I try to keep Lefsetz in mind when other experts are given suddenly platforms for comment in the wider world.

I just listened to most of the Diane Warren ep. For the most part I didn't think he came off as much worse than Maron? He was very pushy in trying to direct the conversation and there was a lot of over-talking, but I didn't get the impression that Diane was flustered by any of it. There was that one line where he says something about there being jealous, bitter people all over America who could move to L.A. and fuck someone who looks like a cast member on Friends but they don't. And I was like "there he is."

Segueing in from a discussion about how trying to help people out sometimes backfires. Bob got mobbed by some guy's followers on Myspace 10 years ago when he refused to promote this dude's act or something.
Diane: You know, for all the people who have contempt for people who have done well with their lives, go do well with your own life. Why would you have contempt for someone that's worked really hard?Bob: Because it's too hard to be successful. The analogy I always use...Diane: So do the work!Bob: But it's too hard for them. I remember, you know, they had the TV show friends. There's three guys, three girls.Diane: That's the second time today someone's brought up that TV show.Bob: What was the context of the first time?Diane: Someone with an [unintelligible] I was in earlier, and I've never even seen the show. Is that weird?Bob: Show started off good, you know? In England the shows end. Here, they run until no one's watching any more. BUT, anybody sitting at home gay, straight or otherwise: 6 people on the show, you could find someone you're interested in. And if you're not living in Los Angeles, where the show was filmed, you can sit there and say "hey, you know, if I moved to Los Angeles I could fuck one of those people." But the difference is: they don't move.

the first thing he says to her is "you're from Scotland" and then the first question is "what's it like growing up in Scotland"

at least he didn't say 'talk a little bit about growing up in scotland' i guess

holy shit...the whole quote is absurd, but I highlighted my favorite part
I think it would have been better off if Zuckerberg stayed in college. Hell, I think EVERYBODY should stay in college, to show you can complete something, that's what life is all about, completing stuff, kinda like playing HQ Trivia to go all the way. It's the essence of marriage. If your significant other is a drug addict, or is physically harming you, get out, that's cool. But even if they're having an affair, WHY DID THEY? It takes two to make a situation, it's best to dig deep and solve it. But no one wants to dig deep anymore.

bob, and only bob, and no one else, has thoughts on avicii.
― fact checking cuz, Saturday, 21 April 2018 13:39 (six years ago) link
also, it's oman's fault.
I'm thinking it's drugs, it's always drugs, especially when it comes out of the blue. Sure, Avicii spoke of health problems before, they caused him to retire from the road, but what was he doing in Oman anyway.
So it’s kinda like school shootings. Everyone laments the deceased’s passing, talks about what a wonderful person they were, how great their music was, and then it’s business as usual.Meanwhile, what kind of outlaw ties up with corporations, doing sponsorships? If it’s about image, your credibility is immediately shot.

You don't want to be second best, you don't want to be a booty call, you want to be PRIMARY, but even though you say no, that does not mean you still don't hurt, still don't desire, still don't fantasize.
