Geez. He's like 80% Benicio Del Toro and 20% Javier Bardem in irrational hair quantity. #adamgoldberg

He'd be a lot happier if he left the Eastside once in a while. #adamgoldberg

Does anybody else ever have the experience of seeing someone with a really thick beard and feeling itchy just looking at them? Why have such a thick unmanageable beard?!? I guess that's just some people's thang. #adamgoldberg

It's so hard to love Vice, but then you see something like this, which (I believe) is fucking hilarious. Goldberg's a funny guy.

Also, Epicly Later'd is probably the best internet television I've ever seen. Jerry Hsu and Kevin Spanky are gods amongst men. #adamgoldberg

I had always thought LA half-Jews love LA, never whine and never pine for New York. Learn something new every day. #adamgoldberg

Could easy tell that he was on Franklin, Fountain, and Sunset various times. As an Angeleno, he should know that it's best to stick to Asian food in this town; Chinese-Japanese-Indian-Thai-Pho-etc. #adamgoldberg

..What a non-hip L.A. hipster a-hole. He's sadly exactly my type. #LAKogiTruck

@snugbug: I was able to resist his whiny charm until he came down decisively as anti-Three Stooges, pro-Laurel & Hardy. (I also fall immediately for guys taking the proper side in the Elvis/Buddy Holly debate.) #adamgoldberg

@snugbug: I mean he should at least pickup the latest Zagat or read Jonathan Gold in the LA Weekly and maybe note that at least half of the places are Asian. You can't get this good sushi in New York much less the Atlantic; note Urasawa which is only omakase). I'm so over from my taco truck fatigue; second wind here. Kogi kicks ass! Los Feliz/Silverlake is faux Eastside. Eastside is truly east of the LA River: Highland Park, Eagle Rock, Pasadena, San Gabriel Valley, and beyond until the Inland Empire. He should freaking try Thai Town which is in neighboring East Hollywood. Adam must hit up Intelligenia and LA Mill for coffee in Silverlake. The gelato at Bulgarini in Altadena is better than most places in New York and you'd probably have to go to Italy to top it. And frankly, I think most New Yorkers feel comfortable in LA that's north of Wilshire, south of Mulholland, east of Doheny, and west of Bundy. Brentwood Country Mart anyone? #adamgoldberg

Commentariat in bullet-point form:

1. I have always irrationally loved Adam Goldberg. His performance in Two Days in Paris is wonderous.

2. He's specifically ranting in the video above about an Italian resto in Silver Lake called Speranza, and he's right on all points. There's also a popular hipster cafe on Hyperion Blvd. in Silver La-KEH called The Coffee Table, which I kindly advise you all avoid. I had the worst tuna salad of my young life there. It had 1,000 raisins mixed in with the tuna and no mayo or celery. I left it barely touched. Whoever chefs at The Coffee Table is an a-hole.

3. On ze other paw, Goldberg should also STFU and have dinner at LA Mill across the street from Spaceland before he proclaims all Silver Lake eateries lame.

4. If he's a half-Jew, I presume by his last name that it's the dad who's the Jewish Jew. Bummer then, because by Jewish standards Goldberg's only a faux Jew. [sad trombone]

5. This is the perfect Gawker post, because I simultaneously love and loathe everything about it. Whoever wrote it deserves a Cuban ham croquette at Café Tropical in Silver Lake. And a raise in salary. #adamgoldberg

@snugbug: I have immediate respect for you cause the Coffee Table is awful and no one else shares our opinion.

As for complaining about sandwiches and no where to get pizza, he should try the El Greco Cafe on Vermont. Spinach/Mushroom pizza is excellent. Excellent greek food. They deliver. He has no excuse. Its also next to Skylight books. #adamgoldberg

@snugbug: Amen on the freakin' Coffee Table. All the reviews were praising their turkey burger. I had their turkey burger. I've had many turkey burgers many places. This was the worst turkey burger I've ever had. #adamgoldberg

The whole time he was driving I was waiting for the flashback to his time working at his dad's bumper car concession. #adamgoldberg
