Let’s be real: Brian Connolly has the face of a man who’s been annoyed by the world for exactly 50 years. And that’s a compliment. His deadpan delivery makes you think he’s 45. His crankiness makes you think he’s 65. The math doesn’t add up, and that’s the joke.
He once joked that his age is “a secret, but I’ll tell you it’s the same as the number of times I’ve been disappointed by a sandwich.” Classic. Old enough to have high sandwich standards. Young enough to keep ordering them.
