Both those the support and critique serve a greater purpose. If those that created the technologies were not encouraged, it could stifle innovation. If those technologies were not critiqued it could stifle refinement.
Where do you go when no one pays attention? Where do you go when when you don't have a sense of how to improve?
In the greater sense, balance is served here. It's the social manifestation of the political model of checks and balances.
Every time I'm about to complain about some piece of technology that isn't performing quite the way I think it should, I always stop myself and think about how my parents grew up. And THEIR parents. And so on, and so on. Then I realize that I am far, far too spoiled for my own good.
I disagree that people are somehow different today. There has always been stupid people who are so narrow-minded that they cannot see what the world is around them. Are we spoiled today? Yes, technology is a great thing and the march of science will continue as long as religion gets the hell out of the way. We should appreciate these things every day as life today is just awesome. Whenever I get on an airplane, a train, or a large boat, I am always fascinated. Maybe cause I am an engineer.
He obviously wasn't talking about satellite phones. Besides, those are expensive and clunky.
The fact he doesn't know how cell phones work doesn't really invalidate his point.
However, someone else was right in that every generation thinks the younger generation is stupid - his parents called his generation stupid, he's calling ours stupid, we'll call our children's generation stupid.
CK fucking nails it. People are spoiled rotten pricks anymore. Some people need to be taken down a notch. My fucking generation is worthless know it all brats.
You are right with yoru facts but shouting down any argument in the video based on that fact is wrong since the very creation of a cell phone is an amazing piece of technology whether or not it goes to space (A signal COULD end up going to space depending on the call or service being used BTW just not usually) so just because Louis CK doesn't know how a cell phone works doesn't make his point invalid
I realize that you probably know that already, just in case other people read the argument wrong
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you're the dumbass. cell phone signals don't go to space. that's why it's a cell phone, not a sat phone. cellular means the land is divided into cells covered by towers. don't be a faggot know-it-all.
its not a satellite phone cus theres no such thing as a sattelite phone not because it doesnt go to space. lol u calling me a know it all? says the one who has to correct me.....
Whoa, hot rod. Satellite phones have been around for YEARS, man. Granted, you don't get one free with your two-year commitment, tho, so I guess that's why you STILL don't know about them.
(You gotta have money)
Do you really think you can get a cell signal EVERYWHERE? Of course they have satellite phones. It's just that YOU don't.
Yeah, but I'm only 22 and I totally know that this generation is lazy and useless and pathetic LOL and I'm part of the problem, but its how things are now, I guess.
Dude. OK you're right, 22 is about the dead-center of the obnoxious, useless bunch that seem to irritate the entire world. HOWEVER- if you know you're 'part of the problem' what do you attribute that to and have you made some decision to rise above being, uh, a weiner? I work with a 22 year old and he hates almost everyone his own age, but he acts exactly like them! Ppl text each other saying 'oo I don't want to TALK to him' and I'm thinking WTF, really? It's THAT bad, you can't even TALK?
lol, I'm not sure why my previous comment got a thumbs down - its perfectly honest. I attribute this generation's laziness to an overdependence on technology. Everything seems to be remote or voice activated, automated in some way. Its a pretty direct correlation with the rapidly rising rates of obesity. People just aren't doing things for themselves anymore, and a lazy body leads to a lazy mind. So yeah, I'm part of the problem, by default, for living as part of that lazy existence.
This guy is totally wrong, people will be unhappy no matter what. Times weren't any better when you had a rotary phone, he just likes to feel superior because he can remember it. He even says that he would complain when people have 0s in their number, that's no different to complaining when it takes extra long to send a message. It's perfectly reasonable for our expectations to advance as our technology advances, it's the reason that we continue to grow.
maaaannnn i have never heard it put so well, drives me crazy when people r like, urrr i gotta do laundry, oh really its that hard huh, grab ur clothes walk somewhere put em in a machine with whatever else u want and press a flippin button, thank god they never had to ACTUALLY wash the clothes.
Finally someone with a BRAIN. And what's with the, thinking you know about Bush? Clinton gave our jobs to China. China put our companies out of business. My stocks went to crap and Bush got blamed. And now President Hussien is in power. What a bunch of bull. The only thing that will fix this, is reverse what the Dems. have done. Stop buying Foreign and buy only American. Re-open OUR factories and ask God to forgive us of our Baby murdering ways and we might just survive the "Change' promised.

when more than 50% of voters re elected Bush it was difficult for non-americans to grasp their rationality. Now the world economy is paying for that legacy. It is therefore refreshing to non-Americans to be reminded Americans are more than that.

what he's saying would be true if the high speed internet is like a free service given, but if they are paying for something that does not work, then it's fair to demand refund. They're making money out of that amazing new thing, so yes you can appreciate it and understand if it breaks down, but it's your right to demand a refund because you're paying extra for something amazing that broke down.
The same applies if you're getting an expensive phone b/c of its high memory then u see it slow.

