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...

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 40 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] zenbhang@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

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

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

[-] MaxPower@feddit.de 15 points 1 year ago

You cannot meet Larry anymore though, not in this life.

All you need is the right attitude... and a shovel.

[-] Lurk99777@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

I'd imagine it would mostly be a one-sided conversation with Larry if you met him today. Unless you happen to be schizophrenic.

Nah, Danny is spot on: A good cup of coffee at the right time can be pretty luxurious.

[-] dingus@lemmy.ml 101 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.

[-] MostlyGibberish@lemm.ee 38 points 1 year ago

Just wait until climate change kills the vast majority of coffee crops. That'll probably remind people that it's a luxury.

[-] dingus@lemmy.ml 26 points 1 year ago

That's gonna remind people a whole lot of shit is a luxury.

[-] Narrrz@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

like breathing fresh air, and a remarkable lack of knives in your ribcage.

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!

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 7 points 1 year ago

And we'll be enjoying antarctic wine! Nothing like a good penguin rose.

[-] Moc@lemmy.world 120 points 1 year ago

Imagine the privilege and lack of historical awareness to not believe coffee is a luxury

[-] deathbird@mander.xyz 61 points 1 year ago

If it's a luxury, isn't it almost by definition "something you can live without?"

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

You're confusing the word "can" with the word "can", which is understandable, since they are spelt the same way.

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.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

I've still been meaning to watch it, specifically because of that episode.

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.

[-] jollyrogue@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] raspberry_confetti@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 year ago

Who did he play on DuckTales?

[-] dingus@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago

I thought all three were voiced by Ben Schwartz.

[-] norbert@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

That was actually Danny Pudi doing a Ben Schwartz impression, that's why it sounds like that.

Does anyone know if there's a community (the tv show) community on lemmy / the fediverse?
