GMMore 1934: Are These Inventions From Canada Or Mexico?

(rooster crowing) (lion roaring) (bass booming) – Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” We’re gonna match, what? – An invention. – To the, who? – The, well, either Mexico or Canada. – Who came up with stuff? Let’s learn together. – But first, let’s tell a 10-word story. Harold! – Cut. – His. – Wiener. – On. – (laughs) Uh, Paper. – But. – It’s. – Alright. – Bleeding. (both laughing) Harold cut his wiener on paper, but it’s alright bleeding. – (laughs) It’s alright bleeding. (both laughing) Did you not know you were the last word? – I did, that’s why I said bleeding. – Okay, got it. But it’s alright bleeding. This isn’t bleeding that’s gonna cause a problem. – No, no, it’s slash. alright, slash, bleeding. You have a choice to make. It’s like… – Oh, it’s choose your own adventure. – Yeah, it’s choose your own adventure. – So, okay, just so you understand your choices. – 10-word story. – Harold cut his Wiener on paper and it’s either alright or it’s bleeding, and you… (both laughing) You make the choice. – What’s the weirdest thing? – ‘Cause if it’s bleeding, it’s not alright. – What’s the weirdest thing you ever cut your wiener on? – Hmm, I don’t think I’ve ever cut my wiener. (both laughing) – I’m trying to remember when I’ve cut my wiener. I’m sure I have. – When I’ve cut my wiener. I can safely say I haven’t. I think I’ve made it 43 years without cutting my wiener. – I mean, you know- – Well, actually, one of the first things that happened to me was I got my wiener cut. (laughs) – There you go. – But that wasn’t me. – So, you’re circumcised? – I’m a circumcised man. – Yeah. Yeah. If I had to go back, I don’t know if I would circumcise my kids. – Oh, I wouldn’t do it, no. – [Stevie] Let’s not get into this. (laughs) – I mean, to each his own, no judgment. – [Stevie] I was gonna say, one time I cut my butt by getting the… You know how on the top of the, hmm, how do you describe this? (laughs) – Toilet? – [Stevie] Racks that you can put in showers that go over the shower head, that like hang from the shower. – Oh yeah, the best. – I had a razor and I was going to shave my legs and somehow the razor fell and cut my butt on the way down. (laughs) – What kind of razor do you have? Like a straight razor? (laughs) – [Stevie] No. – Like a normal razor? – [Stevie] Yeah. – I mean, if that part of it goes against your butt, then it’s might give it a little, and if it goes sideways. – Oh, the whole thing fell? – [Stevie] Yeah. – Oh got it. I thought just the razor fell and it was like, tink. – [Stevie] The whole razor fell and sliced. – Well, I’m sorry about that, Stevie. Are you okay? – Yeah, luckily my wiener is fine. (Rhett laughing) – I’m never cut, I don’t think I’ve, I mean, I’ve put on my pants really fast sometimes. And I have this fear that it’s gonna abrase my wiener, but it’s never really happened. – Especially when you put on your paper pants. (laughs) – I mean, a paper cut on a wiener, that’s bad news. – First of all, what are you doing if you get a paper cut on your wiener? Like reading, reading? First of all, who reads the paper, reading the paper naked? – On the toilet. – People who have cut their wieners, paper cut their wieners, what are they doing there? – They were reading the paper. – Fell asleep while reading, naked. You have to be naked in every scenario. – And there has to be like like a really emphatic motion with the paper. I think what you’re doing is you’re reading the paper on the toilet, and then you decide to put the paper down. – To wipe. – To wipe or something. And then at that point. – Shh, but the edge of a paper like a newspaper is difficult to cut. – Do they even exist anymore? – But what if you’re loading the printer, naked? (laughs) – Yeah, we’ve all been there. (crew laughing) – Loading the printer – [Stevie] Ah, naked printing. (Rhett laughing) – You know what it was? I know what it was. Somebody, you know how those people do this thing where they’ll like, back in the ’90s it was a thing to like Xerox your butt at the office? And so you got your pants down. And of course you’re doing this after hours. So you Xerox your butt and then you’re like, “Oh shoot, there’s no paper.” And you leave your pants down, you reach (laughs) to grab the paper. And some slips. Someone has cut their wiener doing this exact thing that we’re talking about. – Oh, I know, yeah, yeah. That’s it. – That was it, we figured it out. That’s how you cut your wiener. – Alright. – Paper cut your wiener. – See you tomorrow. We have a game to play. (Rhett laughing) Alright, give us an