What... the frick. Are you serious right now? Nothing in the series suggested that cooking meth is a complicated chemical process that requires a talented chemist to make adjustments for? A major premise of the show is that Walt is the best at cooking meth because he is a genius chemist. They even get into how Walt was on board to be a multi-millionaire, how another brilliant chemist (Gale) idolized him, how other chemists tried to duplicate the process but couldn't, and how Jesse, despite knowing the recipe and having been under Walt's tutelage, couldn't replicate the purity precisely because it isn't just a recipe.
Jesus tap-dancing Christ you have to be trolling now. If you aren't, you are the most thickheaded, imbecilic poster on this board
This isn't persuasive to me at all. I mean, I do appreciate the South Park reference there, but you're making a circular argument.
"The difference in purity makes sense because there's a difference in purity!!!".
You can say that nine hundred times and with every forceful modifier in the book, and it's still an unpersuasive argument on a nice day. I mean, you and the other fella disagree with me pretty strongly, but several others have given me a head nod. What I'm saying is pretty far from ridiculous. But I thought we already agreed that we weren't seeing common ground and to call it a day on that point?

In other words, it appears you are trying to find stupid shite to sling at the show but have no real substance behind it and are trying to rile up the others on this board for no purpose other than to rile them up. This appears to be true given your complete inability to see where and/or your willful ignorance as to your argument that Jesse's inability to cook as pure a meth as Walt is a "problem" with the show isn't actually a problem and has been explained time and time again both in this thread and on the show itself.
Just stop. Breaking Bad is not your favorite focking college football team. Where I come from making a thread about points or plotlines from a (legitimately awesome!) show that you dont' believe or buy into isn't "slinging shite".
I mean, Jesus titty-fricking Christ. Have a quaalude.

I'm not making a circular argument at all. I'm saying that even the scene that you claim "doesn't make sense" is an illustration of the point that you can't grasp.

There isn't a point to be made here. That's the problem. The plotlines illustrate that Walt, and only Walt, can make the meth with the level of purity he makes it. Even if there weren't a point when the show explicitly stated that the reason only Walt can make it that well is because it isn't a simple recipe to follow, you can deduce from the context of the show that the reason the only one who can create such pure meth is Walt is because of his knowledge of chemistry and issues that go along with the process of cooking meth.
If you want to discuss bad plotlines or poor characters, fine, but to say shite like: Jesse was poorly acted by Aaron Paul despite him winning a fricking Emmy for the role and that the fact that Jesse couldn't cook as well as Walt is "completely absurd;" is so empirically wrong that it is no wonder you were laughed at. Your valiant defense of your opinions is so blind that it has become almost a parody.
You want to say how dumb Marie's klepto plotline was? Fine. You want to say how ridiculous the ATM scene/ordeal was? I can see that. But claiming what you've claimed in your OP is flat asinine.
