Everyone's gay with their dad

All generations think that the generation before condescended to them. The Lost Generation thinks the Baby Boom generation condescended to them, the Baby Boom generation thinks the Roaring Twenties generation condescended them, the Roaring Twenties thought the same thing about the turn-of-the-century people, and so on and so forth. Everyone thinks their problems are unique but they’re really not. Everyone is, indeed, gay.

I'm pretty sure it's pronounced 'ghey'

Hey I’m still gay you’re right

Combustible Lemons Trains are cool.

@Ellis Dee I'm confused apparently like you.

@@clayjack9969 Explain yourself unless you are just a jerk face. If so great job and congrats pal.

The implication is that Nick is standing on a bridge overlooking a railroad and Adam & Stav are trying to talk him down from leaping beneath the wheels of an oncoming street car.

I would look for these moments in the semi early eps through my earlier years in addiction / depression. It’d be ridiculous, which is how I think and am anyway, but insanely relatable.

The way you talk is mad autistic

I hate you for making me look up a word, but that’s a good word so I forgive you

Honestly hearing someone switch into that mode of thinking, from the outside, really helps me to keep from doing it myself. Like I must have been that guy so many times in college.

You're using bonary thinking

But it also is capitalism

Oh so you want to live in communist China where everyone drinks each others cum and shares a buttplug? Pffft it’s never worked…

im autistic and gay depressed and addicted .🐻

@@Snaaaked Cool as fuck

There’s 3 wolves inside of you, Nick is ultimately the most correct. Stav doesn’t really know what’s happening. Adam legitimately will become a Disney adult. All 3 of those wolves are gay btw.

@@SnaaakedYou’re a combination of all of your friends, you have stavs addiction, nicks depression, Adams autism, and all of them are gay.

I'm here, 1+ year later, relating more to the comments than the actual video. You gay guys are alright.

you’re right but I don’t know if i can be positive about life and like myself

@@qojte I’ve felt the same way, the truth is you have to really WANT to change to make a change, so if you really want to become positive or have positive outlook you will find a way, but you have to really want it, I can’t stress that point enough. Ps I used mdma to get ahold of my depression and it helped me get out of a 5 year opiate addiction, it’s not for everybody but if you’re a severely depressed person like I was it’s something to think about, it helped me. It doesn’t give you all the answers but it can give you a lot of tools that can help, again it’s not for everybody.

Yea think about death constantly and all that definitely is not a way to live. I know it firsthand, still struggling with it. Might have BPD, not sure though, also not entirely hopeful meds will help. I do see what you mean though with having to really want to change your outlook and all that.

Seems kinda gay

Not to sound straight or anything but ever since I heard this I cringe everytime my buddy wants to play madden or someshit. I barley watch tv now. Now I’m just an alcoholic who watches cumtown (RIP) clips

I feel this way whenever I watch sports now. I wasted so much of my life watching sports.

if you get rid of the comforts modern life tells you to indulge and distract with, it hits you how sad just living and working can be. When I lost video games because I had to work, the idea i could play them again later made me realize how dull they were. Same with tv, movies, food even. I dont even get excited to have good food anymore and i used to love to cook.

@@TruStoogeDrew. Don't be a dick to your friend because of a gay podcast, drinking and listening to podcasts is just as regressive as playing video games, Nick is talking about creative output and general fulfillment, not just trying to not look like a baby.

@@vyviid hell yeah brother

Thats so accurate

Yeah.

Well put.

Yurrrrr

I'm still working through this, but an almost insignificant amount of anyones life is impactful in that way. Lying in wait for those moments is living in hell. You have to make your monotonous day to day as passively enjoyable as you can, because really that is life, it's all you get, minus a couple hours of excitement. And you have to really figure out what is enjoyable, long term (ie not gaming and not cocaine). That being said, it is hard to dig yourself out of a cynical rut, especially after wearing it deeper for years and years.

Midwit Rick and morty fan

Insanely stupid comment.

Yeah its funny listening to 3 grown men who are all unmarried and childless trying to find a way to make their life substantial.

Still if I had a choice between living rn in this time and 100 years ago id still choose this time.

Keyword here is "you"

Recently dropped out of a prestigious out of state college so I could go to the in state colleges with all my high school friends. It was really lonely at the out of state college even if I was in a room full of people so I decided it just wasn't worth the fancy degree.

But you can remember being 11 for the rest of your life, something Nick’s taught me

But you can still be disappointed by everything because deep down you still want to be 11. Nick is not mature, just conscious of his own arrested development and depressed by it.

and im gay

Age 19/20 I already had this sense. Couldn’t stomach more than a bit of the games music and entertainment I used to like. I think part of this feeling and the feeling of lost-nostalgia stem from modern children having such a connection to their entertainment sources in the western world.

Found out since that nobody invests in America, so most college grads go in extreme debt to ignorantly await unemployment.

It's nice to see someone actually post something positive and encouraging about Stav. So much vitriol at the guy for going on his own after 6 years.

TAFS is collapsing. Adam needs to be fired.

Yeah, I feel like Nick making the observation that dumb bullshit absolutely KILLS in modern stand-up, really resonated with Stav and made him realise it was possible for him to make a living mentioning that he's fat and loves sex.

