    When you're successful and rich (enough, at least), this is a nice whimsical thing to say. When you're suffering in the trenches, this isn't very helpful.

    > The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question: "Is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say: "Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride."

      The title reminded me of this too, but it was Bill Hicks, not Richard Hicks.

        Bill Hicks was spot on for most of the things.

        Which is greater. The volume of water in the oceans or the volume of tears that I have shed?

    When the zeitgeist is overwhelmingly nihilist, dare to be an absurdist.

    I liked the shoutout to On Cinema at the Cinema. Truly one of the most hilarious and fascinating pieces of comedy in the last couple of decades.

    That's the only explanation that could justify how terrible Better Call Saul turned out.

      Most people, including me, beg to disagree. Better Call Saul was a masterpiece.

      I have watched it several times. Every time it hits different. It surely is a masterpiece.

      I couldn’t make it through Breaking Bad, but I couldn’t put down Better Call Saul. Different boats for different floats.

      I really enjoyed Better Call Saul and thought it was much much better than Breaking Bad. Walter White was such an irritating character. Saul was a brilliant hustler.

      I respect you shitting on something that is nearly perfect. Your hatred is pure and that makes it special.