invention. – [Stevie] I’m gonna give you a scenario and you’re gonna tell me if this person cut their wiener or not. (Rhett laughing) – Yeah. Okay. – So is this person circumcised or not? Okay. Alright. Is that what we’re doing? – [Stevie] No, I’m gonna give you an invention. – Write that down, though. That’s a good More, and definitely not a main episode, but is this person, we just look at their face and guess if they’re circumcised or not. (laughs) – [Stevie] Did This Person Cut Their Wiener Game. I’m gonna give you an invention and you’re gonna tell me if it was invented in Canada or Mexico. The Wonderbra. – What’s the Wonderbra? Which one is that? – It’s the one that pushes them together and up. – Oh really? – Yeah. – Pushes them together. – [Stevie] Do you feel confident in that? I don’t know. I can’t confirm that that’s the case. – The Wonderbra? – [Stevie] Yeah. – Yeah, pushes them up and together. – Ah, I’m saying Mexico, because I watched the Mexican soap operas and there’s always an emphasis on cleavage. – Yeah, well, and I will say that- – You don’t have to understand the language. – I have occasionally, like occasionally I will turn it to Telemundo or Univision and watch the weather. – Yeah, all around. They’re not afraid of booba-looba-loobies in Mexico. – Canada, you gotta wrap those puppies up. – You can’t let them out. They’ll freeze off. – [Stevie] It was invented in Canada. – What? – [Stevie] By Louise Poiv, Poirier. – Oh, a French man. Yeah, okay. Got it. – [Stevie] Who, in 1963, was working for a Montreal-based lingerie company. – Yeah, it was the French influence on Canada. That’s where the boobies came from. – [Stevie] The egg carton. – The egg carton. – Mexico, I’m gonna stick with that. – So transporting eggs in a safe manner. I think, I don’t have any rationale for this. I don’t wanna turn anybody in Mexico or Canada against me by just mouth vomiting nonsense like I normally do. I feel like I’m in a precarious situation. – I don’t have anything to go on. – I love Mexico, I love Canada. I love the Mexican people. I love the Canadian people. – But we’re both going with Mexico. – For no good reason, yeah. – [Stevie] Canada. (laughs) This is this actually later than I would have thought. 1911, newspaper editor, Joseph Coyle of Smithers, British Columbia invented the egg carton to solve a dispute between a local farmer and a hotel owner over the farmer’s eggs often being delivered broken. – I wonder where they did before the carton. – [Stevie] Probably hay in a basket. – Hay in a basket. That’s not as good. – [Stevie] Or you just stood right under the chicken and… – I think they transported them in removed foreskins. – Well, you know what I think they did? – You didn’t even listen to my answer. You were waiting for me to stop talking about foreskins so you could tell me your answer. – I think they put the Wonderbra that the French man invented, they would just put it right there. (clucks) – One egg per lady. – One egg at a time. (Rhett laughing) – I need a dozen ladies to bring me a dozen eggs. That’s I mean, that would be, that’s some misogynistic stuff right there. If you need 12 ladies to bring you 12 eggs. – I just made a misogynistic joke. – You should just go right on back to the 17th century. – I’m not misogynist, but boy that joke I just made was. (Rhett laughing) (crew laughing) That’s what’s funny, is that I would never say something misogynist, but because I did, that’s what made it funny. – It wasn’t even a joke. It was just conjecture. – That’s some misogynistic stuff, man. – [Stevie] Scorpion antivenom. – Mexico! Freakin’ Mexico. They got scorpions down there. – How could it be Canada? – They don’t have scorpions in Canada. – Yeah, but they have the antivenom researchers in Canada. This can’t be right, but I’m going with it because, hold on the last two… It has to be Mexico. – It’s Mexico. – But I’m gonna go with Canada. – [Stevie] Have you guys encountered a scorpion in real? – Yes. – Yes. In death Valley. Not in the most recent trip. – [Stevie] Okay, but not like in or around your homes. – No, not in California. Well, I was in California with him. Not in around my house, no. You? – [Stevie] Yeah one, and in Texas there’s, I mean, obviously there’s scorpions. – You know what borders Texas? – Mexico. – Also California, Mexico. – [Stevie] Yeah, it’s Mexico. – Ha! – [Stevie] Anascorp, the first scorpion antivenom to be approved by the FDA was developed in Mexico. – Good for them. – I wonder how often that gets used. – [Stevie] Also scorpions love to hide in dark places but you can check your home for scorpions using a black