There's a lot more tolerance for drug use in the tech world than the legal world, though. If someone is a brilliant coder who occasionally shows up to work speeding, they're likely to get a talking to and (hopefully) an offer of help, whereas a lawyer who did is likely to be suspended or fired. We've seen with Chuck

I assumed that the random is someone who knows the couple offline. You'd think the number of people who have the wife's number and also recognise the husband's penis is pretty small, but I suppose she could be a real estate agent or someone else whose phone number is easily obtainable. The random would still have to

She changed her mind right after the confrontation with Howard over what she did to Chuck, so that could be it.

He did a lot of insinuating that she just didn't care about them: 'I'm sure she's asked you what you want', implying she has lots of money, and so forth. He could have suggested to them that they talk to her and that she doesn't realise how they feel, but if they got together calmly then they'd probably end up having

The problem there isn't a shortage of lawyers, it's that public defenders are paid really badly.

Yeah, his advice to settle was perfectly reasonable. The problem was that when Irene wouldn't take it, he took her friends from her, including by implying that she was rich by pointing out the shoes he manipulated her into taking.

Although now writers know that everyone knows that, even if they've never heard of Chekov, so they do it as a misdirection.

It'd also take him ages to get there, and his piece of shit car might not be much use. Whereas the bits of wood were right there.

My dream scenario for Kim is that she applies her work ethic to her talent for grifting and becomes a wildly successful con artist.

He could have aged badly, possibly as a result of Kim-like hours in his early lawyer days. The stress of an untreated long term mental health condition wouldn't help, either.

The deadpan hyper-competence is actually my problem with Mike, which I realise is probably heresy here.

I think I did that once, while driving home from a really exhausting late night job. I woke up when someone honked at me for running a red light. At the time I didn't really think much of it, but looking back it scares the shit out of me that I could easily have been killed.

I don't think sudden realisation would cause her to miss a gentle curve in the road, and then completely fail to correct. There was a huge amount of signalling that she was exhausted.

Me too. When it was just rocks and she was basically okay I was really relieved.

It's definitely a possibility, but I don't think it'll happen, for the following reasons:
1) Kim is way too sensible and straight-laced to work under the influence. Even if she wasn't worried about addiction, she'd worry about it affecting her judgement or someone finding out and it killing her career. If she does go

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO US????

I giggled uncontrollably at this.

I don't know about Dan, but my advice would be to try and start an actual conversation. Not as a lead-in to asking them out (yet), just as a way of finding out whether you like them as a person as well as eye candy, and whether you might be compatible in any way.

I don't think you over-reacted. Not everyone would have had a problem with it, but it's in that category of things that some people aren't going to take well, and he probably should have known that. And if he didn't, then you told him, so he knows now. It also sounds like you were reasonably polite and explained what

I hope it made you feel better about your life.
