Everyone wants what they don't have. You have speed, I have weed. You're nervous about having pills you stole from your brother, I ought to be nervous about having something illegal, but I'm not because I'm stoned. Let's trade so we each get the right thing, you need to calm down, I need to be more paranoid.
I'd like to take some of my brothers speed pills and see if I can make some money on the black market, I'm tired of waiting around hours and hours at work to get paid whatever I'll take for my efforts.

Some people think there's no difference between a movie, a sports game/match, a show, or an event, and every day reality. Despite all the talk about egos, the reality is who somebody is on a stage, a field/court/ring/octagon/ice, or on a screen is not the same as who they are in every day life, no matter what you read/hear/see about them in a magazine, on TV, or online. There's a lot of illusion in many acts, since anything that isn't who somebody was as a kid is an act to at least some degree.

The poser would try both a newcomer image and an established image, in case one or the other failed. She was too much of a coward to fail as herself, failing was for other people.

The kind of person who tries to take control of other people's lives to gain the sense of control they dont have over themself and their own life.
The impulsive guy/girl didnt have any sense of control without the control being an attempt at control over other people and their lives. He/she seemed to think that he/she was the opposite of the hypocrite everybody else was, that he/she was freeing them from hypocrisy, when really he/she was as much of a hypocrite as anybody else.

Girl- What you see is what you get with me.
Guy- Well, I see a clown. I see a joke.
Girl- Then that's what you get, plus an egg to the face, and eggs thrown at your house. I'll say that Justin Bieber did it if anybody asks.

Look at that, she made a movie about herself, that's kind of like an artist that paints pictures or murals of themself around a town they're not even from. Despite all the people she tried to make fun of in life by calling them narcissistic, it doesn't get any more narcissistic than that.

It seems that even when some of the people in Belarus seem to want lockdowns, dictatorship, and authoritarian leadership, they're not given it. Countries under lockdowns seem closer to near-dictatorships than Belarus at this time.