light. They’ll glow a light blue-green color under the ultraviolet light. – Kind of freaky, yeah. – I bet you somebody’s gotten bitten on the wiener by a scorpion. (crew laughing) And what do you think they were doing? That’s probably happened way more than paper cuts on wieners. – Yeah, which happens more? – Scorpion bites on penises, I would think happen. I’d say there’s 12 a year. Like, I’m not kidding. There’s that many. Scorpions man, yeah. 33-year-old man suffered a severe sting on his penis from a scorpion of the species “bitispenis.” (laughs) (crew laughing) – What? (laughs) I was, I was like, “Okay.” – Tityus trinitatus, which is translated loosely as bite his penis. (laughs) – Bite his penis. – [Unison] Penis wound. – By scorpion sting. – Oh, see, there’s a Pub Med article about it. I’m telling you, this happens all the time. But I bet you, paper cut. Do penis paper cut. See if there’s a Pub Med about that. – Yeah. – I’m interested now. – We like using the Mythical search engine, the Mythical computer to do our weird searches. Come on. – Davin wouldn’t do it. – Penis paper cut. – [Davin] It’s on Reddit. – Oh, Reddit first thing, yeah. The first entry is, “How do I stop thinking about getting a paper cut on my penis?” (laughs) Because I’m sorry, I’m sorry that we introduced this scenario into your world. – [Stevie] We’re going to have to put a trigger warning at the top of this More, specifically for that man. – Okay. – [Stevie] Do not watch this video. – I’m reading so many things that I don’t want to say out loud. – [Stevie] Instant replays. – Instant replays? Wow, okay, I’m sticking with Mexico on this. – Is this a football thing or a hockey thing? – I believe. Oh, you know what? There’s really good arguments for both because in hockey you can’t- – There are no instant replays in hockey. – Not true. In hockey, you can’t see the puck unless you watched hockey a whole lot. So they need to show it to the normies again. And in soccer, no one ever scores. So if it happens, you want to see it a bunch. So there’s really good reasons for both of these. I’m going with Mexico though. I basically have guessed Mexico for everything and this, I mean. I thought I was in the lead, how am I losing? – I think this is a hockey situation. – I got one of those right. – [Stevie] It’s Canada. – Yes! – [Stevie] 1955 CBC producer, George Retzlaff introduced the world to the first end-game sports replays. – George Retzlaff. – Retzlaff? – [Stevie] Good old George. – I mean, it’s seems like- – [Stevie] Hockey, if not my- – It seems like such an obvious idea. You’re watching sports. I want to see that again. Well, you can’t. You got to watch closely. Hey, only a few days left if you want to get the Mythical Snackiverse Lunchbox & Thermos Collectible Set.

Like, I don’t know, maybe 10 years ago. I don’t know how many years ago it was. And it would be like, there was a little stream on it like it was a comet. So people watching, like me, who don’t understand hockey and can’t follow the puck, could see it on TV. And the hockey people hated it because they were like, “We can see the puck! We don’t need this dude from North Carolina to be able to see it.” They lost me when they took it away. They lost me. I would have been a Hurricanes fan, but instead I’m just a guy who can’t see the puck. – Everyone would come back from hockey games, back when hockey made its way to North Carolina, and they would say, “Well, it’s a lot of fun. You’d really be surprised.” – Have you been there in person? It’s better in person. – It’s different in person, like it’s so- – And they’ll fight, and it’s real. – It’s everything is so much better in person with hockey. I mean, you don’t have to understand any of it. – Yeah, it’s just ice. – Yeah, it’s cold. – They have sticks. – You get bundled up, you go in there. – [Stevie] The pager. – [Unison] The pager. – Oh, Mexico. (chuckles) – Now, drugs are everywhere. Let me just preface this. – Oh, what you about to say? – Drugs are everywhere. I mean, you think about the, I bet there’s cartels in Mexico just like in Canada. – I haven’t heard of the Canadian cartels. – Is there cartels in Canada? There’s got to be. – I mean, there might be. – [Stevie] Again, I said, the pager. – When I think pager, I think doctors and drugs. – Uh-huh, yep, I’m going with Mexico. – [Stevie] I think dads. – Dads? There’s a lot of dads in Mexico. – [Stevie] Like the belt situation, and like… – And when you think pepper you think, old men. – [Stevie] Yeah, but I really like pepper as well. Old men and me is what. – Do you think pagers will make a comeback? – Pagers. – Because