Louie (Louis C.K.'s show on FX)

"I feel like such a heifer. I had two bowls of Special K, 3 pieces of turkey bacon, a handful of popcorn, 5 peanut butter M&M's..."

there is a clueless quote for every life occasion

I NOT A MEXICAN

you're right!

my sister and i do the "that was a stop sign" "i totally paused" exchange whenever i drive her any where.

i do "i not a mexican" all the time too but it's mostly to confirm that i am in fact not a mexican

I just found out about Pinocchio's like a month ago. It was pretty great at 2:00 am tbh.

in retrospect i always got that cinnabon feeling eating at pinocchio's (all-time worst boston pizza place in this regard: little steve's on boylston pre-renovation)

kinda want a cinnabon now

man, really glad i went with the high-fiber cereal this morning instead of the leftover spaghetti.

the shake is made with chocolate powder and lard

xp Yes! Where people do not value life

White Castle Chocolate Shake - Large (St Louis region) Calories: 950

i guess if you're going to a place that sells burgers by the sackful then you're already two steps from spooning crisco from the can so whatever

btw this has still got to be the winner

if i liked breakfast foods more i'm positive i would have tried this already in the interests of science

that has to be shopped

ok what is it?

what the shit is that? lard-os?

Hungry Man?

i think that's the hungry man microwave breakfast.

so you're in louisville and you get a large chocolate shake, a sack of fries and three cheeseburgers. Which sounds about right to me as a good ol' boy dinner, not insane or anything.
That's 3310 calories.

here's the article:

This blows my mind:

This cream- and cheese-infused pasta bowl is bloated with more saturated fat than a full-grown adult should eat in 4 days

yeah the disgustingness of the hungry-man is brought into full relief when you see what a pitiful little pile of nuked food it really is

while the white castle shake is probably the size of a pickle barrel at the grocery store

spoiled alerts...

Maybe my favorite episode. Dealing with such totally familiar frustrations in such fun ways. Having looked to buy a place not too long ago, it really hit home. I loved how the surreal stuff was handled. During that homeless person exchange sequence I even said "I hope this has nothing to do with anything" and it was perfect. And both realtors were great. That bait and switch move...so frustrating and happens every time. And the second realtor with the dreamy sequence in the garden. Amazing.

And the opening joke...so great how the joke was all about how he was telling this joke which as far as we can tell wasn't even a joke.

i am gutted that i'm missing this. i can't remember a comedy show i've cared about (and like, a lot) in forever.

also i tried on a pair of old dress slacks earlier and had a real louis moment. then i ate a hoagie.

The look on his face when he said he was going to buy THIS house was absolutely devastating as well.

AND THAT MOMENT is what I mean when i say it's a new york show
yes everyone wants this thing, this life just out of their reach but the point is that in nyc YOU CANNOT HAVE IT
you are not gonna have it.
i have done that exact thing, maybe on that same block, set that same goal knowing i will never ever get it
this show fucks with me sometimes

i feel that way in most aspects of life (and i've felt those things both in nyc and outside of it).

if he wants a $7000 house, he could go to detroit. he could even buy two $3500 houses.

xxpost

(i initially misunderstood that tweet as louis tweeting at bun and was powerloling)

i felt that way shopping for furniture the other day. the cheap couches were dingy and sad... the nice couches were all like $1000, even for love seats.

I love that it wasn't just "I want this" but that he's wrapped up this house as a way to start fresh (and outdo his ex for his girls' affections). So you've got the observational (and occasionally surreal) aspects of trying to find a new place to live that feeds into this desire for something that is right there but just out of reach (as was said just upthread there) and all of that because he's hoping that this physical change in his life will affect an emotional change that will allow him to clean the slate. I really think this show is something special.

I'm sure people in certain other cities can relate, too. Living in SF Bay Area has me relating to a lot in this show; the last two episodes especially, with the crazy random street-people incidents, and especially the house-hunting experience last night. When they were going through the old man's place, I was actually looking at it going through that same mental process I go through so often while apartment hunting: "This place is really ugly and it's set up really weird, but it's HUGE! I could get used to this!" Whoever scouted the location for that place is a genius.

That apartment was way too dumpy for his friend he was with to get that frustrated with him for not looking around. If the apartment wasn't so extremely terrible her frustration would make more sense. I guess it was just about making her out to be a whacky character in some way, no?

Actually yeah, because she ignored the point that there was a toilet in the kitchen.
