For real. They then accused me of a being a stripper because I disagreed with their ridiculous "argument" and said I was obviously uncomfortable because they were "holding a mirror" to my sociopathy.

You need to revisit the Wikipedia page on irony. Cute riposte, though.

It's hard—I couldn't help myself several times in this thread, either.

Exactly! Hence the ironic title. Yes, he "breaks bad" on a totally superficial level, since he goes from straight-laced teacher to ruthless, sociopathic drug dealer, but that isn't because those tendencies were never present in his personality to begin with. That's the whole point!

Hahahaha. Oh man. Amazing!

There was a wonderful counterargument already proffered by Ari Schwartz, and honestly, you have no conception of discourse so there is nothing gained by painstakingly going through your profuse inanities.

Great comeback—your delineation, as I said, is based on plot points that do not exist in the entirety of the show. It sounds like there is much you need to review.

The misogyny criticisms come from the very vocal subset of people who wish physical violence on Skylar, and who criticize the actress for being "fat" and ruining the continuity of the show.

Yeah, you have completely missed the point of the entire show, since this is not at all the case. Skylar might be selfish at times, but Walt is a narcissist, and was when he was a Chemistry teacher. It's very clearly illustrated in the first two seasons that Walt is the source of his own problems.

I have watched the show from the beginning and also seen the actress on Deadwood and I would not have known she had gained weight in any capacity if I hadn't seen the linked article here. Reading those comments was pretty disgusting, with lots of concern-trolling about how the actress has a duty to maintain…

A+

No, this is not what the show is about. The title of the show is certainly ironic, which (along with basically every plot-point from season 1 to now) has clearly gone right over your head.

This person had an "argument" with me and claimed that all women who work as strippers are actually sociopaths, and that this was a medical fact because they worked in psych and knew, somehow. This person is a troll, and I would bet money they do not in fact work in any sort of psychological field.

THANK YOU. You have clearly watched, absorbed and "gotten" the show in ways The Adlerian and other commenters do not. Anyone who says that Walt was a victim to those around him in the first two seasons has not been paying attention. Good people don't suddenly wake up and become amoral narcissists, and the same is true…

You clearly missed a lot of plot points in the first two seasons, so your argument is basically built on sand.

This is one of the better casting suggestions in the thread.

This is some phishing bullshit.

This. I would totally pull this if it meant Sweden would allow me in.

Whyyyyyyy?
