Secret of Happiness is to be Thankful

"The speed of light is too slow for you?"

brilliant!!!!!. so true!!!.

He doesn't seem to realize it, but as he is describing how life was like when he was young and how one had to wait when dialing a zero on the rotary phone, he is actually doing exactly the same thing that he's accusing the current generation of - "being ungrateful".
Technology doesn't so much make life easier, as making it more complex and this with ever increasing speed. It's an arms race between the need for comfort and growing demands. Nihil novi sub sole.

and you dont seem to realize that part was a joke lols

@ RealistRichN:
Hmm, even if it's funny this is meant as a statement nevertheless. Satire works that way. He got the audience laughing, but he's definitely trying to make a point here. Doesn't he? But maybe I am just having a different understanding of comedy and satire in general, than you do. That's fine with me.

But if you believe anything that is funny can't impossibly have a serious background, go ahead and watch?v=J0rSXjVuJVg

the point isnt about how people are ungreatful, the point is that it sucks that we cant appreciate what we have despite how far we've come watch?v=BjNgNDZzH5o

@ RealistRichN:
Thank you for that link. I was really surprised that his "joke" had such an impact, that they made an interview about it. Amazing that you actually found a video in which CK supports both our views. I was wrong about one thing though. He DID realize that he was unappreciative himself. After all he was the person that was complaining about the unstable internet link on the plane. Fascinating guy!! And thanx again RealistRichN

its so true everything, he said alot of people have self entitilemt or something, you know like they are better than everyone else and damn it all if they dont get their way, a friend of mine was on a subway train and it was shortturned and this lady fliipped, yelling at the crew, like "you're not doing your job, i should have you reported to get audited" what a bitch, the train was being rerouted to fill gaps in rush hour it wasnt to spite you!

No, a "smart ass" is someone who goes around posting video titles in Chinese to try to boost his self importance. And if not knowing Chinese makes me...uh..."Mr. not-so-smart ass". Then you might as well throw the majority of the world in with me, doucher.
