I still laugh about him getting rid of a car worth a few hundreds thousands because he was JUST worth 987 millions.

u/[deleted] Jan 14 '23

"RADIO ON THE INTERNET!" Yeah he was a crazy man but one of the funniest of the entire series. Sucks that it ended.

I gotta say, that is a really dumb new attempt at a thing.

ITS GONE META

u/Alex_Albons_Appendix Jan 13 '23

Go watch Silicon Valley then come back to this thread

u/Bacon_Hunter Jan 13 '23

Oh a show invented this new gimmick? Nah, pass.

5

u/Alex_Albons_Appendix Jan 13 '23

🙄 the OP’s post was a quote from the show, not a gimmick or attempt at anything, it’s not that serious

u/colourlessgreen Jan 13 '23

Good to know. Up next, the conversation every parent dreads: how to talk to your kids about the blockchain.

4

u/kronik85 Jan 13 '23

What's the gimmick, as you understand it?

11

u/idigclams Jan 13 '23

Why? This seems like EXACTLY what we should judge men by. Not the size of their truck, or the cost of their sports car, or the bluster of their rhetoric. Not how badass their tats are, or how angry they are at whatever. Just, "do you get laid?"

The hippie dude with the man bun is getting laid regularly, while the proud boy jerks off to revenge porn. Man bun wins!

2

u/Geno0wl Jan 13 '23

how do you judge people with low libidos or happen to be outright asexuals?

u/Lessthanzerofucks Jan 13 '23

Well, those people fuck the MOST. Metaphorically.

u/Lessthanzerofucks Jan 13 '23

It’s actually about how the book “Less Than Zero” totally fucks. I liked it, anyway.

u/JEWCEY Jan 14 '23

It still works with less than zero context

u/iCantPauseItsOnline Jan 13 '23

Does this have some relevance to the above comment that I'm not picking up, or did you just share an unrelated ad to the company being discussed?

-1

u/deirdresm Jan 13 '23

It’s more about the next comment up (“Well. How do you like Tim Apples?”) because Suzi Wu’s song has the line “Um. Gonna eat that apple.”

Now that I watch that specific video, though, it doesn’t have that line in it, but I think there were other cuts (edit: of the ad) that did.

6

u/iCantPauseItsOnline Jan 13 '23

that makes sense, cool. not gonna lie, after I left that comment I took a gander at your profile to see if you were a bot, lol. sorry to doubt you so hard. I now love this /r/guitarporn sub XD

5

u/deirdresm Jan 13 '23

No worries!

I’m a contractor (software engineer) at the fruit co working in video production and one of the apps I worked on was for QAing variations of a video (different resolutions and aspect ratios). This was one of the videos used to test it, so I’ve seen (parts of) that ad about 5,000 times.

Since we’re in a guitar sub, here’s a lovely blue PRS I own.

2

u/iCantPauseItsOnline Jan 13 '23

Shit! That is beautiful. God damn. I've never had a PRS but everyone I know who does, loves it :D

big fan of you, friendo. have a great friday :)

u/youthfully_gleaming Jan 13 '23

When Trump introduced Tim to other tech CEOs, he called him Tim Apple. It was some kind of meeting at the White House, cant remember for what

1

u/BeardOBlasty Jan 13 '23

Fuck, Apple has always had stellar commercials.

Been so long since I saw a video ad all the way through hahaha

u/motor-vader Jan 13 '23

It’s a Trump / Good Will Hunting crossover

u/FatSilverFox Jan 13 '23

Will wouldn’t have needed any help determining the optimal number of dicks to jerks.

u/abrandis Jan 13 '23

We need another show in the vein of Silicon Valley doesn't have to be tech, any other self pretentious industry would do, would love to see centered around medicine, ...

u/Poopiepants666 Jan 13 '23

Wicked pay cut

u/squirrelyz Jan 13 '23

Louis CK’s bit on this scene from Good Will Hunting is incredible lol

Tim Apples vs Bill Microsofts in the Trons 3 is what I’m waiting for
