"Yo dawg…."

And then these assholes want to say they are patriotic Americans.

This show has some fantastic walk-on characters. Pete's mother was great, and now the stripper.

Don't mind me I just stopped by for shitty podcast references.

Prepare your sporks.

I especially liked that he Googled "picture OF dick" instead of just "dick pic."

Occasionally people break into acting later in life. Though he's not a huge star, Fred Melamed (aka "that's that guy who was amazing in that thing") is a good example. And there are people who move on from shitty rom-coms to critical success, like Matthew McConaughey.

The ironic thing is, Harvard is a really fucking good deal for most people, because they have need-blind admission and excellent financial aid. Harvard has so much fucking money in their endowment that they don't need your damn $60k/year tuition. So excellent students are well taken care of. Meanwhile, average Joes…

To me, America at its best. Both of them.

I remember that longbox! I got the album when it first came out, before I'd even heard the live VU version.

Agree about Loaded, but my problem with it was always that its best songs are done better elsewhere. I used to love the 1969 live album's version of "Sweet Jane" particularly.

Is that the double-tracked vocal version?

My favorite is the live version of Sweet Jane off the 1969/Live with Lou Reed album. It's the slow version that Cowboy Junkies famously covered, complete with the "heavenly wine and roses" bit—that NYC junkie soul.

God damn it, if we had to have a TV star for president, why couldn't it be this guy right here?

"Fuck that shit. PABST BLUE RIBBON!"
