@SKT

Norm was amazing

Edit: Jerry gets a lot of flack for being a clean comic, but he understands great comedy better than anybody else

George was actually the one modeled off LD.

Pretty sure I saw this on some bonus footage off one of the dvd season releases but they were reminiscing over a read where George had a ridiculous moment (even for Castanza standards) and the cast started picking apart the scene, questioning, “who would ever react in such a stupid manner” and Larry being at the reading got overly defensive, stating, “what do you mean??? this a perfectly reasonable reaction to the situation”. It was later pulled out of LD that he was in fact writing from personal experiences in regards to George

@flannel-slut this is funny cause they allude to this on both Seinfeld and the Larry David show.

[chrisjohnnick]

Pearl Jam sucks.

[SKT]

I reread what I wrote before and I should have been more clear and said the show was a mirror of Larry and Jerry making up funny shit. I was trying to say that the show’s success and humor was equal parts Jerry and LD. And watching Curb Your Enthusiasm it becomes obvious real quick that LD is George.

@northsouthdenimguy Norm was so funny….one of the best episodes for sure

They certainly do now Matt's left.

[SKT]

@chrisjohnnick I actually agree with this….

And to get back to the @Bridger initial unpopular opinion, these should never be worn with anything, especially IH (looking at you Jerry Seinfeld)

Not excusing it, but and there are countless instances of celebrities especially in music being with girls. It is incredibly disturbing and I really don’t understand it. They even write songs celebrating it like “You’re Sixteen,” “She’s Only Seventeen,” “Jailbait,” etc. I think more than the biology my disconnect is the psychology. What the fuck would I talk about to a 16 year old? Well I can tell you because we have an 18 year old sitter. I talk to her about college because she’ll be there next year. I can think of so little common ground with your average teenager.

I like PJ ok but don’t listen to them much. Seen some good live shows. I appreciate their ethic. When grunge came out I hated them and preferred pretty much everyone else, especially the Melvins, Nirvana, Soundgarden… oh yeah I hated STP too. I don’t hate much these days, I just skip it

[flannel slut]

@chrisjohnnick no love for Pearl Jam but no hate either. Foo Fighters however used to drive me nuts

[mclaincausey]

Ah man yeah I guess I spoke too soon. Foo Fighters do get under my skin a bit.

[Tago Mago]

The Carpenters. Their existence offends me

[SKT]

@Tago-Mago yeah but I think Karen was regarded as a pretty legit drummer

[Tago Mago]

@SKT true, but being a virtuoso does not automatically mean great music. The guys in polyphia may be great on their instruments but their stuff is unlistenable wankery to me

[chrisjohnnick]

Foo Fighters are one of those bands where I'm not going to buy an album, not going to spend money on tickets, and not gonna really think of them ever. But I wouldn't turn down a free ticket to a show. Saw them for free at the Ryman in Nashville on Halloween a few years back.

[chrisjohnnick]

Also, U2 sucks.

[SKT]

I can’t go there on U2 I’ve got a lot of core memories attached to them in the 80’s. Personally I would say they really dropped off after Joshua Tree

[mclaincausey]

Yeah. That’s me. I can’t even stand them now but loved that record. And to a lesser extend Achtung Baby. Everything since is supremely annoying to me

Fooies suck more without Josh
