It always amazes me how people overestimate themselves just to justify what they want to do. Unwilling to be judged, they keep up the façade for as long as possible. The author clearly loves this type of character dynamic, it reminds me of several other characters I know. I FREAKING KNEW IT, MAN! Not a fan of it, honestly, but if that’s the route they’re taking, so be it. HOLD ON, BRO IS FLEXING ON US.
