The second season of Louis C.K.'s latest half-hour comedy, Louie, starts up at 9:30 Central tonight on FX. If it's anything like his stand-up, his first show (Lucky Louis on HBO), or the first season of Louie, it will be a wonderfully and purposefully disjointed driving tour of C.K.'s head space, a dark, weird place I love to visit but am damn happy I don't live.

To gear yourself up -- or, if you're unfamiliar with his work, to gauge your interest -- I hastily pulled together five of my favorite bits from his career. Hat tip to YouTube for existing.

5. "There Should Really Be a Couple of Laws" Louis on naming kids.

4. "Thank God For That Shit" Louis on the magic of being white.

3. "Can't I Just Be Stupid?" Louis on women. Specifically, the wife kind.
