What exactly was wrong with the forums? I've heard it talked about in this thread before, but I've never visited it.

I'm imagining some combination of incestuous sycophancy and people trying too hard to imitate Seth/Jonathon.

Ugh. Seth put the wrong date on that paper! Saturday is the 2nd. I briefly got all sorts of happy because my friends epic Halloween bash is scheduled for the *2nd* and I thought maybe the party was scheduled for Friday and I'd be able to do both. Nope! Silly Seth.

Ah well, if the show actually starts at 8 I should be able to get at least some face time at the party.

It's depressing hearing him say that every year as I go back through the archives. I believed too, Seth. I believed too :( I'm just glad they didn't have a show in 2005. The Seattle playoff game is probably what made him sober

Yeah if you don't like this show after giving it a fair shot, we're not cool anymore.

I don't think the person that wrote that crazy post understands people at all. They complain about people putting the guys up on a pedestal but then don't treat them as human to make errors or have any character flaws. The best part about the show is the fact that they make no excuses for who they are, or what they think. I think that the guys are usually pretty on point, but when I disagree, whatever, they are who they are.

All that goes without mention that the blog writer got in contact with Johnny Lee R1che$$$ and set up his internet presence, because ???.

The whole thing boiled down to "We're not actually best buds, and now that I know that I'm upset, gently caress those guys."

Wait, this person only just realized UYD is negative tonally and Jonathan and Seth are egotistical? The whole podcast is about poo poo-talking everything that isn't specifically to their tastes and acting like everyone's less awesome than them, Jonathan said that himself in one of the 2007 episodes IIRC. I mean, it's still funny so I enjoy it most of the time, but I don't know how this person could think that's some big secret they've just discovered.

Thank you. You seem to be one of the only people in this thread who doesn't accuse me of not getting it or whatever when I say this. I'm not criticizing the podcast or the people who enjoy it(because I'm among those who enjoy it) by saying they talk mad poo poo. Even Jonathan has referred to that as most of what they do on the podcast.

I like the show a lot, but I'm hesitant to say I get it. I guess I just feel like there's nothing to get. I realize this whenever I try to introduce the show to a friend.

I'll put down a couple thousand words on how I feel about the show and link y'all my tumblr post on it.

Quick, time for the other thing that will derail a UYD discussion to stop it from happening!

Who else has introduced "steeze" and "a grip" into their daily conversation, and has increased usage of "fresh" and "on point" dramatically?

And I now use "grip" far too much than I should be allowed.

Steeze was a thing I hadn't heard before UYD, so of course I started saying it.

Increased use of "wicked (positive/negative adjective)" also.

Seth is talking about Andy Rooney impotently raging at the world and how some day they are going to be those old men who just don't understand society anymore and look like complete lunatics. Jah says that it already happened back in 2005 when they first decided to do the podcast. I just listened to this episode the other day, I think it's in the early 100's.

Yeah, there was also one episode where Jonathan says something about the show mostly being "us talking about how we're more awesome than everyone else" but I forget which one it is.

Yeah I recently heard that rant from J it is definitely in the early 100s.

Also being from LA I hadn't heard anyone say "grip" since I was in high school. That was really popular slang until the early 2000s by my experience. Kinda weird when I started listening to UYD because it seems to J and Seth that it never went out of style.

Also "steeze" I had heard before but never that much. They use it way more than I've ever heard anyone in my life.

Fresh is still pretty fresh. And on point is still fresh as well.