I’ve been thinking, I spent so much time on my phone. What if I just said, “You know what? I’m only available by pager now.” That’d be like a huge power move. – Yeah. That’s kinda of like telling somebody, “I paper cut my wiener.” It’s not gonna change anything anybody does. They’re just gonna feel sorry for you. You got a pager? Oh, I feel sorry for ya. – No, then they’ll use, they’ll say, “Well, okay, what’s your pager number I guess?” If it’s like my wife. You know, (laughs) it’s like she’ll probably wanna know my pager number. (all laughing) I’ll be like, “Baby, I’m only available by pager.” – There was a time… – You had a pager. – I had two pagers. I was a double pager man. Slinging from the hip with the two pagers ’cause that was an engineer. And I don’t know why I had two. It didn’t last long. – You had two pagers? – I had two pages. It was like a couple of weeks and I think it was ’cause I was getting a new pager (crew laughing) but I didn’t want to get rid of my old pager. – Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. – Yeah, so when people would page me, I would have to call them back and give them my new pager number. – So I think at some point everyone has two pagers. If you have to switch. – I think that’s what we just learned. – Why did you have to switch? Did your pager number get out to the wrong people? – (laughs) It was a new, it had a nicer screen, it was a nicer pager. – You couldn’t transfer the number? – It was a nicer pager, man. – [Stevie] Did you put both? Did you put pagers on your belt? – I did, yeah. (Rhett laughing) I had my shirt tucked in and I had my belt and I had my pagers. – We had to tuck our shirts in for work as engineers. It was like, it wouldn’t even cross our minds to walk in in there without our shirts tucked in. – You don’t want a shirt tail to get sucked in to like a pipe in your case, or a conveyor belt in my case. – Hey, but we wore jeans on Friday. (crew laughing) – I wore jeans every day because I was in a manufacturing environment. – You got to wear jeans every day? I wore them on Friday so hard. – You know the thing I don’t like about dress pants is that- – The pleats. – If you, I don’t mean to be telling my wiener so much. – Ever cut your wiener on a pleat? (laughs) If you iron it hard enough. – If you have a little… – Wiener? (all laughing) You just got to get it out, man. (laughs) – If you go to the bathroom and then you have a little dribble. Like you don’t give it a good shake. – Dress pants. – That’s gonna come through on some dress pants wicked. That’s not gonna come through on some nice thick jeans. – [Stevie] Did you say wicked? – Wicked, yeah. You can get a wicked pee spot coming through on those dress pants. Especially if they’re khaki. – I organized my pants. – You want some jeans if you’re gonna not. You better shake it, shake it, shake it if you’re wearing- – This past weekend, and there was a pair of khakis in there. I was like… And I was like, “What are these?” (laughs) You know, I was like- – Khakis. – What? Like when, when? – You had khakis in your closet? – What occasion would I wear these? Khakis, what? But then I was like, “Maybe I should keep them,” so I did. – I think, I think khakis should die. – No, I think they should come back with a pager. – You know what? I’m gonna eat my words one day. I’m gonna be wearing khakis. – Oh yeah, you’ll be wearing them. – I will be wearing khakis. It’ll be ironic for some people and I’ll be an old guy. – What is the question? (crew laughing) – [Stevie] Do we even… Oh no, I didn’t ask another one. – Pagers, where were pagers invented? – [Stevie] Yeah, we already answered that one. – Where were they invented? – [Stevie] This is the last one. – Hold on, where were pagers invented? – [Stevie] Oh, Canada. – Oh, dang it. – I didn’t vote. – [Stevie] Oh, okay, it was just marked as you got it wrong on my scoreboard, but I never told you got it wrong. I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to… – Okay, so we’re tied going into the final question. – [Stevie] It was 1949 by Alfred J. Gross. – Is where khakis were invented? – Stevie No, the pager. – I like the word, khaki. I like to look at the word, khaki. – [Stevie] Okay, this is the final one. – Khaki. – [Stevie] Chewing gum. – Chewing, Mexico. – No, this is Canada. – [Stevie] Mexico. – Yes! – Why? – [Stevie] The Mayans extracted it from trees. – Rubber tree, yes! – [Stevie] And used it, yep. (upbeat music) – I think I knew that at one point. I thought about a lot of things today. (crew laughing) – [Link] Only a few days left to get the Mythical Snackiverse Lunchbox & Thermos Set.