⁠@@Fart_Simpsonkeep talking like that and you’ll get a punch in the dick! Always believe in yourself especially when no one else does!

I think the sad thing is now people just expect that its normal to stop mentally growing after their high school years. Like, we have this weird cult of youth where nobody feels they're even allowed to grow up because they'll lose something. its ok to not be a kid, and "adulting" or doing responsible things shouldnt be treated like a chore. Like, pay your bills, clean your house, and then buy some cigarettes and whisky, and drink alone and accept who you are. People will try to normalize watching cartoons into their 50s before they adopt some stable adult-vices and hobbies. Your old, stop skateboarding, start writing, stop playing videogames and start whittling. If you buy nintendo shit, it should be for your own children, not for you.

Fucking facts man excellent analysis

@Lucas I know this sounds like fucking boomer “I walked into the CEO’s office and demanded a job and he gave me one” advice but I’ve found that after you’ve submitted your application calling the location and asking to speak to the hiring manager and telling them your name and asking them to please be on the lookout for your application dramatically increases your chances of getting hired, like you said putting a face or even just a voice to the name really sets you apart from the hundreds of other applications

my exact experience with that show, QI etc ...

Something made me genuinely laugh out loud yesterday for the first in probably months, shit is whack. I've got almost complete anhedonia, it's really hard to enjoy anything that isn't an opiate.

@@alligatormonday6365 I feel that, I seek sex but I don't even enjoy it anymore. I feel like I'm trying to find intimacy but I don't know how. I hate this.

8 out of ten cats**

@@MrJimShorts Totally agree. I only remember one joke I laughed at from the recent Chappelle Netflix special ("Brenda, I ain't no n***er either..." and it was mostly the delivery rather than the joke itself, which you could see coming from a mile away). And I can't get rid of the feeling that the guy is there for the sole purpose of making me laugh. Especially when it's multiple short contrived setups and punchlines you don't care about ("I went to the sex shop the other day...", "A buddy of mine has this huge German Shepherd...", "You ever wonder why people at the vegan aisle..."). The interaction between people and the unintended things happening are the best part for me, usually. The YMH Joey Diaz 10-minute leg story was funny because Pazitsky was getting progressively more and more outraged and disgusted and it culminated in an obscene joke that made Segura spit his water out. The funniest moment in Nick and Stav's Auschwitz Announcer bit was when Nick's character ran out of jokes ("The ovens? Hmmm..."). Such a beautiful and surreal moment (the whole bit was). Or Norm setting Andy Dick up with "a 9/11 call from Johnny Carson" with Andy crying with laughter. Also agree on sitcoms. Comfy setting, comfy characters in humorous situations. But not exactly laugh riots (especially if you remove the laugh track).

@Barnaby Jones I feel the same way about gaming at 23, its like locking yourself in this synthetic mirage of reality that can no longer satiate you. Its what I imagine something like a Tiger or Gorilla experiences living its entire life in a zoo

@@namedidii Yeah, and? Everything I just said still applies to Pokemon and Mario Kart. If you love a song your whole life because you grew up with it, why would the games you grew up with be any different? Maybe it's not cool in your eyes, but it's still pretty banal and normal.

@@Ryan-Petre I'm assuming he grew up pre-mario-kart and he's one of the 'mature' people you mention... For him it's 'outrun' or you're a godless heathen. Incase the subtlty is lost btw, i disagree that being 'stuck in your ways' in terms of taste is a mark of maturity -- it's the opposite. Preference is fine, but to avoid exposure under the guise of maturity makes no sense to me. But i make no judgement for how people choose to consume their media :)

@@Stiltonator Well, I wouldn't advocate for anyone to turn a blind eye to new media because you can always learn something from newer stuff, and maybe "mature" was the wrong word. However, I think if you go and talk to pretty much any seasoned film director and ask them their favourite films, usually what you'll hear is movies from *their* era or earlier. You can like newer stuff, but I think most people outside of trend chasers are comfortable to rest on their baseline influences.

Good shit, though. I've had what they talked about in my head constantly for months and it felt really cathartic to hear them lay it out.

Try quitting weed. That is an obvious one.

I mean, I’m not gonna pretend I don’t have similar existential dread and nihilistic sentiments…. But come on. All you do aside from work is smoke weed, lay in bed and watch movies and TV shows? And you wonder why you’re completely numb and dead inside? Try doing something. Learn an instrument, try developing new skills, volunteer somewhere. My god. People do literally nothing but work and passively consume entertainment and wonder why they hate being alive. How is this a mystery?

The fact that Stavos moved on to brighter things while nick is still stagnant and miserable proves this

It's a recurring theme in the show that Nick has convinced himself that any way people make themselves happy is "wrong" and his own bitter stagnant nihilist contrarianism is "right" and noble

@@corncobjohnsonreal you can be a train expert or a sexpert, but not both

Well that is what depression is

I relate. During the most depressed periods of my life I would really start to hate on myself and anything I enjoyed in a pretty fucking similar way and I tried to pick up more what I saw as adult hobbies but then It wouldn't be long before I started to hate on those too and just increasingly seeing everything as a waste of time. Like the only thing that helps get out of this shit is picking up a more positive mindset or getting in a better place mentally where your not constantly just looking for excuses to put yourself down.
