I still can’t believe that Chuck actually brought up the floor pooping thing on his own, without even being asked about it. That was an amazingly dumb thing to do. That’s not even EQ vs. IQ, it’s just common sense. He simply cannot possibly be as smart as he claims.

He didn’t want the (alleged) floor shitting incident, which he’s been dealing with for years now, to be part of the story. However the one guaranteed fucking way to make sure it became the entire goddamned story was to issue a preemptive denial. You just can’t put that kind of bizarre fucking image into someone else’s head unexpectedly and then reasonably think they are going to totally ignore it. That’s the kind of thing that when someone brings it up out of the blue you are meta-physically compelled to ponder, deeply. The more aberrant and messed up it is the more fruitless one’s attempts to think of anything else. You are held in the mental imagery’s disgusting embrace.

This was 360, double reverse psychology, totally retarded. It’s like the old climbing clich, if you don’t want someone to look down you tell them to focus on the next hold, or look straight ahead. What you never, ever fucking say is “don’t look down,” because that’s exactly what they’re guaranteed to do next.