My kind of complaint is that I cannot even write in my own space without being constantly censored in my free country in American and in 21st century only because my promoter wants to show us his balls that he is able to silence &blcok a woman like me & promote my plagiarists & rats and snakes who steal from me! that is D america we live in today & since my cross is your cross we should work together 2 change it! Freedom is responsiblity & for flying we need our wings that cannot B clipped
This is very funny! We all must be grateful! But just because we were primitive we should not claim our freedom and change! But more important than technology is having compassion and coscience to appreciate change and remain human not becoming cutthroat only because we can cheat and steal from others as fast as they create things! Those who complain 4 little things have not evolved to have larger purpose to unite to be a free world with Universal Laws in health and excellence! That takes work
I entered the debate as I value the freedom of speach. I can do what I want. Besides, all you see is humor within this man as you're not taking the things he says seriously 'caus you obviously belive that he makes this up JUST to make you laugh. Some people have, surely laughed at this, but still disagrees with what's he's saying by debating. And so am I. If it fucks you up caus you're an antisocial bastard, then go and cut your wrist in a corner, you seem to have a expertise in where and how.
Aslong as everything develops and new things, ideas and techniques gets invented you can always get used to it, use your imagination over how cool, comfortable or less annoying the thing or whatever could be. Therefore you'll complain. Everyone does it about something, and it's natrual and necessary, otherwise we wouldn't invent them and keep on improving them.
Problems we have today are retarded comparing how they had it 50 years ago?
fuckers, can't you see that the general world we are living in is much more modern than about maybe 40 or 50 years ago.. That doesn't mean that people doesn't work their asses up today, but seriosly don't bitch about your hard life today, cause back then they didn't have the technologi in traffick, sciense and so on.
Hold up here ... this isn't about "adults" vs "teenagers" vs "tweens" or whatever ... this is about how blind we have become as a WHOLE SOCIETY to just how amazing we have it in today's world. It's about not taking things for granted, and it's totally right on the money, as far as I'm concerned. Louis C.K. is a comic genius, just enjoy and laugh along ... it's good for you!

you might be spoiled but im not. i work my ass off for everything i got since i was 14 an legally able to get a job. i dont know who the fuck he is to say some one else is 'spoiled' or 'taking x of granted'. if your so damn spoiled then give up your computer, cell phone, car, electricity, etc and go back to walking, working by candle/day light, planting your own food drawing water from a river, etc
Whoa dude, you need to cool your jets just a little bit here, ok? If you reread my post, you'll see that I haven't called anybody "spoiled" ... that was *your* reading, not mine. I don't see Louis expressing any desire to "give up computers, cell phones ... etc." In fact, he talks about how crappy old rotary phones were, and how much better we have it today. He's just commenting on how rarely we stop to appreciate those improvements in our daily lives for what they are ... IMPROVEMENTS!
Oh, and, I've worked my ass off for everything I have as well. So have most of the people I know. C'mon, you think you're some sort of martyr? That doesn't really have anything to do with it, so just try and mellow out a bit, give your blood pressure a rest, and stop taking it so *personally*, sheesh!
did i say i was some sort of 'martyr'. (and it does have something to do with it)
im just tired of people like you and that other dude as well as this 'comedian' saying how ppl 'taking things for granted' (which is what you said and not *my* reading). i say speak for yourselfs cause if some one works there ass off for there shit instead of getting it handed to them from here parents or winning it some how then they can 'take it for granted' all they want, they've earned the right to.
fuck you bitch. you might be spoiled but im not. i work my ass off for everything i got since i was 14 an legally able to get a job. i dont know who the fuck you or he is to say some one else is 'spoiled' or 'taking x of granted'. if your so damn spoiled then give up your computer, cell phone, car, electricity, etc and go back to walking, working by candle light, planting your own food drawing water from a river, etc
Yeah and you're stinking little whore women are all fucking dykes, because you stupid little faggots with all your bad gangsta shit can't satisfy them. Now wear your wife beater and your retarded shaved head to that, jack off.
this is the best video ever and louis ck is the funniest comic to me. i heard that this bit is like 40 minutes now if you could find it could you please post it
Can we not bicker about comedic dynamics and just enjoy the damn video? Jesus christ. It's like everytime I watch a video I always look down and see the comments left by some idiots having a ridiculous internet argument. Just shut your pie hole and enjoy the comedy already.
its really rare when i actually laugh out loud watching youtube clips rather then just finding it funny and typing "lol" in the comments. this guy actualy makes me laugh, he is a comic genius
Louis used to be in the writing staff for Late Night, he and Conan are friends. I think he's playing along and letting him do his thing, not dismissing him.
Not really. You really have no idea about comedic dynamics. See, Louis is basically doing stand up in the clip. A lot of comedians do that on talk shows (see Jim Gaffigan, for instance). It's not a standard interview for Conan, which is why it seems a maybe a bit awkward. He's just trying to be another member of the audience, and maybe set up a premise or two. I don't see why you have to turn it into a damn competition.
I can really relate to this guy! The wonders of technology continue to make things easier. But the best part of it is this: It gives people new things to bitch about.
I love this. I played it for my older kids.

