Rare three story episode and the first two didn't really seem to have an ending to them. But the punchline to the Marc Meron segment was great. Very funny and very true to life.

Pretty funny episode! Even though the bit about the blowjob for going to Ikea was kind of predictable, I still laughed when the scene changed to Ikea.

I liked the pharmacist (the gas station clerk in No Country For Old Men) asking the old lady all those questions about her bowel movement infront of everyone.

Now my mind is stuck on what kind of bathroom is Maria Bamford in.
Is it at an office? but then why is there a nice towel and toiletries there? Is it at her house? But then why is it in a stall with a door?

Another solid episode. That other comedian, 'I accepted last time... this time... you know... do you need something from me?'
"Let's not let that happen to us."
"Okay, Hossenfeffer."
Yet you're okay with "neither place"?

In real life, Maron and Louis were best friends, and at one point when Louis' career was taking off, Maron's insecurities and jealousies ended their friendship. They really didn't talk for a decade until Maron invited Louis onto WTF?. The podcast was in two parts, and the first part was them rebuilding bridges. It's absolutely incredible listening, and highly recommended.
With that in mind, I died when Maron revealed that Louis had apologized five years prior and forgot about it. What a great twist for anyone who knows the real story.
And the IKEA sequence was fantastic. Marc Webb, take note, that's how you do a fucking IKEA scene.

The webcast that Illeana Douglas has been doing in an Ikea for 2 years was blown away by this episode.

Surprised no one caught the nod to 30 Rock for the Ikea scene.

who was that blond chick who called Louie to say he has crabs?
I remember watching HBO (catch a rising star) in the early 90s and she was a super hot blond with a high pitch / squeaky voice.. glad to see her again. I guess she still does not look that bad - thinking they made her look all unkempt for her role on the show.
EDIT: found it Maria Bamford is her name.
