Childish Gambino

most of the show is pretty trad character-driven sitcom stuff

the word is spelled "tard"

like it's literally insane that you're pretending as if 'referential' comedy is completely offensive to you on every level considering how you form every single joke you make

actually ship, I watched the entire first episode of Community

i think it's really funny that someone who hates this show so much has read all this stuff about it on the internet so he can bitch about the meta content. meanwhile i like this show well enough (it's one of three things on tv that my gf and i can agree on) and have literally never read anything about it other than the ilx thread and never understand the references unless someone irl explains them to me.

first ep was far from their best but i'm not gonna front like it's a 100% different show now or anything

good man

whiney how much time do you spend on the internet just curious

too much

the usefulness of disliking the internet, as a writer or as a listener etc.

i'm gonna go read the grunge book some more, peace fuckin out

whiney doing a valuable service itt

While performing "Baby Boomer Santa", Troy and Abed recreate musical styles from the 1940s to 1980s, including performing "Dancing in the Dark" and Troy impersonating Bob Dylan.[1][5]

oh there's star wars references in this one too, very fresh stuff!

is there a succinct word or phrase for when you don't interact with a piece of media directly, but you find pleasure in keeping tabs on it indirectly? like whiney itt, or like how i can't watch a republican debate without wanting to die inside but i'll read people live-blogging one with great enjoyment.

thread got awesome again

whiney's hating of community for doing what the simpsons has made every show do, also on a christmas episode, is hilar

all christmas episodes of tv usually suck

Community's christmas episodes are awesome! the claymation one was a tad disappointing based on the hype, but the one with Anthony Michael Hall as the 'bully' was all time.

"MY LIFE is a gym!"

also the attempts to provoke Community fans itt are kinda hilar.

this was one of the parts that was clearly making fun of Glee btw

i was in high school choir (lettered in it 3 times, lol nerd) and man if it weren't nothin like Glee. we had lots of criminals and future dropouts in choir my sophomore year. no bubbly people at all.

although the everybody having sex wth each other part def happened

SING OUT YOUR LUNGS WHERE I'M FROM, GLEE CLUB SON, AIN'T NOTHIN NICE

just saw this ep, it was p bad I thought

RONG

unless you mean bad like Michael Jackson

what's funny about whineys trolling itt isn't just that it's funny sometimes, it's the whole idea of a nerd flexing nuts because the stuff he's nerdy about is like more tuff or something. tho I guess dude IS the metalhead itt, so I dunno, I'm just gonna sit here humming tmbg songs while he reads a grunge book, furiously

i'm also a metalhead ftr

and the metal i listen to is more tr00

and has more bpm

well I like metal too but dude for real wgw already staked out a claim as the metalhead itt

isn't whiney a kevin smith fan?

'that's not how you make star wars jokes...*this* is how you make star wars jokes'

this ep was a little too much like actually watching glee

yes, whiney celebrates the whole kevin smith filmography

lol @ "reads a grunge book, furiously"

q: does anyone here think the amazingly bad community xmas bumper whiney posted is anything other than horrible?

the one where minor community characters sing "carol of the bells" using their catchphrases? can't believe anyone could muster up a stronger sentiment than "eh, dorky" tbh

Asian dude chanting "CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG" doesn't seem at all off to you?

Not if you speak his Changuage

Um, i get the Senor Chang schtick. Is the joke that if you put a layer of irony on top of it, it's okay to be just a bit racist on national television?
Scratch that, I'm aware that's the case. i'm asking if it doesn't ring a little off to you.
I kinda dislike everything i've ever seen jeong in really; dude reminds me of jim carrey.

huh, it honestly didn't occur to me that him chanting "chang" could be construed as racist -- he's been doing the puns on his name for two seasons now

xp yeah you're right and most of their end of episode bumpers are terrible if not racist

if you're not familiar with the show at all, an asian dude chanting CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG to the tune of carol of the bells might be conceivably misconstrued as racist, yes.

xp end of episode bumpers s1 & s2 were incredible!

dude reminds me of jim carrey.

ty for figuring out why i dont like him

I don't know about racist, but they have kinda ruined his character... in season one Chang was awesome, now he's just a painfully unfunny loser caricature.

this is obviously true but chang jokes have so consistently not taken that angle that there's no ambiguity if you're even the slightest bit familiar with the show, so like who cares what ppl who watch parks & rec think?

and the metal i listen to is more tr00
