Anyone else notice that he is wearing exactly the same shirt that he wore 30 years earlier in the Holiday in Cambodia video?

Yep.

[@jasonzcomedy]

My sister LOVES Portlandia and I watched this with her. When I saw Jello, I flipped a shit and she was like "who's that fat gay guy?" -____-

[@InAConundrum]

This was filmed in September 2013, on the same day that Kim Gordon was performing with Body/Head at Portland's Time Based Arts festival (hence her cameo.) As far as I know, she was only in town for that day. I later went to that gig and actually ran into Jello at the venue's makeshift bar, and my friends and I got a picture with him. He was wearing THE SAME SHIRT as he was in this video, and looked exactly as he does here. Great memory.

[@guitarofdestiny]

Jello adjusted astonishingly fast to the modern world. He's completely unphased by modernization but is annoyed at all the hipsters

[@milascave2]

alex; I mean, 1986 was already modern. Now, if he had suddenly zapped from 1986 to San Francisco now and saw everybody walking around staring at a screen, he might be kind of weirded out by that.

[@chryssoraidy9838]

he's a performer. it's what he does. And this isn't acting, this is him playing himself. lol

[@camerondailey2627]

I mean, most of his vocal performances for the Kennedys are VERY theatrical. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he could pull off an Oscar winning performance, if he cared about it enough.

[@DinoVeritas]

This is exactly how I feel walking around the gentrified corporate hell-hole that my hometown of Baltimore has become.

[@PMinPhoenix]

DinoVeritas I just read in an inflight magazine that Baltimore has become the "it" place to live & work for millenials...so your point still stands.

[@MilwaukeeF40C]

Baltimore is a god awful mess. I saw the fiberglass pile too. What's with that anyway?

[@lildeformity2228]

Mister Guy gentrification is just pushing people out of their neighborhoods, I’m in Baltimore it’s happening everywhere here

[@djargus]

@@lildeformity2228 I agree. Mister Guy, gentrification isn't good, it's kicking out poor people out of neighborhoods and replacing them with wealthy people. The "improvements" don't come from helping people who need the help, just kicking out the existing population and replacing them with people who have more money. The poor people then get kicked out of their own properties and thrown onto the streets, probably will start begging you for money, Mister Guy.

[@somekid7]

People really give up on fighting for what's right and act like they've "grown up" when in reality they've just chosen to ignore the suffering of others and convinced themselves that suffering is self-made. It's pathetic.

[@robfalgiano]

@@somekid7 Yes, many people do give up the fight at some point. But fortunately there are a lot of good people who maintain their idealism and do what that can to make things better in whatever circles they inhabit. They do the right thing by others because it’s right. And a lot of them do it without attention or accolades because they choose to be the change they want to see. Those are my kind of people.

I love how this show can casually make fun of all sides of an argument: the obvious way it makes fun of yuppies, and the more sly way it jokes that the gutter punks aren't necessarily brilliant world-changers either (like when Jello asks, what happened?? And they respond like, DURR we're drumming)
