/mom
I was watching his show over at my parents' house last summer and tried to draw some of his facial expressions - he looks kind of like a friendly muppet - on the Gimp-type program I was goofing around with on my mom's iPad. I flashed it at my dad during a commercial break and he got a look on my face like he'd just caught me doodling MRS. TIM PAWLENTY in pink shimmer gel pen on a black notebook page
― A B C, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 19:29 (thirteen years ago) link
haha. he is so expressiony!
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 19:30 (thirteen years ago) link
expressive, i guess, is the real word.
Del that picture - MUCH BETTER!

He should keep that up.

kind of like if the belush was sad when Mary Hansen died

i think part of the attraction is cuz he reminds me a little of my other half, who has a goatee and is similarly "ehhh guys i dunno" about the state of the world.

said other half always cracks up when he sees louis in the opening credits, shuffling down the street and munching diffidently on a slice.
― don't believe the HYP (get bent), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 21:35 (thirteen years ago) link
i always imagine that he looks a little sick and gassy after the slice but i think it's my imagination and uh life experience imposing that narrative

nah yr otm, he inhales it

He has the best wry grin. He's cutest when he's laughing.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 23:30 (thirteen years ago) link
worth repeating cuz I always think about this when I see the opening:
i know that pizza place, it's at the west 4th street stop and it is TERRIBLE pizza... perfect indicator of how little he respects himself and a great nod to a new york state of mind where you're like "fuck i gotta eat something... oh man, this is expensive... oh man this is terrible... oh i can't even finish this... fuck it, gotta go... when am i gonna figure out how to feed myself like a grown up instead of feeding myself shit... oh fuck, i'm so late" etc ad infinitum― predeep natsvitika (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, January 11, 2011

yes, especially as a prelude to drinking

lol eating shitty food when yr hungry... ny state of mind
― just sayin, Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:17 (thirteen years ago) link
typical new yorkers, thinking they invented everything..even laziness
― skinny arbuckle (latebloomer), Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:21 (thirteen years ago) link
louis is ABOUT a nyc state of mind; it is SET in nyc and generally revolves around situations that can only take place in nyc; that's the show, not me being provincial
― brooklyn's complicated relationship with bacon (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:24 (thirteen years ago) link
what does that even mean
― remy bean, Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:27 (thirteen years ago) link
"we do things a little different here"
new yorkers may not have invented late night pizza but i feel certain they invented the "free topping", i.e. creating a thick layer of cheap parmesan, chili flakes and oregano by shaking the jars for a good five minutes
― 40% chill and 100% negative (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:28 (thirteen years ago) link
this is a dumb argument but come on. yes it's a show about new york to some degree but shoving disgusting food in your face and hating yourself as you do it is a louis c.k. running theme and resonates universally.
― horseshoe, Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:28 (thirteen years ago) link
forks dude i'm just bustin' yer balls. surely that's part of the nyc state of mind!

truly one of his great bits
and perhaps the peak of loathing-over-food humor
― death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:31 (thirteen years ago) link
of course it resonates universally, but the closer you are to its home base the more it's gonna click with you. I'm sure alaskans felt the DEEP VIBES of Northern Exposure in ways you and I will never understand.

gummy bears are my cinnabuns. when i was like 17 i inadvertently ate a two pound bag during an episode of M*A*S*H, forgot that i'd eaten it, and went looking in the kitchen for more. i was very upset to learn i'd stolen them from myeslf.

i'm buying a cinnabon at the airport...that i arrived at

yeah he has really tapped into something with his self-loathing eating humor
The cinnabun thing is amazing. I FEEL YOU LOUIS I REALLY DO.

haha you can always tell when a comedian has changed the game in certain respects because they recast awful things you have done to yourself for years as "something comedian x would do a bit on"

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

they are never nice, and the pizza is never not amazingly good. did you try the sicilian? it is maybe my favorite pizza ever.
― remy bean, Thursday, 7 July 2011 14:43 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah - it was the sicilian. I'd have to get it again to really make up my mind because I only had a couple bites but it did seem pretty good and I can be sort of picky about pizza.
