But Princess Bride is so much more quotable.

Isn’t there a part in the movie where Westley talks up the advantages of wearing a mask?

That was actually a bit uncomfortable to watch. He is obviously struggling. From like 0:25 to 0:35 you can tell it is taking effort to get through that.

Kind of surprising to me, really. I would have thought when faced a really serious chance of death, he’d have an overwhelming sense of self-preservation. I never really thought all this political stuff would matter more than his life. Either he really believes he is getting better, or he has finally drank a lethal dose of his own Kool-Aid.

That look downward he gives about 0:26, to me, isn’t someone who thinks he is better.

It’s hard to say how logically he ever thinks, but he may be knowingly taking a risk to try to remain President and thus avoid jail. Personally I think it’s just stupidity.

They’d try anyway.

A lot of words come in mind when I see this.
Moron. Idiot. Imbecile. Dumbass.
Healthy is not one of them.

Being a coward and never having contemplated his own mortality, he’s probably in strong denial.

Can’t speak for anyone else, but during times I can’t breathe, the whole mortality thing far outweighs anything else. That’s some serious denial.

Yes, but you’re in the reality-based world, and, I’m guessing, not a narcissist.

You can argue with my ex about that…

Who, Christopher Klein? Never heard of him; I linked to that piece because the site itself seems unlikely to publish false info. This is off topic, but what else has Klein wriiten/trolled with? Are you saying I shouldn’t link to this piece?
