You don't even have to look stuff up now. If you look up one thing, YouTube will look up things it thinks are similar for you WITHOUT YOU ASKING IT TO! The MLK thing is slightly to the right of the video right now for me if I want to see it.
Good philosophy and its why I don't complain about my 'Suggested for you' box being filled with strange videos of babies taking shits.
I've got to say that Louis has to be one of the greats like Carlin, because he's not only a comedian. He's a comedian, philosopher, writer, actor, and damn near a psychologist.
These companies which produce the products and flight owe us a debt. When you use any tool it becomes a part of you. All of these companies operate at the expense of society and the world in general. The tools which become fixtures fixate us the most. There is an implied mode of intellectual stagnation when all information is immediately available at all times. That's why people are so frivolous. Flight killed "travel", technology is killing thought.
My mom prayed to god after world war 2 cause she was alone and separated from her sister after surviving the war, and she thanked god because her sister got in contact with her. Yea, thank god, Your sister actually gives a shit about you.
This bit really makes me look at myself because I've been "angry phone guy."
I should know better because I remember when, if I was out and wanted to meet up with a friend, I had to dump quarters into a payphone and hope that my friend was home or that someone else wasn't on "the phone" at the time.
I love Louis CK, and the first time I heard this it really reminded me of Death of A Salesman. But the germ of this concept is based on a hedonistic outlook. Where as the progression of society conversely comes from a more humanistic sentiment. The paradox of what Louis is saying is that without discontentment with technology, human progression would stop. If people had been happy with the horse and cart then we wouldnt have the car. Capitalism sets the correct tempo for progress.
"capitilalism sets the correct tempo for progress" yeah....without a thought to any other living being on this earth.. progress in deed. There are oceans of trash that nobody even gives a second look to... please.
the problem with your post is you seem to equate "human progression" with technological progression. (i believe there are more important ways to measure human progress than by how fancy our gadgets are). then you throw the label of "capitalism" in there to make it even more confusing. you know many "communist" countries have been just as obsessed with technology. im not for or against im just saying.
correct tempo? How thfuck do you know? what precedent is there for any of this? all of this technology has emerged within the span of two or three generations. Exponentially the masses of people are having to adapt to an increasingly strange world of electronic prosthesis. try to appreciate the murky blackness of the universe now and then.
Everything louis says about Dane Cook is a jab in one way or another. He hates him as a comedian and he outright stole some of louis's material. Granted it was probably on dane cook fans more than dane cook himself.
No, that's just what you want him to say. Louis actually addressed the whole Dane Cook thing but for some reason it was taken off youtube. He said he had no problem with Dane and that people were blowing it out of proportion. The only thing remotely bad he said about Dane was at the end when the radio hosts forced him to say something bad which was "Fuck Dane Cook, he's a cunt" but even that was in a joking manner. He doesn't hate him as a comedian, person, or otherwise. If so, then prove it.
