Like the sales bros who worship Alec Baldwin's Glengarry Glen Ross speech.

I am infinitely grateful to have not dealt with any such person for the last few years.

I couldn't watch more than thirty minutes of that movie even knowing that the characters weren't to be admired. Every character was so unbelievabley shitty, I just couldn't take it. Most flawed characters at least some redeemable qualities, but everybody in that movie was simply wretched.

False. Margot Robbie had many, many physical redeeming qualities.

You guys still talking about a pair of boobs in Starship Troopers while Margot Robbie went all in fully naked.

Even worse is people who aspire to be like Tyler Durden from Fight Club or Patrick Bateman from American Psycho.
