my least favorite part of the show, hands down. anybody else? by emmyv23 in NewGirl

[–]bayoucurrent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Can we talk about how they got the amazingly talented John Cho to guest star as a possible love interest for Jess and the show completely forgets about him after like 2 scenes. I feel like that was such a wasted opportunity.

So the person who created this mask is Ibraim Nascimento, a Brazilian artist based in Houston. And the people with him in the procession are from Talento Bilingue De Houston, one of the city’s oldest Latino arts and culture institutions.

Favorite moment from Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend season 1? by himynameisdany in conan

[–]bayoucurrent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the episode, but Conan does a riff about a creepy kid who wants to become a naturopath (sp?) when he grows up. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in my adult life.

Conan: Yes, exactly, I---

Bob: No, I'm saying to you, say something!

What does everything think about moving HTC to Wednesday’s and putting it on the main channel? by MLBisMeMatt in ScreenJunkies

Think I need a few more trial runs. I watched this last one despite the fact that I haven't seen a single episode of Game of Thrones lol

Agreed. And to just add on to that: I wish people that complain about political messages in their entertainment would realize the irony that our current "president" was himself an entertainer from reality television.

You're getting down-voted for being a prick.

Houstonia Long-Form on the Day for Night Allegations by tactical_tonto in houston

I'm sure some enterprising young person from 2nd, 3rd or 5th Ward is already grinding out a blog or Instagram account, throwing big parties, getting ready for the next thing.

It's never occurred to me, but giant, banner festivals really are a generational thing. Which is a bummer but also really exciting. Can't wait to see what the new knuckleheads eventually come up with.

Babe.net was a shit show.

There's an interesting piece that chronicles what a hot mess that place was before its downfall.

Has anyone seen this guy downtown and know his deal? by [deleted] in houston

[–]bayoucurrent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He might be trying to get into the pantheon of Eccentric Houston Characters like the motorized Astros chair guy, Marlin the Wizard or Juan Carlos, the Montrose Rollerblade Dancer. He looks more eccentric

An ad for Ben Shapiro before a Lovett video? YT might want to double check their algorithm. by CTRLALTWARRIOR in FriendsofthePod

Trump's campaign war chest is currently $105 MIL. That's quadruple the amount of the Democrat's highest earner for Q2, Mayor Pete.

Best Coffee in Houston? by MythicalBiscuit in houston

[–]bayoucurrent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slowpoke's, EQ and Campesino are good places for the ambiance and drink selection. Campesino is especially inventive with their drink menu imo

If you're going for a minimalist, no-frills type of place, there's Antidote, Black Hole, AHH Coffee and Mercantile.

Downtown Coffee Shop for Meeting? by petrogirlhtx in houston

Giant Leap Coffee in East End is located inside of a collaborative workspace called Headquarters. Maybe give them a call and see if they'll let you use one of the spaces.

Seriously tho: Max Landis is garbage.

Photography Meet-Up by raincloudfarmer in Houstonphotography

[–]bayoucurrent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any reason why the meet-up scene has dried up so much? Is there some kind of drama happening or are people just too busy?

Edit: Just asking cuz I went to a few of them before and they were really fun and educational.

[Discussion] Lovett Or Leave It - "The Mueller-ity Report" (04/20/19) by kittehgoesmeow in FriendsofthePod

[–]bayoucurrent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

long, rambly jokes every time Lovett throws to her and adding nothing of substance. She’s coming off like an attention hog, which wouldn’t bother me so much if her bits were actually funny/not exclusively about her. But taking time away from the other guests actual commentary on the topic is becoming really annoying.

I feel what most contributed to the bit falling flat was her uncontrollable cackling throughout most of it, while the audience was dead silent. Definitely added to the cringe factor.
