Big fan of how people posting soft-core porn on TikTok will caption it “fake everything” to get around the algorithm. Hmm, very true. Fake everything. . .
thats Larry David’s whole comedic thesis is that he’s perpetually an ‘outsider’ who has to put up with arbitrary and inscrutable rules. The comedy is the interaction of the ‘Major’ American culture with the ‘Minor’ Jewish culture. Much like Kafka in Austria.
Increasingly I'm starting to realise that Larry would not be considered to be so funny outside the US cuz his whole thing about being a weirdo with weird thoughts wouldn't work outside. Many of the things he does would be considered normal anywhere but the US
