    2. Crap. I was just about to go walk to my neighborhood Mexican restaurant to eat a gigantic meal.

      America is the only country in the world where poor people are fat. What does this mean?

      Whatever happened to the Fat Blogging revolution that Jason Calacanis et alia were into? I need to fast for a few weeks, I suppose. I’m not as anorexic as I want to be. LOL

    3. 5th grade much? You come off pretty stupid here. And let’s not ignore the fact that you ain’t so hot yourself, guy.

    4. Loren, this is one of the few posts you’ve made that I can say is over the top. You have great banter between tech giants, don’t sully that with personal bullshit.

    5. WOW. Reality Web Comments. Fox is greenlighting a pilot after watching this.

    6. Loren, I am totally with you!

      Tell Mike to stop being a Social Diva!

      Robert Scoble is Shit.

    8. Don’t you get it Loren?

      Michael LINKED TO YOU!?
      He LINKED to YOU?!

      You ungrateful man, you. How dare you!

      Michael. LINKED. TO. YOU.

      Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted? Doesn’t this mean that “you’ve made it?”

      Isn’t he giving you the street cred in The Valley that you’ve been craving?

      He LINKED to you man.

      get with the program

    9. Loren, you are an intelligent person and funny as hell. Michael Arrington appears to have been good to you, you should show him some respect and listen to what he is telling you in my opinion.
      I also think you are an idiot for making fun of the Robert Scoble’s appearance. Shows you as a shallow person.
      If you dropped the whole shel israel thing, and the other characters, and developed a character of your own for a puppet, and interviewed people and do what you currently do, I reckon the show would be much better.
      Having said all that, the videos are great and funny as hell, most of them make me laugh, except when you are being cruel to people.

    10. Ian,

      Cruel to be kind, Means that I love you.

    11. Ian- Loren does have a character of his own for a puppet.

    12. Haha.. This is great stuff! I love it :)

      By Tim on May 22, 2008

    13. To me, it doesn’t matter as much that Loren doesn’t like the way fat people look as it does that he puts this cinema verité slice of his life up here for us to ogle, hoot, or laugh at.

      It’s all showbiz, baby.

    14. Fat can be beautiful and fat can be ugly! Rembrandt Fat is Aristocratic, Robert Scoble Fat in Adam Ansel tub is Ugly!

      By Igor The Troll on May 22, 2008

    15. Perfectly put Igor.

      By Loren Feldman on May 22, 2008

    16. Um, compared to most he’s not lazy. Quite the opposite.

      Isn’t he always travelling, online 23 hours a day, interviewing and filming everyone and anyone?

      That takes ENERGY. That takes CALORIES. That takes BLACK SOCKS at the beach.

      By Chunky Chaser on May 22, 2008

    17. keep it up Loren.
      c’est ose mais bon, Loren tu donnes l’impression d’etre totalement transparent sur tes relations avec toutes ces celibritees du web, well done.
      You say it like it is even if you sound like an american barbar sometimes ;-]

    18. this site would be a whole lot better with a favicon.

    19. I firmly believe a ‘Real World’ reality show is in order here.

    20. how about not using this dump that is seesmic, hu? terrible quality, remember? i hate watching at mosaics. and funny to see that the API integration of seesmic into techcrunch is a complete failure, no ones is using it, except maybe le meur and i’m not even sure as the whole concept is pointless. i grant you the fact that, at least, you know how to speak in front of a camera, unlike 99% of nerds using it.

    21. You should have took him down Loren WWF Style ;-)

    22. I can’t see enough people using video comments to ever justify putting this piece of shit (seesmic comments) on your site.

      Lets be honest, most people are fat and ugly and don’t like showing themselvs for the ugly disgusting KFC eating slobs they are. that’s not my problem, though. See, I’m thick (like a bowling ball) and gorgeous, and I don’t need a bunch of desperate web2.0 women chasing me around the internet because I look good on comments. Just look at all the problems I’m having on twitter. The ladies love thedick.

      I’m seriously.

      By Dick on May 23, 2008

    23. Hahah.. this is just Loren doing what he does best. He is provocative and insulting, and calling him out on it is exactly the reaction he is looking for.

      If you are easily offended, you have no business reading his blog or inviting him round your house for that matter, I mean you are kinda asking for it in both cases.

      Scoble has a good sense of humor, so I doubt he would fail to see a comment like this humorously. Arington, I dont know about that, but again, if he invited Feldman round to his house -again- he must know what he can expect, none of these people are stupid -or- naive.

      Personally I think Loren is halarious

    24. Mike likes to be in control
