Remembering Rotary Phones

Posted by newscoma | Posted in Television | Posted on 04-12-2008

This may just be one of the most brilliant talk show appearances ever by Louis CK.

I have to tell you, if you remember using rotary phones, it’s a must see.

    That is classic. But, heck, I remember “party lines.”

    Awesome, nothing like a little perspective, eh?

    Oh my – that was hysterical! I love Louis C.K.! He’s an everyman genius. Thank you so much for posting that – I almost never get to see the late night talk shows anymore, I’m so lame.

    oh wow… they should put that video on the airplane prior to the emergency speil that the flight attendants go thru.

    About the phone thing – I’m like Jerry Seinfeld. I really miss slamming down phones. Hitting the little “end call” button just doesn’t have the same effect, ya know? They should add a button to cell phones to make that noise for calls that include arguments with family, significant others and credit card companies. If the iPhone made an application like that, I’d pay extra for it.

    I heard him on the Bob and Tom radio show one morning talking about his now cancelled sitcom on HBO. They were trying to ’spice’ it up, and they wanted some nudity, because, hey, they’re HBO. He had promised the actress who went on to play his wife that she wouldn’t have to take off her clothes to do the show, and he didn’t feel right trying to pressure her into, essentially, showing her boobs for ratings.

    So he did a scene where he got out of bed, naked, and walked across the room in all his naked man, full frontal glory, and said, “You asked for nudity and edginess, I gave it to you. Now leave us alone.”

    I always liked him after hearing that story.

    Life With Louie was a great experiment, but I really think Louis CK is one of the better working comedians today. He’s seriously awesome. Great clip!

    Hey, good one, I love the whole thing, especially the patience people lack.

    Sorry to hear about JOB, as a out of place worker, it sucks and I feel you, which is why I hardly blog anymore, I find it hard not to pour my real feelings out for the public.

    here have a beer, let’s whine together.

    I believe I would have my uterus reinstalled just to have that man’s red-headed brilliant snarky babies.

    I do not say that lightly.

    I think I may begin stalking him. On the Internets, of course.
