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.

there wasn’t one jersey in the scene at the house after the old lady’s funeral, and we both know they’re standard formal wear in lower class philly.

Finally caught up on this show and read through this thread. Of all the takes, this is the wrongest. It's somehow startlingly wronger than trag's Siobhan takes. Which is impressive.

Except for the Siobhan character - I see nothing not to like
