Ho ho ho mother [beep].
Rob here. You're watching Man vs. Pin, and this week's holiday inspired project was sent in
by Adelle, who suggested these toasted marshmallow shot glasses. She said they looked delicious
and that they would be wonderful to make since Christmas is right around the corner.
And which I respond, [beep] yeah they would. Question one, how much bull [beep] we dealing with here?
Answer: This picture is actually from a YouTube video. This check makes it on her stove
and [beep] nails it. Which brings me to question two. Can I do this?
I ran to the store and picked up some marshmallows, but they alcoholic in me told me that this alcohol vessel
if made into a shot glass would not be enough. So I got the jumbo marshmallows.
As soon as I got home I ran into my first problem after watching the video,
which was that she had an electric stove and I have a gas stove. But then I saw this other video
of this guy who did it on his gas stove, and he rocked it. So game on.
I took the regular-sized marshmallow first, stuck it on a fork like she did,
and slowly cooked it over the flame. Same [beep]. Just toasted it over a campfire slowly turning it,
blowing it out when it caught on fire. It's all right. It's kind of falling off the fork. I guess that it's time
that it's done. And the middle of the marshmallow is just supposed to pop out
and then it kind of sinks into itself and forms a cup. So that is not happening.
Well, you know, that's the first attempt. Now I honestly stood there for over an hour
trying my damnedest to get these to work, marshmallow after marshmallow.
I went through a ton of small ones, tried a whole bunch of the jumbo ones.
I applied various techniques, roasting them slow and low, others a bit quicker.
Some I just let catch on fire for a few seconds and then removed the fork.
And I'm not going to lie. Most ended up with holes. Others were just way too burnt and fell apart.
The jumbo ones, they didn't really work that well—way too much surface, way too much mallow.
Mallow? The smaller ones definitely worked out the best, and the technique that seemed to do the trick
was allowing them to catch on fire and then blowing them out after a couple seconds.
Too bags of marshmallows later and a predictably higher gas bill for next month,
I finally think I may have enough—enough for what?
All right. This is the Home Alone drinking game where every time one of these things happen,
you take a shot out of our awesome marshmallow shot glasses with our adult chocolate milk.
Every time somebody says Merry Christmas, any time Marv says the wet bandits,
every time somebody hits the statue in front of the McAllister house with the car.
Every time Buzz's tarantula appears onscreen. That alone will get you drunk.
- Oh just say Merry Christmas already. - I'm not an idiot.
- It's going to all happen really quickly all at once. - How about you take a shot every time
Kevin's an asshole? - [laughs] So far I'm really sober.
- Oh, it's the tarantula. All right. Here we go. - I mean, this is more like this.
- You ready? One, two, three. - And they don't really hold. [laughs]
It doesn't hold it at all, like, not even a little. I know how we have to drink the milk.
- It's like a cat. - Oh my God. That was disgusting. Yep.
- Every time old man Marley is shown holding a shovel. - Okay.
- Try it one more time. - This one, this one's where it's at.
- Oh yeah. Look at that [beep]. - It's holding it, holding it.
Nice.
Every time somebody hits the thing. [laughter]
- Oh, [beep] it. - Oh, [beep] it.
Every time they have pizza on the screen. Oh my God. I'm going to throw up.
I think that one was on the floor. Oh.
Oh, we take a shot every time Uncle Frick's an asshole.
Is that true?
That guy is an asshole.
- Oh, Bud's turning to— - Oh [beep].
- All right. Here we go. Look at that. - That's quality right there.
- Wow, all right. - Ah! It's leaking. It's leaking—
- Okay, all right. - heavily.
- Is this a joke?
- Mm, delicious. - Oh my.
I'm going through all your private stuff. You better come out and pound me.
[laughter]
- We're the wet bandits. - Hey!
That's going to spill everywhere. It's not going to work. [laughs] A fork.
[Beep] those marshmallows. Is there any Cherpumple left?
It's pretty disgusting when you eat a Cherpumple like that.
So gross. You all right?
He got hurt. You're going to have to take another shot.
I'm going to kill that kid.
