yep, that was the formula for every Malex Minute!

should you really be posting the road to your success on the web?? what if somebody steals it? I may not have a nitrogen gun like GFG, but I could... wallop them/him/her/it with a big dictionary!

then I could wash off the blood and go back to spellchecking love letters.... just tell me if you need me

hope the elephant either gets lessons or stops completely....

I hope and pray that none may kill me,

Nor I kill any, with woundings grim,

But if ever any should think to kill me,

I pray Thee, God, let me kill him.

The best minute

This is surely the funniest minute yet. And it's the only one I've been privileged to witness the writing of. Or parts of it anyway.

Now thoroughly caught in the heat of the moment, I release a blinding epithet regarding Linus' "inferior" status as a laptop! The phrase, "blinding epithet" is too hysterical! I also love the heartwarming chuckle that Malex gives us in his 2nd line.

Great work, guys.
