What's Better Call Saul?

It sounds like one of the fifty ways to leave your lover.

I can't remember which film it was, but I watched one on DVD followed by watching it with the director's commentary. The commentary made me go from feeling the film was OK to rather hating it. The film maker was an idiot. I may have mentioned this in my "Flix" journal... or maybe not. smiley - shrug

quotes

>>What's Better Call Saul?

Icy, it's not what Swl linked to.
It's chronologically the prequel to Breaking Bad, although it is entirely its own show.

"It has garnered several nominations, including seven Primetime Emmy Awards, three Writers Guild of America Awards, two Critics' Choice Television Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Golden Globe Award. The series premiere held the record for the highest-rated scripted series premiere in basic cable history at the time of its airing."

Today's PH has been building a while...

People posting pictures full of "facts" about whether to stay in or leave the EU that are utter rubbish.
Especially annoying are the ones about how the country was before the EU, because, you know, the world itself hasn't changed a bit and leaving/staying will magically transport us back in time.

PH: watching a quiz programme, realising it's a repeat & I've seen it before - but not being able to recall the correct answers.

Today's PH: People.

Other people to be more accurate. I could get more precise, but it'd turn into a rant.

Suffice to say it's people who have a little bit of training and suddenly think they're an expert, and their "expert" views do damage to your reputation. And people who no matter what you discuss, go off and do their own thing.


Sometimes I consider selling up the big brew kit and moving back into the garage.

Ah well, see, if you're going to set up in a garage you'll need the Throgmorton vessels - ignore what Trading Standards say, what do they know? I hope you'll be using the Cholmondsley hops?

You're problem sounds like a sign of success.

Follow up on the "expert", their "views" were over-ridden and my beers were put back on sale, and people have been drinking them and liking them.

Still seriously considering not selling to these people anymore after I fulfil my current obligations. They're more hassle than they're worth and my beer's never put on in the best of condition.

Are we no longer curious?

I'd like to know why everybody in Westeros keeps flying into a murderous rage over the Wildlings when they clearly have MUCH BIGGER PROBLEMS!

Clearly the Wildlings are French, that would explain it.

PH: I hate when people say "passed away" (or some other euphamism) instead of "died". Drives me nuts.

Another PH - when two or more older people are described as having clocked up x years between them. A really meaningless statement.
