      I find it ludicrous how they got paid more thank Karl for idiot abroad, and makes me wonder if Ricky just knows he's good for money. He knows he is funny and made money out of him, kind of disgusting. All I'm saying is if Karl was my supposed "best friend" I would definitely let him have more of the money for it, especially when I didn't do fuck all, just sent him places.

    Karl rightfully prioritises grouting over supervising the Bacon show on his day off. Unfazed by 8 missed calls and the host's interruption of his grouting he gets his gripe in, about his delayed pay, succinctly and without malice. An example to us all.
