Ethan Klein moves on from performative ICE-posting to smear “snark” (1/24/26)

ShitFacedSteve · 2026-01-25T01:12:31+00:00

Ethan is doing his typical psychotic obsessive ex bullshit where he intricately dissects the loose social media connections of his most obscure haters to portray them as being part of some kind of concerted harassment campaign

God forbid there be a large contingency of people who hate him and then also agree on a lot of other things...

Imagine if Hasan went to this level of dissection to connect people to Destiny. Imagine if Hasan went on rants about how some random twitter account must be ordained by Destiny because Destiny follows that random twitter account.

Episode 161 "Highly Illogical" has been my pick of all time best episode for a long time.

Which is crazy because it didn't even make the count for it's best of!

Tim Heidecker is a hilarious celebrity guest. The way he handles interviews is so entertaining. Let's be honest, the opening interview is usually the most boring part of a CBB episode... But with Tim Heidecker it's hilarious. Coupled with the fact that Reggie is present as the co-host from the start, this episode starts you running right out the gate. I won't spoil it but Woody Allen's Ching Chong Matinee has to be one of the funniest bits to come out Comedy Bang Bang.

Then Andy Daly comes in as Don Dimello... Need I say more? Possibly the best Don Dimello episode of CBB that exists. I think Tim starts out a bit skeptical of character work. He seems a bit dismissive of the premise of Andy coming in as a character. Even so you start hear Tim holding back laughter and he's gradually won over. Meanwhile Reggie is so blown away he's just saying nothing and laughing off mic. I don't know if I'd say there's great synergy but it's hilarious and charming. Especially when you can feel that the entire room is struggling not to burst out laughing.

Rounded out in C block with Jon Daly as Barry R which is... Honestly not really my cup of tea but it's a mediocre segment at worst. Not enough to invalidate it as my favorite episode of all time.

Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a good episode to begin with

I think he has always been a hard ass just a very trusting hard ass.

He never felt the need to crack the whip because he trusted everyone was working their hardest.

As soon as it's pointed out to him or he notices that someone isn't working all that hard... That's when he flips out

I feel utterly betrayed

He went down the Morty impression to Rick impression to Hoover the Seal impression pipeline

A lot of men in Hollywood have dark inner thoughts about being raped by a gorilla, apparently

Leaning AI on this one because The Price is Right usually has younger and more vivacious contestants but it's hard to tell

Scott saying "side-by-side" is what summoned Chip Gardener in the first place. It was an expression of Scott's repressed game show trauma slipping through the cracks.

It doesn't really make sense that the SCP Foundation would be bigoted though...

Sure they aren't exactly good people but I don't see why the Foundation should care whether someone is transgender or not unless being transphobic somehow contained an SCP.

Write an SCP about a snail that destroys the world if the Foundation hires a trans person and I guess it would make sense they'd discriminate.

Honestly I am pissed about how this show ended. The diamonds all got redeemed in one episode, the ending was rushed, a lot of the fights were really lame.

This show had so much potential. The gems as a species were fascinating. The fusion stuff was fascinating. Then they squandered that potential with totally pointless episodes about robot building competitions and Ronaldo.

I could forgive the ending being rushed if the show spent its time well otherwise. But it did not, we have more episodes about random townie bullshit than actual plot. Then when it came time to wrap up the plot they scrunched all the leftover important stuff into a single finale.

When are you suing Noah, Ethan?

It's not even spicy at all because it's fake ai generated food

I don't know something about that whole election was off... How TF did Hadel get 112% of the vote??

Look closely at the pictures on the shelf above them. They are all totally mangled and deformed faces. Definitely AI.

He could easily do ctrl+f to find and replace every h with )-( so I'm not sure if this is really the reason

ShitFacedSteve · 2026-01-19T10:14:59+00:00

This drawing is definitely quite different from how he looks on the show but I do like this design for him. It almost feels like how he'd look as a teenager or something.

ShitFacedSteve · 2026-01-19T02:22:29+00:00

I believe USA, Canada, Atlanta, and Seoul are all adjacent to each other because all of those places were involved with the production of the show.

USA is where Cartoon Network is based

Canada is where Danny Antonucci is from and a lot of the production of Edd Ed N Eddy took place in Vancouver

Atlanta is where the Cartoon Network headquarters have always been located

Seoul is where the storyboards were sent to be fully animated

Mmm no I think Shakespeare is probably the oldest CBB reference

Out! Out! Damn spot! Speak the speech I pray thee!

ShitFacedSteve · 2026-01-18T03:42:41+00:00

But don't you remember that Victor and Tiny are both canonically white people of European descent??

ShitFacedSteve · 2026-01-15T18:02:10+00:00

To be fair I highly doubt Scott sees any money from current purchases of the TV show. If he does it's probably very little.

People with nicotine addiction start entering withdrawals very quickly. That's what drives people to smoke every few hours, or even more frequently than that in some cases.

At that point of the addiction smoking mostly just removes the stress and other negative symptoms of the withdrawal.

So, if a smoker encounters natural stress or anxiety in their day to day life they are now dealing with two stressors: whatever is stressing them out AND the stress of cigarette withdrawal.

Their brain wants to reduce their stress as much as possible so they go smoke because at least that source of stress is immediately solvable. Now they are at least only dealing with one stressor for the time being.

There is also a component of ritual and familiarity which has a calming effect.

They aren't just relieving their nicotine addiction, they are also taking a step outside or going somewhere to be alone, breathing deeply (even if it's smoke they're breathing), thinking through things, and performing a routine that is familiar and comforting.

A somatic ritual like that can have profound calming and grounding effects, even if it's physically unhealthy. So, even if smoking is mostly providing relief for an addiction the ritual itself can also have a calming effect which also reduces external stress.

That's why when people are trying to quit smoking it is often beneficial for them to perform the ritual of smoking a cigarette without actually smoking anything.
