    Fuck Grandpa Joe and all, but the guy in Saving Private Ryan who stands on the stairs while his squad mate is being killed just inside the door usually gets my vote for biggest piece of shit in cinema history.

        Everyone thinks they’re better than those put regularly in high stress real life and death scenarios.

        Nobody really understands it until it happens to them. Unfortunately it’s the nature of the human brain.

        Everyone thinks a panic attack can be pushed through with sheer willpower too. They also don’t understand the difference between garden variety anxiety and a full blown panic attack.
