Anti-hero

An anti-hero is a protagonist who we watch take the inversion of the classic heroes journey. Hero's learn benevolence, anti-heros become increasingly egocentric. Hero's protect, anti-heros destroy. Hero's rescue victims, Antiheroes create victims and perceive themselves as one. Hero's are reliable narrators, anti-heros are not. As a hero grows into his cape, as it were, we find the anti-hero's ego outgrowing everything and everyone, eclipsing everything else.

A hero is a hero in actions, he doesn't need you to know it or tell him so. An anti-hero needs you to validate how hard they had it and how they moulded that into gold- They are walking contradictions, and the journey ends when their egos become so massive, they collapse in on themselves like a dying star. In a parallel universe, our hero takes that place in the sky.
Oy cunt, check out the lyrics of Taylor Swift's song ANTI-HERO

I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift
All of the people I've ghosted stand there in the room
I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices & vices
I end up in crisis (tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
'Cause you got tired of my scheming
(For the last time)
It's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me
At tea time everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Chilli hero

Is a person whom no matter how hot the spicy food is they are eating, claims; " Oh it's not that hot" or "there's a little bit of spice to it but not that bad". Meanwhile you are sweating bullets.

This type of person will never admit a chilli is too hot for them despite displaying any physical evidence to the contrary (sweating, going red, etc), hence a chilli hero.
"Fuck this Thai red curry is hot!" exclaims Havier while he orders his 3rd Chang and considers calling the fire department.

"Spicy?! Why don't you grow a pair, Havier?" says Andrew as he discreetly shits himself.

Havier smelling something stronger than bullshit, replies "You truly are a chilli hero Andrew"
