I will update that it seems the etymology refers to one's mental state when they're so out of it (such as being very drunk sleep deprived) that even hearing a random word such as "teaspoon" could send them laughing.
Deepest appreciation for Larry. Lights up the world with laughter. Comedic Genius. Never needed more than now. Rewatch all past episodes, they’re as new!
Imagine someone actually having an audio clip of Larry’s rant at SNL because it was so close to air time that the cameras and microphones were already recording.
That would be like the deranged hillbilly that left a voice message on Mike Judge’s answering machine, which he later used as the inspiration for Boomhauer 😂. That voice message recently came to light.
"That's it. This is it. I'm done! Through! It's over! I'm gone! Finished! Over! I will never work for you again! Look at you (chuckle)! You think you're an important man, is that what you think? You are a laughingstock. You are a joke. These people are laughing at you! You're nothing! You have no brains, no ability, nothing! I quit."
@@SteveMarzo-ti7fy People in New York know basic Spanish...Its an insanely big melting pot. So it would definitely work in NY clubs where Larry performed.
i think the best part of this is imagining Larry trying to tell you he can't take a photo with you and then bursts out laughing in your face. then walks away.
That's par for course on RUclips though. Or media in general. There HAS to be ads of some sort. Unless you have extremely clean content you have to do ad reads in the podcast. And even then if you have a staff they have to be paid somehow. I mean, you can't expect all of those people who work there to work for free, right? lol It's so easy to fastforward too. Like it took me 8 clicks of the right arrow key. lol Idk, maybe its becaus I am a 90's kid and am used to commercials that it doesn't bother me as much, because I get it. Nothing is free. People are too used to instant content, ad blockers or apps like tiktok and expect to never see ads when comsuming content. lol The only other option would be paid subscription, and I prefer being able to watch it for free and occasionally having to take a few mere seconds to fast foward through a couple ads. lol
@@ryanmarbut1035 True, over half a billion dollars, annual royalty payments in the tens of millions and multiple fully paid for mansions is not enough to live on, let alone make a studio podcast. Conan needs to be able to afford food, people! Love how profiteering billionaires are constantly defended as if they still need money to feed their families. Conan alone could run a pretty big non-profit business out of his own pocket at this point without seeing a dent in his many bank accounts, as the interest he earns alone on his personal wealth is more than most regular businesses earn annually. He could be spending his life now doing immense good around the world without relying on anyone else at all if he wanted to - he could certainly fund a podcast all by himself, and it's not like someone like Conan couldn't do that to a pretty successful, popular and profitable degree without corporate pandering. He should be doing something far more valuable for society at this point frankly than sitting in a studio advertising big businesses and just patting the extremely wealthy of Hollywood on the back telling each other how amazing and genius they are...
I took Spanish but never heard it called "tu form", even though it has the same concept with tu,/usted, or vosotros/ustedes. Therefore, I didn't have a clue what he was saying in his joke. It was just called informal/formal.
It’s a smart joke, and even though I took French he didn’t bother to pronounce it right or make the premise clear so it went over my head :/ Solid opener though
Classical Latin did not have a formal ‘you’ form either. That appears to have been a later invention! Curiously, English did have a formal ‘you’ form: ‘You’ (lit. ‘you’ plural). The informal form was ‘thou’ (lit ‘you’ singular) but this fell out of fashion during urbanization.
I call them barometer jokes. I once saw a touring comedian preform in North Carolina and he opened with a couple of jokes about sister-banging and jesus. Then he kinda did the "pregnant pause" of anticipation while everyone laughed, and then he did his real set, which was all a tightly-written theme. Im frankly not sure what he would have done if he had gotten booed.
@@cloudzrest Not sure why you feel the need to "correct" me over my own damn colloquialism, but no, it's not. There are a wide variety of sayings regarding checking the vibes of a group of people, and the one I specifically chose revolves around a device used for testing the pressure of the air... i.e. the tension in the room.
@@j.gregory6478 I’m 90% sure that this is a joke, but to clarify for others who might be reading, he’s a scholar in Medieval Theology, not a theologian from the Middle Ages😊
my comedy started with SNL ( original cast ) then FRIDAYS ( was a short 2 yrs.. ) then i went to Lettermen ( who coincidentally i was sick of ) then the new HERO was the CONE... he was replaced by LD who is my literal HERO and has been this whole year ! ( as i watched s11-12 went back and did s9-12 again THEN i went back and watched it s1-12 2x more... ) i watch him every day now w/ the clips from Marty F and Richard L ( may they both RIP ) i watch that prolly twice a day now and sometimes MORE. what i would give just to meet the GENIUS that is known affectionately as LD. i even go back and to watch Seinfeld and imagine george is actually LD !!! i never who the voice of Steinbrenner was either but i do NOW its even more gut busting ! thank to you ALL for everything and helping me maintain my sanity. :)
A lot of comedians use the strange method of expecting people to read their minds to get laughs. Like if the joke isn't set up, most people aren't going to invest the effort to think of all the possible permutations. That's why Larry does better with writing.
