Thread 148969059

>Hey, I wanted to talk to you about... You know, I... feel bad, about what happened
>So, you're apologizing
>Yes. I'm sorry
>Okay. I don't forgive you
>....Herb, I said I'm sorry
>Yeah, and I do not forgive you

How would you continue the convo?

>>148969059 (OP)
pull the plug

>>148969059 (OP)
Fuck my crush's underage daughter.

Leave? What else do you want me to do?

>>148969059 (OP)
say "alright. bye herb" and leave

Thank them feeling sorry and getting atonement aren't the same thing. Ask if they'd like to hang out not ask to help (because he got on fine without you your not some white knight on a shining horse) Feel sorry keep feeling sorry that's the path to being a better person.

I doubt Bojack even actually felt sorry. When you tell someone you are sorry you have to mean it and I don't think he did. He just wanted to feel better about himself and Herb didn't give him that.
It's the same with that 'tell me I'm a good person' speech he did with Diane.

>>148969059 (OP)
Herb was an idiot, he got depressed his very first big project failed him and just stopped trying and became bitter and resentful, he thought bojack was his golden egg hen and that he was his property forever. bojack didn't have to apologize to him, Herb was a manipulative bastard and died like one.

>>148969906
No herb kept working after him. He struggled with hollywood and shifted his focus to charitable actions.

>>148969059 (OP)
>Ok, that’s completely fair. You still want to hang out sometime? I really enjoyed today

>>148969935
all bastards go into charity when they are about to die because they know they have wronged people too much.

>>148969959
>when they are about to die
did you even watch the show? That wasn't something he started doing in the last 6 months.

>>148969059 (OP)
"Oh okay. Bye"
>>148969959
Herb himself says he lived a good life, he just wished Bojack had talked to him once in the past 20 years

>>148969959
kill yourself

>>148969755
Based

>>148969981
Majority of BoJack threads are infested with posters who've never watched the full series.

>>148969059 (OP)
I would do what Bojack should have done which is walking away. Which ironically might have been the only thing that would have made Herb change his mind over Bojack if he was willing to accept that.

>>148969059 (OP)
This is truth. The wealthy are like insects. The wealth inequality and the economy imbalances with low-income society is not en issue until they see how they will be remembered when they die. Most will be hated, and justifiably. The rich can attempt to make amends with paltry charities that get allocated to banks and aldermen in low-income counties but the people will never get real help like championing free healthcare, union work, and affordable housing. All these things we have in access and we choose to let it rot.

>>148969059 (OP)
>Bojack
What did we learn?
That asshole be assholes?
Retarded ideas make money?
Love is dead, so whore it out?

>>148971017
Literally how nepo-baby Holliweird is.

>>148969981
you know people can have cancer for years?

Still dont buy the reasoning. What the fuck did Herb expect? Hollywood was very antigay in the 90s and to expect your friend to lose his career over you shows how selfish and out of touch Herb was. He's a fucking asshole for expecting everyone to walk away from what they did just for him

>>148971040
Good point.

>>148969059 (OP)
NORMAL WORDS

>>148969059 (OP)
"You're an entitled ungrateful asshole trying to struggle session me for not endangering my career and you deserve this cancer"

>>148971075
He hoped for Bojack to say hi over the 20 years after that, and not wait for the last moment.

>>148971075
again, you people don't actually listen to the fucking show. Herb literally says:
>I didn't care about the job!

>>148969059 (OP)
For me, I would have said I understand and I at least hope you had a good day. I understand there is a difference between moving on and truly forgiving somebody for their actions. If I was Bojack my own ego would prevent me from doing anything else different.

>>148971006
Most poor people make their own living conditions shit due then blame rich people for it.

>>148969059 (OP)

>I understand. I didn't apologize because I thought it would make everything better. I apologized because I treated you badly in the past, and I don't want to treat you badly now.

Reminder that Bojack only "apologized" in order to absolve himself of his sins. Herb knew it

>>148969059 (OP)
>How would you continue the convo?

"You don't need to. I just felt like it had to be said."

and if starts ranting at me or some shit I'd just be like "Understandable. Have a good day." and I'd leave.

But if Bojack had that kind of confidence and self-security, there wouldn't even have been a show.

>>148971602
But what if he was actually le good, but then went to being le bad again because a real le bad person liked your show?

>>148969059 (OP)
I'd say I understand, probably apologize again and leave. I'd feel sad but it would be my own fault, and in a way I got closure.

>>148969059 (OP)
I wouldn't apologize in the first place. I was a young person pressured and manipulated by powerful Hollywood executives into staying silent, like damn near everyone in this shithole town. Herb lived a good life and the controversy didn't slow him down at all.

I'd make a public statement explaining this, and Herb could like it or hate it. But I did everything reasonable I could do.

>>148969059 (OP)
Okay, i understand.

>>148969059 (OP)
Accept that I'm not entitled to forgiveness simply because I'm sorry and leave.

>>148969059 (OP)
……Can we still hang out and stuff even if you don’t forgive me?

>>148969935
No remember how the show changed things when Weinstein said he liked the show?

Let >>148969906 be what the showrunners think viewers got from it.

>>148969059 (OP)
I like Bojack's outfit, he got that drip

>>148969059 (OP)
>"Well... uh... I'm sorry to hear that, then?"
>awkwardly leave
I'm not seeing much of an option that doesn't make things worse. I guess you could just immediately leave without saying anything at all, but still.

>>148969755
she was legal in the state she lived. not underage.

>>148969059 (OP)
"I understand, what i did was really bad you are in the right to not forgive me. I hope I can at least start to make it up to you in the future."
Wow it's so hard to at least fake the correct emotions in this scenario

>>148971075
He hoped his friend would remain his friend and not ignore him for 20 years.

>>148969059 (OP)
How many inches is he?

>>148969059 (OP)
I understand.

>>148971239
Those starving kids in Africa could be millionaires if they just pulled themselves up by their bootstraps.

>>148975406
He's hung like a horse.

>>148975406
Are we meant to take from this that he's fully erect?
