What is Brad’s expression meant to convey?

me inside the device, tightening the wire

he's thinking about dinner later.

>I just closed my account at the Bank of London and am now walking purposefully away with a suitcase of money, confident that none of the Mexican cartel men will ever find me and unaware that a crazy white woman has hired assassins to track me to Eur-ACK!

You should watch the film if you haven't. Brad Pitt plays this accountant having a midlife crisis. He goes to a rave, tries and fails to score some coke, ends up standing there in a suit like a weirdo while everyone vibing. This part is pretty hilarious because the dude in the pic comes up behind him and starts fistpumping and asks who his favorite EBM artist is and Brad Pitt's character is like "uhhh I like all of em".

It's scary that this could randomly happen to you at any time when you're walking down the street.

Just cut your head off before the wire can strangle you.

Why is this place so obsessed with this scene

>>220015112

Brad Pitt really was in an episode of Jackass.
He played a skit where he is outside of a theater or something, random people noticed him, start talking to him, and then the Jackass crew show up in a van, yell at him, then they get into a fight and kidnap him.
I think Pitt also dressed up in a gorilla suit and ran around with them jumping out of bushes and chasing people.
It's been a very long time since I saw it though.

Presumably this is merely a coincidence but yesterday I was biking home from work and this Jackass scene popped in my head all of a sudden especially the comment that they managed to land Brad Pitt and chose to cover his face with a monkey mask. I thought about this for at least 7 minutes, mulling over the scene and wondering if prime Brad Pitt was acquiescent and diffident to the Jackass crew, willing to just have mild zany fun but telling them quietly and seriously with a trace of fear that he wouldn’t do any of the crazy stuff and to sort of watch out for him. I am not sure why this entered my thought processes and I can’t think of anything that I encountered that day or even week or month that would elicit this memory. Sometimes I suspect that there exists a sort of mild mental link with anonymous people on a global scale and some purported and dismissed “coincidences” are in fact shared thoughts that apparently spontaneously arise but are really originating from an external mind. When I consider this I find within a day or two or three that my ear(s) will sometimes ring and when I hear that buzzing I start consciously thinking specific thoughts, focusing on a mantra or sending a message of peace and calm joy just in case someone else is picking up my signal. If it is some sort of extraterrestrial being or technology picking up my thought reverberations I believe that my positive thoughts may actually prevent an invasion because they will see that I have no aggression and I am an ideal of our species, not to be attacked or yoked but rather respected at a distance. In this sense I have possibly contributed to the savior of our species and planet countless times or at the very least delayed an invasion. Alternatively I’ve sometimes wondered if I should think violent threatening thoughts and exaggerate our technological prowess and bloodthirst to scare them but this seems disingenuous and an unwise risk. For all I know OP is one of them.

Reading The Dark Tower kind of changed my whole outlook about situational awareness and the idea of being attacked and dying while feeling righteous rage instead of mindless shock and fear.

It can be tiring but when I’m around people I’m always at 80% and ready at any moment to go to 100%. I am always casually scanning around and doing things like counting the steps and memorizing the floor plan to emergency exits (especially on planes or crowded spaces) and looking for improvised weapons. It was at first sort of exhausting but now it is simply reflexive.

Last weekend I was at the urinal and there was a black guy who came on and washed his hands first. I do NOT relax around blacks so I used the reflection off a piece of chrome to watch his shape and ensure he wasn’t going near me. During COVID I was biking to work a lot in the dark and I would spend my long commute thinking about survival scenarios. I eventually made caltrops out of bent and soldered nails and kept them within reach in my pannier along with bear spray in my front chest pocket and a knife in a purpose built zipped pocket in my sleeve. When I bike under bridges I zigzag in case someone tries dropping a cinderblock or whatever and there are times where I lower my head because I expect a wire strung across the trail.

Sometimes homeless or sketchy people have confronted me and I remind myself that the point is to defuse and avoid conflict not instigate it through aggression. But there have been a few times where I had to basically false charge like a bear and feign psychotic behavior to call their bluffs. The thing is I had to commit myself wholly to following through and when they ran or cowered it actually took all my discipline to stop myself from physically attacking them once I started up.

The whole point is to look casual and relaxed not like a paranoid squirrel. My coworkers, friends and family have no idea that I’m always reflexively calculating odds and anticipating.

FUCK YOU
