>takes good care of his mother

No wonder the Virgin Mary appeared for him. He's an upstanding citizen.

>>212319556 (OP)
He murdered an old defenseless grandma in her own home with his bare hands

>>212319599
She was a malignant cunt

>>212319599
And yet the Virgin Mary still appeared to him, curious that.

>>212319599
He's a volunteer euthanasia administrator as well? What can't he do?

>>212319599
He was taking out the trash. No wonder he was employee of the month.

>>212319645
OOOH!

not my proudest fap i'll admit

>>212319556 (OP)
I would have lliked to see him take on a larger role in the series... I guess Galdolfini wouldn't let that happen

>>212319556 (OP)
>takes good care of his mother
I guess he gave her those shoes that one time, but not much else

>“One of the only times an actor influenced a change in the script, and it wasn’t even their line,” Imperioli began, setting up the moment. “Makazian [John Heard] didn’t like Paulie. In the original script, he said he didn’t like Paulie. ‘Paulie was a bully.’ Tony Sirico read that and was horrified and was very angry that Paulie was labeled a bully. [He] went to [episode writer] Frank [Renzulli], maybe David [Chase], and said, ‘Paulie is not a bully! I don’t like this!’ So they took it into consideration, thought about it, and said, ‘How about psycho?’ And Tony Sirico said, ‘Fine.'”
>Another popular anecdote floating around for years is that Sirico agreed to do the series as long as Paulie never became a “rat,” aka government informant, as the actor had a criminal past and took the issue seriously. It seems that is most likely accurate, as Schirripa noted that Sirico said, “I’ll never play a rat.”
he was too sensitive an actor to be a main character with depth

>>212323233
Artists are supposed to be sensitive

>what do ya hear
>what do ya say

>>212323233
he was a man with principles, something you will never be jewrat

>>212319556 (OP)
I never noticed before how much of a negro nose he had.

>>212323733
He probably got into a lot of fights when he was younger

>>212323233
But Paulie was a bully.

did you watch the sopranos
have you ever taken an iq test

true employee of the month

>did you watch the sopranos

He killed that maitre’d with Chrissy in cold blood and laughed it off.

>>212319599
She hit him first, he had a right to defend himself.

>>212324008
>yes I can murder and maim the innocent, steal, be a degenerate pervert, a greedy petulant narcissist, a psychopath, a complete parasite, plan to steal from my dying boss, and plan to betray my boss and family for new york if they'll have me
>but I will NOT betray them to the police. I have a code, you see
I think you're the one who'd be a good jew, they got all these rules about how you're allowed to scam god by following the letter of the law

>>212319599
It wasn't his kid she was carrying.

>he was too sensitive an actor to be a main character with depth
>my tv show is heckin real!
is this ashkenazi madness or just the morning shift in tel aviv?

>>212324565
>my tv show is heckin real
yes exactly, that's what we're discussing here. tony sirico had a moral code that he could portray all those things, but not a character who'd turn on his crew for the cops. in a show where like 1 in 4 characters is an informant, that limits the storylines you can be in
I'm not joking about that iq test, it would clarify some things for you

>>212324712
remind me kike, was sirico ever an informant? would you say he held by his principles and was never portrayed as a zograt, or was he a bottom dweller like yourself? he clearly had a line he would never cross, a rarity in jew run hollywood. why are you so anxious to besmirch him i wonder?

>>212325103
why do tony sirico's principles say it's fine to portray a character who kills an innocent old woman so he can steal her life's savings. why couldn't he be even less jewish and be principled enough to avoid depicting that, or is not smothering grannies jewish behavior? I fail to see how selling out tony and the nj crew to johnny sack is any more ethical than selling them out to the police
if michael imperioli was a teetotaler who didn't ever want to be shot drinking alcohol, if van zandt didn't want silvio to be seen abusing women, the scriptwriters are unlikely to give them as much airtime because they lack the freedom to write the arcs they want. why did you like the sopranos, why did you watch the sopranos?

Someone agreed with me once, so I'm right: he saw the Virgin Mary because he was too retarded to be truly evil.

A mole on her ass?

What if, instead of having a midlife crisis, Tony got really into electroswing?

>>212325103
Had Paulie's principles ever really been tested though? You could say Phil's were. He sucked up 20 years because being a rat was worse, but Tony's guys never did serious time like that. Paulie's only ever seen doing a short term bid he knew he'd beat. If he faced a RICO indictment he might rat. It's easy to talk about not being a rat when you're not facing football numbers.

The forces of Heaven knew that they could scare him into becoming an agent against greater evils.

>>212326934
the actor said he never wanted paulie to be an informant, that's what we're discussing

>>212319635
Paulie was more attuned to spirituality, so there was an opportunity there. I have no doubt he's currently standing on his head in purgatory, while Tony is watching himself get shot in front of his family, in hell, nightly

>>212319599
She was a malignant cunt though...

>>212324091
guy was makin a move

>>212319599
She was a malignant cunt. And it was a pillow

>>212325997
There is something to this. Mentally, he's like a child.

>>212323918
He was also a bigmouth that played into Johnny Sack's hands and almost got himself killed by Tony for running his mouth to random hookers. He was as rat adjacent as possible without actually being an informant.

I know was ralphie told ma that joke. Had to put ma on Xanax just so she could sleep. She was in the hospital unit for an hour and a half with nervous bowels

>>212325997
I believe this, I also believe it's why Barry Berkman from Barry is unkillable until he earnestly repents his sin. God takes pity on him for being a dumb piece of shit from Ohio and grants him divine protection

>>212320127
I didn’t know it was actually a live woman, I always thought it was a statue or something like that, fascinating

>>212319599
A Canadian doctor/health care provider? God bless him

>>212319556 (OP)
He's not that much of a standup guy
I've seen his memory card, I know what he's been playing

>>212324091
Everyone begging for tips should be shot.