Awesome, but if this is the first time Louis has said this, I'm afraid Grand Theft Auto IV beat him to it...

Aslong as everything develops and new things, ideas and techniques gets invented you can always get used to it, use your imagination over how cool, comfortable or less annoying the thing or whatever could be. Therefore you'll complain. Everyone does it about something, and it's natrual and necessary, otherwise we wouldn't invent them and keep on improving them.
Problems we have today are retarded comparing how they had it 50 years ago?
How about the people 100 years ago?

If this video upsets you, you're one of the people he's talking about and thus part of the problem.

haha, so nice!
fuckers, can't you see that the general world we are living in is much more modern than about maybe 40 or 50 years ago.. That doesn't mean that people doesn't work their asses up today, but seriosly don't bitch about your hard life today, cause back then they didn't have the technologi in traffick, sciense and so on.
You're a nice comic Louis C.K!

Hold up here ... this isn't about "adults" vs "teenagers" vs "tweens" or whatever ... this is about how blind we have become as a WHOLE SOCIETY to just how amazing we have it in today's world. It's about not taking things for granted, and it's totally right on the money, as far as I'm concerned. Louis C.K. is a comic genius, just enjoy and laugh along ... it's good for you!

you might be spoiled but im not. i work my ass off for everything i got since i was 14 an legally able to get a job. i dont know who the fuck he is to say some one else is 'spoiled' or 'taking x of granted'. if your so damn spoiled then give up your computer, cell phone, car, electricity, etc and go back to walking, working by candle/day light, planting your own food drawing water from a river, etc
dont want to do that......didnt think so

Whoa dude, you need to cool your jets just a little bit here, ok? If you reread my post, you'll see that I haven't called anybody "spoiled" ... that was *your* reading, not mine. I don't see Louis expressing any desire to "give up computers, cell phones ... etc." In fact, he talks about how crappy old rotary phones were, and how much better we have it today. He's just commenting on how rarely we stop to appreciate those improvements in our daily lives for what they are ... IMPROVEMENTS!

Oh, and, I've worked my ass off for everything I have as well. So have most of the people I know. C'mon, you think you're some sort of martyr? That doesn't really have anything to do with it, so just try and mellow out a bit, give your blood pressure a rest, and stop taking it so *personally*, sheesh!
ourson66 2 years ago
did i say i was some sort of 'martyr'. (and it does have something to do with it)
im just tired of people like you and that other dude as well as this 'comedian' saying how ppl 'taking things for granted' (which is what you said and not *my* reading). i say speak for yourselfs cause if some one works there ass off for there shit instead of getting it handed to them from here parents or winning it some how then they can 'take it for granted' all they want, they've earned the right to.

this is the best video ever and louis ck is the funniest comic to me. i heard that this bit is like 40 minutes now if you could find it could you please post it
jones9536 2 years ago
Can we not bicker about comedic dynamics and just enjoy the damn video? Jesus christ. It's like everytime I watch a video I always look down and see the comments left by some idiots having a ridiculous internet argument. Just shut your pie hole and enjoy the comedy already.
Also, Louis CK is brilliant.

From most of his responses, looks like Conan feels out-witted and out-of-the-spotlight. Responses are rather dimissive. Louis is comedic genius
CuriousLilFella 2 years ago
Louis used to be in the writing staff for Late Night, he and Conan are friends. I think he's playing along and letting him do his thing, not dismissing him.
TheRealDarkGob 2 years ago 10
yup
bossudude420 2 years ago
Not really. You really have no idea about comedic dynamics. See, Louis is basically doing stand up in the clip. A lot of comedians do that on talk shows (see Jim Gaffigan, for instance). It's not a standard interview for Conan, which is why it seems a maybe a bit awkward. He's just trying to be another member of the audience, and maybe set up a premise or two. I don't see why you have to turn it into a damn competition.
