I would've gone with cutlery.

Minor quibble...they link to the yahoo page for the pitcher Brian Wilson and mention him as Love's cousin.

[Emdeeh]

They apparently don't know about Stephen Love either....

There has to be some kind of back story to this.  Just giving a stapler doesn't make any sense, obviously. 

[Rocky Raccoon]

Are we sure the present didn't actually come from this guy?

Yeah... a good swingline is actually a pretty good present   Once at work our stapler f***ed up, I left, locked up, drove to the office supply store and bought a good swingline, then took it back to work.  I probably never would have done that if I hadn't seen that movie, lol.

[Magic Transistor Radio]

Yes, has it been confirmed it was actually from Mike? He didn't specify which uncle.

[stack-o-tracks]

I really doubt Mike was the one who bought Kevin a stapler for Christmas. Anybody who knows anything about Mike would know he'd get his favorite nephew a transcendental meditation VHS or laser disc every year for Christmas before he'd stop by the Office Depot to pick up what some would consider an "office supply" for a gift.


Unless dude's really just a dullard whose favorite movie is "Office Space" and doesn't see the irony of getting a red Swingline as a present.


The whole damn commercial is in bad taste. There's kids who have parents who can't even afford something as expensive as a stapler and would be more than happy to receive something as insignificant as a lump of coal to heat their furnace for just a few warm minutes.

I think one thing that everybody is forgetting is that Mike's dad is named Milton.

Take some time to deliberate over that one.

Interesting! Another Beach Boy mystery has been solved!

Did Mike buy his nephew a hammer the year before?  A stapler, very practical!

Why are you bringing up this boring film? I knew that the most overrated films end up called "cults". Anyway, good gift, tho staple gun would be more useful for house.

Come on, it was Mike. It's so Mike. If anyone ever gave their nephew a stapler for Christmas, it was Mike Love.

How do you know the kind of gifts Mike gives?  The only gift I'm aware of from Mike were Maharishi cookies he shared with his band mates in 74

[Mr. Cohen]

Mike Love is a chronic regifter.

Documentation, please. What you'd like to believe is, uh, inadmissible.  

I'm amazed The Gruesome Twosome haven't chimed in.

...are you color-coordinating your wardrobe according to days of the week yet? Mike would appreciate that too, I bet. It would really help you harness all that energy. Especially with a bright yellow Sunday outfit. Think of the fact-checking you could do properly energized!

Tastes differ. Haven't seen "Godfather", any episode. Now "Titanic", "Forrest Gump", "Shawshank Redemption", "Psycho", "Spaceballs", "Requiem for a Dream", "Fight Club - those are awful lot boring.
