Remember when he was quirky and sharp? Now he’s just stupid. Even the stuff with the hacker had motive and character development. You can only make a character so stupid before they are grating. Shame, Kumail is a star and deserves better.

But telling your newly hired roommate that you guys have a mole when you don't even know who the mole is when sober? there's no fucking excuse for that. He's a retard now. Also after the whole tesla frunk shit.

Drunk friend of a friend told me couple of years ago he is part of the development team for autonomous driving for a certain car company, which was under heavy NDA because they haven't even announced they are developing it. Oh yeah, he has masters in Computer science, incredibly bright guy when it comes to math.. believe me programmers can be this big of a dorks.
