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.

Agreed. The intro flashback at the Cinnabon was great, and it's great to see McGill/Saul slowly become a bit more brazen.

I thought what was interesting about that scene was that this is a show about self identity, and when it's all over for our hero, he sees himself as SG not JM.
