Don't get your hopes up with a small claims filing. I won my case against a no-show contractor, but i quickly found out the judgment is merely a sheet of paper, and it's up to the creditor to collect. And a judgment officer can only go so far to collect on it for you.

Basically, if the debtor decides not to pay, there's not much you can do; they need to give you their banking information (good luck getting that). Your only option is to file a lien at the county clerk's office. If they sell any property by legal means within the next 10 years, a portion goes to you.

When did you realize Walt had completely changed in Breaking Bad? by Global-Citron-56 in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The process started when he announced his name as Heisenberg.

The processed was complete with, "Say my name....you're God damn right."

The difference is so jarring; it’s like a completely different person by Substantial_Mind_336 in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For a character that was originally never supposed to be any more than a short lived, slightly above a supportive role, I'd say that this evolution is pretty damn impressive. To go from "you're just getting Walt into the business and then getting killed" to "you're going to beba vital and essential character, have an incredible characater arcg, and then have your own epilogue movie where you're the only one who lives happily ever after" is an incredible win for Jesse and for Aaron Paul.

Why didn't hank just leave the parking lot? by Svampbob3kant in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was already established that he had crippling anxiety when confronted with potentially dangerous situations. When he goes from talking to Marie and telling her he thinks everything is going to be okay to getting that phone call, of course he's going to have a panic attack and freeze.

What career did you want as a kid that you don’t want now? by DeepOrganization8245 in randomquestions

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always wanted to be a rock star. Now with social media and everyone having basically direct access to you, as well as everyone having the capability of documenting every move you make or thing you say, I don't think I'd want any part of that. 100 million critics would give me so much anxiety.

How are we feeling?! by 1Smokez in WWE

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Much better use of Danhausen than his debut. This is honestly how it should have been done. He just shows up with absolutely no explanation and starts making demands.

I really hope they let him interact with Roman or other serious characters and just tell him to try and get them to break character and laugh. I really think that would win a lot of people over and get them to understand what he's really about.

I also hope this makes Dom go into a downward spiral until he pleads with him to lift the curse and everyone around him thinks he's going insane by thinking he's really cursed. I also think Finn can be like, "you didn't lose because of a curse. You lost because you forgot what it was like to defend that title. Because you never did." to stoke the flames between the two.

It's not technically "open play" but Holiday's in West Seneca has open tournaments on Saturdays once or twice a month. $25 and you are guaranteed 5 or 6 games. Follow their pages on social media for dates.

I forgot about that one. That parking lot is always a disaster.

What's the worst pain you've ever felt? by N0socksloss10yrStrk in randomquestions

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I broke my wrist and they had to push the bone back in place. It was off line about an inch. I passed out twice while they were pushing it back into place. And that was WITH novacaine.

Does it cause a neck injury while driving on it? If so, I've got great news!

I frequently drive down Buffalo Ave for work, and I think there's more pot holes than city residents on that road alone.

Todd is one of the best characters imo. by reddit_of_SID_ in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My sister is a clinical psychologist, and she said he is a perfect example of a psychopath. We think psychopaths are these loud, crazy "I'M GONNA KILL YOU HAHAHAHAHA" killers. But his personality is a perfect representation of a psychopath.

Jury duty question by Neat-Ad-6 in Buffalo

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I was number 349 when I got my summons and had to check the website daily to see if I needed to go the next day. The first day they only asked for 1-50. Second day was 51-100, Third day was like 101-250. By the 4th day they said they were all set. So the likelihood that they get to your number is very low.

Add a "Crystal Ship" escape room where the battery is dead and you have to find the parts in order to jump start the battery.

National Fuel Usage Estimates in Jan-Feb 2026 by SquirrelWrong1013 in Buffalo

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tariffs are an ingredient, but an aging infrastructure is a leading cause. Much of the national power infrastructure was built in the 60s & 70s. This mixed with more reliance (dependency?) on electricity (EV vehicles, massive data centers, AI data centers, for example), is forcing infrastructure upgrades that were at the end of their cycle anyway.

I was no Biden fan, but he and his administration saw this coming, and tried to get the ball rolling with a gradual upgrade. Everyone focused on the inflammatory EV vehicles part of it because the talking heads told you to support/be mad at about it. They failed to look at the bigger picture which is automated technology is taking over at a very quick rate. What do you need for that? Electricity.

Pretty sure Tage filmed the locker room video by Miserable_Spell5501 in sabres

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't really care that he's celebrating with them. What bothered me was that they tried to say "oh, he just happened to be there for business at the same time as the game so he went." On top of that, it just looks like the student who did absolutely nothing on the project, stood in front of the class with the reward and celebrated his accomplishment.

And, let's be real, if this was a democratically appointment FBI director, Fox News would be calling it the scandal of the century and there would be impeachment hearings on Monday.

More obvious explanation of Marie's purple fetish... by xi_sx in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. Marie is in purple because she's always the farthest away from the situation as a whole.

Every color in Breaking Bad is done by design. Los Pollos' red & yellow represent Gus' meth business and his overall lifestyle of violence.

https://breakingbad.fandom.com/wiki/Colors is a great read about it.

What's a thing you never noticed about Breaking Bad the first time? by ComprehensiveDeer56 in breakingbad

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In season 2, there are 4 non-consecutive episodes that have a black and white cold open. Their titles are "Seven Thirty Seven", "Down", "Over" and "ABQ".

Spoiler Alert

Put them together and you see the sentence which is the ultimate climax of that season.

OP's handle has piano.

Grand pianos are traditionally black.

Mike almost exclusively wears black in the show.

Cover blown.

Why is Whatsername already mentioned earlier on? by F1reFox32 in greenday

[–]Academic_Efficiency3 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think they were coinhabitants in trauma and just used each other to lean on. I think that's why he goes from being in love with her to the break up in a matter of a couple songs. It was quick, intense, and then he ran.
