One thing that has always bothered me

Throughout almost 5 seasons, the thing that has bugged me most:

Why doesn’t Louie finish the pizza slice? He goes and buys a nice NY slice—which I’d kill for in my adopted home of California—and he just eats half. It’s out of character with his “fat” persona.

And to make things worse, he just sort of puts it down and leaves it there on a table.

WHO DOES THAT? Louie, you’re killing me. I know for a fact, from the bathtub scene, that you finish all your pizza slices.

It's just an intro of him going to the comedy club, he might be in a hurry or something. The theme is great, though.

Haha! That always bugged me, too. Plus, I think he throws it out, not leave it on a table.

Hey, I just realized that I posted this after seeing Season 5 ep. 1. But since then, in eps 2 and 3, the intro has been edited so we don’t see that part!

so weird this has bugged me also. It looks SO good. Who cares if he's in a hurry you can take it with you, plus Louie eats the first half in like 2 bites

The other thing that bugs me, strangely enough, is the clothes he is wearing. Somehow, they don’t see appropriate to nighttime on the streets in NYC.

Of course, they are -- or can be. But they are just not what I’d wear. It’s like he looks to vulnerable or something…like if someone messed with him, he couldn’t do anything. Weird, I know. I think I’d at least wear a hoodie or a denim jacket or something!

A fat guy like him would never throw half out. He probably ate the whole pie before that scene.
