No Sleep Till Hades. On a white, plush, cloud-like pillow whose sole purpose it seems is to dissuade me from lying on it. The very thing seeing it makes me want to do. Is this an act of cruelty or self-preservation? On...

Huh. Now this is interesting. And by "interesting" I mean, "I really hope I never show up to someone's house and see an entire room wallpapered in blood splatters." That's, like, some psycho housewife shit. Some Kathy...

Well here's your answer: No. Not even the country bumpkin flowers and granny pastels of a cross-stitch sampler can make Walter White look any less badass. Breaking Bad's chemistry teacher/meth brewer extraordinaire makes...
