My assumption would be that his parents wouldn't tell anyone about his suicide attempt. So unless he had scars which hadn't healed by the time he gets there, no one in Russia would know.

That sounds like it could have been good if it wasn't about King Arthur.

Yeah, I have a friend who works for a CGI company and is in the credits for several blockbuster movies even though he didn't go any work directly on the movies. I don't know if it's industry-wide practice, though.

At what point could you tell it was going to be a bomb, though? Because if it was when you saw the trailer, that's years after the decisions have been made.

The giant CG-effects credits thing is partly due to everyone who was even vaguely involved in the work getting in there. Like, if you fetch coffee for the people that do the actual CGI work, you get in the credits. And given that blockbuster movies typically have more than one CGI company involved, you end up with a

I didn't think bro-y so much as ridiculous and cheesy, like if Michael Bay took over Game of Thrones.

Is it as terrible as the trailer made it look?

My basic point is that your job is made much harder by asshole salespeople who won't take no for an answer, causing potential customers to assume that that's what you're like. It's not fair, but it's what's happening.

I reckon about 80% of sex advice column letters falls into one or more of the following categories:
1) How can I avoid the easily-predictable consequences of this action?
2) How can I persuade my partner to do this thing?
3) My partner treats me like shit, what should I do?
4) I've been dumped/ghosted and want you to tell

I dunno, some people like the desert. I've seen offices where the only view is of a concrete wall two metres away, so just the fact that you can see the sky makes it better than some.

I did wonder if he was standing there tallying all Jimmy's breaks between calls.

When people say 'nothing happens', they're usually using a fairly narrow definition of 'things happening'. Lots of stuff happens in BCS, it's just that very little of it directly involves sex or violence.

Saul Goodman, in the law library, with a candlestick!

I used think that was a good maxim. Having been on the wrong end of a few too many insincere apologies, I realise it's actually pretty assholish.

Yeah, if he let Jimmy break the rules in return for having the most garbage, every day after that he'd have to argue with everyone there about who collected the most and why that means they should get away with all kinds of crap.

"How was your day?"
"I helped dispose of a dead body. You?"
"Oh you know, banking regulation stuff."

Not knowing who Ritchie Blackmore is is excusable, confusing Deep Purple with Pink Floyd, not so much.

I haven't seen Breaking Bad and I'm just going to pretend that all the previous commenters are trolling, and actually he retires to a farm.

Yeah, I've learnt the hard way that people like that are never going to say 'oh well, that's a really good explanation of why you don't want to buy our product, I'll be off now, thank you for your time'.
