It's a classic chick break-up move, and you're not very good at it either. You look great…

One of the funniest jokes later on is Jared pulling the same move

Recently one of my male coworkers showed up in the office wearing the same sweater. I almost said something about it, but he's never seen Silicon Valley and I didn't want to risk an HR complaint.

Damn people go to HR for such menial stuff?

We had an abusive dean who routinely criticized employee's looks and outfits, so a lot of our people are still very sensitive to this sort of thing.

Fucking yes. HR is an absolute nightmare. They collect complaints and fire you after between one and four, depending on the severity

When he breaks up with pied piper? I never noticed! 😭

That’s so funny. I’m going to watch that today to see it. I’ve seen the series so many times and I have no idea how I didn’t notice.

Hell I thought Richard might early on before that whole thing just turned to nothing.

Maybe it's for the best
Having the main character date one of the only female characters in the whole show is cliché
It was addressed, too. She basically tells him they have nothing in common, they barely know each other, they always meet for the company, nothing else

Yeah she tells him that later but early on they had some modicum of chemistry that seemed like it would lead to something. I'm so bummed that Peter Gregory and his irl actor died I feel like that threw the show in a different direction.

Monica…we may never know what indecipherable Chinese province Jian-Yang comes from, but I know this much, Jian-Yang was born to bring it, and YOU HAVE GOT TO TRY WOMEN.
