i actually unironically love the physical fights that walt and jesse get into on the show because they are so realistically stupid and ineffective. their verbal arguments can really sting because they both know which buttons to push, what kind of insults to fling once they know each other better, but their physical fights remain laughably pathetic until the very end. neither walt nor jesse are particularly strong or skilled, so it always devolves into kicking and slapping and throwing things and fucking biting each other like cats who have to live together and spend all day throwing each other into walls. they fight like preteen siblings, like brothers who have no outlet for their rage and frustration with each other and thus have to wrestle and throttle each other when their feelings boil over. and of course nothing is EVER resolved by their fights because when has a conflict ever been resolved by throwing cash at each other or wrestling in a meth lab?? but it feels so realistic and true that two emotionally compromised, devastatingly angry, extremely different men who are forced to work together at the fucking. Job of all time would lose their shit from time to time and go at each other like 11 year olds at a skate park