I always liked Louis CK's response to pics: "No. But, what's your name? What do you do for a living?" Several minutes later the stranger left feeling a much stronger bond than if they had just taken a picture.
When I was a youthful lad I lived in a horrible town where it seemed like no one liked to watch tv, you were a loser, an outcast if you liked tv or talked about shows that were drama or comedy. This was so far back it was kind of before MTV and Comedy Central hit. SNL was in a horrible phase. SCTV was magical. This show “Fridays” came on and it seemed weird, didn’t even address it being an SNL duplicate. They had this guy who I thought was sort of repugnant and I couldn’t figure out how this unfunny, cringe person (although no one really used cringe like that back then) could be on TV. That guy turned out to be Larry David who turned out to be the most brilliant comedian of all time. It goes to show you just never know. I guess I have to add that another show ran at the time that was a lifeblood, Late Night with David Letterman, a broadcast that gave me hope that life could be joyous. On that show Seinfeld appeared as guest, and Jerry’s greatness I saw right away. Anyway that’s my story.
Makes me miss the Funkman even more when I see Larry! The Arab chicken episode is engrained in my soul as well as the episode where he purchased a prostitute to drive in the carpool lane to avoid traffic getting to Yankee stadium.
As a lifelong student of both Spanish and French, I think I just heard the joke of my lifetime. Had I been in one of the audiences that didn't laugh, I would've laughed hard at the joke and then at the berating of the non-laughers. It would've been the comedy club-going experience of my life.
I haven’t seen the rest of the podcast but I hope they’ve somehow brought up Norm. Him and Larry are my two comedy heroes but unfortunately their worlds never got to meet, and I’ve always wondered what Larry thought of him. I know Seinfeld loved him from the Netflix shows. And he also did the roast of Bob Saget with Susie Essman and Jeff Garlin. But unfortunately that’s as close as their worlds ever got to each other.
The “no pictures” qualification is brilliant. Put a qualifier on it and people are more likely to accept it. Hey Larry, thats a great idea for a Curb bit! Or better yet, no accepting Curb bits should be a Curb bit!
Wow!!! The tu form!!! That is hysterical! That is a super high level of comedy there... NOT everyone at a comedy show took a foreign language!!! That is funny though.
Who remembers Larry on Fridays, the SNL knock off that I think was better in many ways? He looked like Larry from the Three Stooges, with glasses. Look it up :D
I kinda love how Larry and Conan get on. It would be sick if Jerry went on the pod but I can't help thinking it's never gonna happen 😄Mutual respect between Seinfeld and Conedawg but not super close????
There was a Seinfeld episode where George had insulted his boss and his entire company and had ended up quitting, and then the next day he came back to work pretending that it had never happened (well, he actually said that it was his way of joking), so i guess this is where Larry and Jerry got the idea.
He had two old standup bits which I saw him do 40 years ago and never forgot. One was about the embitterment of Jonas Saulk's mother and the other was about Dr. Mengele.
Maybe the people in the audience did speak Spanish/French/Italian. They might question why would Caesar stop using the Tu form just because Brutus stabbed him? It’s not reserved for people you like but for people you know personally enough to be casual around or people who are your social subordinates.
Como sonrisa eras usted eras usted eras tu would be so much different, even if i dont know all the words... its in tommy boy and my high school. 47, PA, unemployed.
I had a Sona relationship back in the 80s. I was definitely a ball buster in my Boutique office - a small team, small company. But the one guy who was, btw, the only employee I hung onto until the end of my business run, was this guy. He would get fed up with me and curse me out, but he'd always be there the next day. I never realized at the time what an eff-head I can be, and I still think about him to this day. I think there's probably a lot of people who are crazy enough to run a business against all odds, and to be successful, which I considered myself to be at the time.. But to be teamed up with someone who ultimately ends up becoming a family member is perhaps one of the best things you can ever happen to you. And no, I've never learned how not to be an eff-head when I do my own business. I just know that when it's coming up, I try to lay low. There is no magic solution, by the way. We are who we are. I just need to know how to get out of other people's way and still get a product out. btw, Thanks for hanging in there with me Danny.

Larry cracks me up when he laughs. His lower jaw moves like a wind-up chattering skull.
That is the best description😂😂
Or reminds me of a puppet laughing haha 😂
Such a good analogy. True! 😂
I've heard it described as a nutcracker
Thats what Bill Hader said...
I love how joyous the laughing is in the lead-up before Larry even gets to the joke. 😂
I have no idea why, but in my country we call uncontrollable laughter that prevents you from speaking properly a "teaspoon state".
I will update that it seems the etymology refers to one's mental state when they're so out of it (such as being very drunk sleep deprived) that even hearing a random word such as "teaspoon" could send them laughing.

Larry cracking up in the beginning must be like the set of Curb all day lol
Larry David berating the crowd for not laughing at his joke is the most Larry David thing ever

Another one would be “Lemme ask you a question”😂

Pretty sure Latin didn't have a familiar "tu" when Caesar was around - it was just the singular. Perhaps the angry crowds were just Latin scholars.
I love that they were already laughing befor he told the joke😂😂😂😂

He quite often cracks up, he could barely get through reading "mean tweets" about himself.
