I've seen that bit, though epic or no it's still an elaborate dick joke. Albeit inspired.

iirc the basis of most humor is dick jokes

while I think too often at least in season 1 it does rely on broad, low-brow humor for the jokes
Ffs can you not ruin this thread/show like you did the game of thrones one

Like, why be an asshole?
Lol it seems like you don't get this show!

When Jack Barker and Gavin Belson meet up at the airport, beyond the joke of them taking separate private jets to go to the same places on the same days, do you think the implication is that Hooli has hired Jack Barker to take over as CEO, like he did at Pied Piper, or is that a leap?
― Immediate Follower (NA), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 14:43 (ten years ago)
That's what I assumed
Also it wasn't until this episode that I realized it was Ned ryerson from Groundhog Day
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 14:51 (ten years ago)
Bing!

do you think the implication is that Hooli has hired Jack Barker to take over as CEO, like he did at Pied Piper,
this was totally my first thought, but I was a lil uncertain after it wasn't addressed directly

Gavin has a few lines in American Psycho the film. He's one of Bateman's colleagues at work.

I wasn't a huge fan of the show Big Love, but his performance in it was fantastic.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 18:38 (ten years ago)
Yeah I was just thinking last night Gavin might be the most underrated character on this show.
― Immediate Follower (NA), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 19:27 (ten years ago)
I loved "I invited you to my wedding..." "WHY!?" in the last episode
He's one of Bateman's colleagues at work.
oh shit that's right! the closeted gay one!

does anyone know the name of that skull picture in the incubator? it looks very familiar but i never see a clear shot of it...

it's to the left of Jared in this photo. i think it's blurred out or something in this shot.

Love this show more and more with every ep

Feel like the look of the founders and the story of this startup must have been a specific inspiration for this show:

my one beef with the verisimilitude of Silicon Valley is that there are no overweight coders to be found which seems odd

i'm facebook friends with a childhood friend who worked at facebook for a few years and there were no fat people in any of the outdoor gatherings he took pictures of
― μpright mammal (mh), Thursday, 16 June 2016 16:10 (ten years ago)
they were probably inside

it makes one wonder
if you search for facebook or google employee gathering pictures or meetings it's... not a very body type diverse group

Is this the only show that can get away with a line of dialogue like gilfoil saying "let's go brownie"
― calstars, Monday, 20 June 2016 00:52 (ten years ago)
the clickfarm footage at the end is soul-crushing brilliance
I am not sure made me laugh more, Gavin motioning to signal the opossum should not be brought in, or the promo booth giving away subway coupons
― μpright mammal (mh), Monday, 20 June 2016 04:17 (ten years ago)
yeah, the clickfarm was an amazing shot
is the only solution to this current problem that they need to hire bernice?
― a simba man (Will M.), Monday, 20 June 2016 15:30 (ten years ago)
that was my immediate reaction
really they need to hire an application designer and someone who can spin the technical accomplishments of their platform into products people want to use
pipey explaining "you're only six clicks away!" absolutely killed me
