If the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien teach anything, it’s that the road goes ever on and on.

“Hmmm, my entire career has been based on Adam Sandler’s charity, and that well is only so deep these days, and I’m getting older and taking way less calls than the few I used to get... what can I do here? I know, I’ll go full MAGA pundit, claim that I’m being canceled for my perfectly normal and mainstream views, and

He had his slimy octopus testicles all over everyone, didn’t he?

Hollis! How could you?!”

Yeah, I always thought this movie was a real impenetrable mess until I realized I was just mixing up Twin Peaks and Northern Exposure again.

It’s crazy how you're looking down your nose at people for liking a director you don't like and have the audacity to call them pretentious.

After Howard’s death, Jimmy and Kim each rationalized their earlier behavior differently, with Jimmy coming to view their actions as necessary and justified (creating

And speaking of sloppy, maybe when you call the mother of your criminal associate— whom she knows got into legal trouble in the city that you had to flee and assume another identityto tell her he’s been arrested, don’t act like you, ostensibly a Cinnabon manager, have a thorough understanding of the difference

Something I just realized after finishing this episode: Jimmy is always at his most vengeful when people attempt to hold themselves accountable. Note how his true rage at Howard started when Howard confessed that he felt responsible for Chuck’s death. When Kim comes in to sign the divorce settlement, his performance

Subconscious self-sabotage, possibly. The kind of behaviour Saul Goodman would have berated a client over.

Jeff just gunning it straight into the back of a nearby car for absolutely no reason.

$6 a month and a huge catalog, no brainer.

Its been a thing in the comics this whole time.
