I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Ok seriously who didn't see that car crash coming?

The trunk full of sneakers was awesome. I figured he had already snooped her condo and learned her shoe size but man he went WAY deeper than that.

I'm beginning to think Chuck doesn't die, he just gets his ass handed to him in court and ends up alone, penniless and possibly committed to a mental institution

Great finale, indeed. The little peck on the lips that Kim gave Jimmy near the end of the episode was as powerful as anything else all season. Maybe because we see so little affection between these two---so much so that there was a brief debate in this thread a little while ago about whether they were actually a couple at all. Obviously, that was intentional, and came together well right there.
And everyone upset at Jimmy for the way he manipulated the old ladies can forgive him now, right? He's not Saul Goodman, yet. Redemption

maybe that informs us of where Saul's line is drawn? I can't recall an instance in Breaking Bad where he intentionally manipulates someone into ruining their personal lives. The closest would be the ricin cigarette switcheroo or convincing jesse to leave town. Saul seems to be more about loopholes
