He’s a disgrace to the profession!
Comment on And don’t even get me started about the Delta Flyer’s sunroof.

The meme really is a lot better if you’ve heard the rant before (major spoilers for Better Call Saul): youtube or piped

I recently watched that episode and I don’t think his voice has changed at all. I wasn’t 100% sure though until I saw this meme!

It’s one of those things from BB/BCS that is a very pivotal dramatic moment in the show but subsequently got memed to death, so the connotation in online use is generally different from how the scene was played. Same story of that short of Walter White falling over in Ozymandias.

I loved that show because I identified w jimmy as someone whose ambitions/aspirations where openly thwarted by those he cared about and was devoted to but kept the open secret from him. I hated chuck because it was clear he was acting on a desire for familial revenge; but then the writers in the last season made it clear that Jimmy is always in the wrong so now I just have ambivalent feelings about a show I loved and then deeply hated in the last 3 episodes
