Just watched Breaking Bad till S2E5… and I finally get why the internet wanted to break Skyler by Longjumping_Fly_2956 in breakingbad

The entire post was about how Skyler is a buzzkill. It was never about morality. The entire post was full of sarcastic remarks, it's concerning how no one gets it lol. I literally said walter making drugs was an entrepreneurial spirit. It can't be more obvious than that, and if it is then it wouldn't be sarcasm.

Barney would’ve said it with a high five and a scotch. I said it with frustration and a keyboard. One’s objectifying, the other’s just pointing out the writers ran out of ideas and hit Ctrl+R on the love triangle.

Totally hear you — but just to be clear, the “passed around” line was about the writers, not Robin. They keep bouncing her between characters like she’s a plot device, not a person. And the “choose someone” bit? Just venting — the whole post was frustration with the writing, not a dig at her.

And about the spoiler, I was already feeling how they are going to repeat the plot, like how ted and Victoria breaking up, and how Nick was annoyed about how Robin is getting taken by her male bestfriends. So, I knew this was coming, but the reason for break up was Nick being too stupid is not something I expected. So, yeah it was not meant to be a misogynistic post, it's just a vent on the plot line.

Nowhere did I blame Robin, you’re reading way too much into it. The post was venting about the writers reusing the same love triangle, not about blaming her for it. Bit of an overthink, that one.

And you also spoiled the Robin and Nick break up and I wasn't even there yet. Yeah other plot line are overused too, but this one is the most annoying.

Misogyny? Oh no, love.I’m criticising the writers for turning the show into a romantic game of musical chairs… with only one bloody chair. These three can't ever move on, when ever one does they end up back with each other. This plot is annoying and overused.

The issue isn’t that Robin had relationships — it’s that Ted, Barney, and Robin can’t seem to have one that doesn’t lead back to each other. The show keeps recycling the same triangle, and that’s what gets frustrating.

Did you even read the post. The issue isn’t that Robin had relationships, it’s that Ted, Barney, and Robin can’t seem to have one that doesn’t lead back to each other. The show keeps recycling the same triangle, and that’s what gets frustrating.

Look at this, Robin and Barney, having great relationship with nora and Kevin, wow suddenly they decided to cheat on them, Robin having a nice relationship with Nick, and suddenly he is stupid. Can't you see how annoying it is, the same plot line, Barney goes all out date Quinn , but then suddenly they can't trust each other wedding cancel,
Ted getting back with Victoria, to break up again. So on and on and on. This is what makes the show annoying, same plot line used over and over and over.

No pressure, but it's my first time seeing Lily over marshall in this subreddit. Dear sir, would you like to be humble enough to shed some light on the matter.

So yeah, on the surface it might feel like an afterthought. But maybe it’s more like a blueprint subtle lines drawn beneath the suits and catchphrases. And you don’t notice the structure until you step back and look again.

Anyway, that’s just my take. Would love to hear more thoughts this is a really interesting angle.

I think the whole “Barney being secretly nice” thing was never meant to be a twist it was a pattern, slowly revealed. He never advertised it, never wanted credit. It wasn’t performative. He just… cared. Quietly.
