An early highlight of the terrific first season of “Louie” on FX. I clipped this scene so we can all watch it whenever, until Hulu breaks it anyway.

Hitler seems to be a recurring theme in Louis CK’s humor:

Louie namechecking the Fuhrer again when announcing season 2 of “Louie.”

A new webcomic about Hitler as an insufferable Williamsburg type.  [Not the Jews of W'burg, the hipsters.]

And of course all the Downfall videos. Is it safe to assume he would hate to be laughed at in this way? I hope so.

Whether you agree with the future of health care in the US or not, you have to agree that the woman shouting “Heil Hitler” at the Israeli man speaking highly of Israeli healthcare, taken at face value, is very, very wrong:

But it reminded me of a short film that hit the net a couple of years ago, which starts out as a harmless shill for a forgotten Judd Apatow comedy but quickly goes “off the rails” in a meticulously crafted “spontaneous” manner.

Compare the lady’s shirt to Craig Robinson’s shirt. Craig Robinson, I assume, wore the shirt to be ironic. What’s this lady’s story?

I would daresay the gallon of pickles in the trunk [not pictured] is as much of an economic challenge as my decade-old Japanese sedan, but this makes for a better sign, right?

If I ever see her at a light, I’m going to encourage her to find a union sign shop to make her a nicer sign.  Even the Westboro Baptist folks have prettier signs than this.

I feel this Best Buy pricing phenomenon is best described in the terms of an Infocom text game:

> LOOK BLUESHIRT
A thin trail of spittle glistens on his chin.

> LOOK MEMORY CARDS
They are all Sandisk SD memory cards. One is 2GB, one is 4GB, and one is 2GB Ultra High Speed. Which one is the most expensive?

Okay, this kind of wandered a bit, but you get the idea.

I feel duty-bound to describe,
as best I can through the generation gap,
how a Real Programmer wrote code.
I’ll call him Mel..

Made better if you imagine it being told by Sam Shepard as the cowboy narrator in “The Big Lebowski.”

The kids’ TV series “Arthur” is produced in Boston, so could you blame them for having a little team pride following the breaking of the curse?

Thumbs up, soldier.  [P.S. Check out that watch!]

There are probably more of these, this is just the first one I noticed… oh wait, here’s the motherlode!

I would never have clicked these if Intel hadn’t made sure to drop Christoper Guest’s name.  That said, “Everything Has Changed” is kind of a catchy little ditty, albeit not exactly “Lick my Love Pump.”
