lloyd muthafuckin braun
He has a slightly cleaned-up Harry Stean Stanton quality about him.

He played "Lloyd Braun" in two episodes of Seinfeld. He appeared in three Bigfoot-themed movies: Bigfoot: The Unforgettable Encounter (1994), Little Bigfoot (1997) and Abominable (2006).[5]

p good finale, although I am starting to feel like their foregrounding plot mechanics over stuff that is actually funny

saw a taxi in Austin today with the old "snack dick" logo on top and wondered if it was some wonderful meta-advertisement.

I finally watched this! And by this, I mean I watched every episode. Really miss the Peter Gregory character and he left a void in the show, although it opened the door for Gavin Belson's slow burn self-destruction. Maybe the ending of season two is a hint the same thing will happen to him at hooli?
I hope we see the cyborg again someday

the cruel joke on dinesh where gilfoyle convinced him the satanist girlfriend wanted to have sex with him reminded me of a really awkward prank some people played on me when i was a kid and it made me feel for the dude but also kind of made me feel better about life

oh yeah, and the peter gregory speech at the roman-themed/toga party! explaining the bar at the back with shorter lines and "thank you, florida" to flo rida
if this was a different time and place, that character would have been played by mike judge staple, stephen root, for usre
― Upright Mammal (mh), Monday, 10 August 2015 14:51 (nine years ago) link
haha i remember having this exact thought while wathcing that season. i gotta watch s1 again though, peter gregory was really one of the best characters on tv in sooooo long :/

the burger king sesame seed speculation was a master stroke of ridiculousness and that kind of financial chess-playing kind of evaporated after he was gone

My favourite thing about this show is the way Erlich pronounces "Aviato".

A guy who wrote a script for Silicon Valley apparently has aphantasia, the inability to see images in your mindhttps://www.facebook.com/notes/blake-ross/aphantasia-how-it-feels-to-be-blind-in-your-mind/10156834777480504/
for some reason that seems like a disability that would help, not hinder, when writing for Silicon Valley

I love how Ehrlich loses every conversation he has with Jian Yang, like somehow he always manages to come out of them worse off than before
― Οὖτις, Monday, 2 May 2016 21:31 (eight years ago) link
Jian Yang yelling at him while shoving whatever traditional Japanese thing that Erlich foisted him down the garbage disposal was great
Also him interrupting to say that yes, Japanese people are racist when Erlich was saying he was not racist was a perfect response to something that wasn't actually said
― μpright mammal (mh), Monday, 2 May 2016 21:35 (eight years ago) link
he's still an iffy character in his portrayal but they're getting better at capturing the stilted conversations between someone who speaks English as a second language and the American person they loathe

have you guys seen what some of the "appliance" data center things you can buy look like? in one way they make sense, in that they're supported by the vendor from the hardware/OS upwards to their product
on the other hand, it's a physical thingy that looks justifiable to buy for higher-ups when it's usually just a software thingy
also some of them have some lol branding
