Danny Pudi also said “socks” and Larry King was not having it. Makes me think Danny would be cool to meet and Larry not at all.

I met Danny at my local coffee shop. I am a total ass and said "Abed?". He said " Danny. " and shook my hand. Thus confirming my status as Total Ass, and his as a mensch.
To be fair, Abed would say "Abed" if he met the actor that played himself...
I'd rather not meet Larry right now. I imagine it would be yucky and frightening and then eventually boring with a side of PTSD.
I would also not want to meet Larry now either.
Considering the fact that he died in 2021 and Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery is probably not the most fun place to visit haha

It was always like that
Of the two I'd easily meet Danny Pudi! Always heard he's a class act and super humble to be around.
That and the fact that Larry King died in 2021 and randomly hanging at the Hillside Cemetery may not be the vibe haha
I'd imagine it would mostly be a one-sided conversation with Larry if you met him today. Unless you happen to be schizophrenic.
You cannot meet Larry anymore though, not in this life.
Not with that attitude.
All you need is the right attitude... and a shovel.

Nah, Danny is spot on: A good cup of coffee at the right time can be pretty luxurious.
Considering the amount of labor goes into growing beans, curing them, and sending them all over the world:
I don't know what the fuck else could be the definition of a luxury, but that's a fucking luxury to have the result of a plant that mostly grows in the tropics readily available to be purchased and used at supermarkets worldwide.
Like, when East India Tea company ruled the waves, did people not think tea was a luxury? Because same deal, the amount of labor involved was gargantuan. It was absolutely the definition of a luxury.
Just because capitalism has made it "cheap" means nothing.
Just wait until climate change kills the vast majority of coffee crops. That'll probably remind people that it's a luxury.
That's gonna remind people a whole lot of shit is a luxury.
like breathing fresh air, and a remarkable lack of knives in your ribcage.
Like tap water and plumbing.
As areas warm up we’ll just move tropical fruit production to areas previously incompatible. We’ll be enjoying the French coffee industry because grapes can’t grow there anymore!
And we'll be enjoying antarctic wine! Nothing like a good penguin rose.
Imagine the privilege and lack of historical awareness to not believe coffee is a luxury
If it's a luxury, isn't it almost by definition "something you can live without?"
You're confusing the word "can" with the word "can", which is understandable, since they are spelt the same way.
What
Don't you mean what?
Didn't you mean your mean to mean middle or average?
I'm so glad that Abed made me watch My Dinner with Andre. I would have never have seen it without the way that Pudi carried that bit off.
I've still been meaning to watch it, specifically because of that episode.

Oh shit, thank you
This clip lives rent free in my head and occasionally pops up from time to time. Love how Danny pointed out he’s not a megastar and nice socks are a luxury to him.
The socks he’s talking about are expensive too. Like $20 a pair.
I’m buying 6 pairs for, maybe, $20, so yeah, wool socks are a luxury item.
Who did he play on DuckTales?
Huey
I thought all three were voiced by Ben Schwartz.
That was actually Danny Pudi doing a Ben Schwartz impression, that's why it sounds like that.
You didn't notice Louie was Bobby Moynihan? His voice is pretty distinctive to me.
It was actually a sarcastic joke, I'm well aware. Sort of a meta-joke about how in the original run they all had the same voice.
And because I so often wish I had more Ben Schwartz in my life.
Does anyone know if there's a community (the tv show) community on lemmy / the fediverse?
I haven't seen one yet, but you could always make it somewhere.
